Let's take the pledge

[82bordeaux]

I think we should take the pledge to stop replying to any Ironbird posts. let's stop the madness and return or little hamlet where facts matter and excuses are for wussies.

I'll be the first to take the pledge not to take the bait.

Why bother? He's been good about keeping it contained in one thread, which is easy to just not open if you don't want to read his nonsense. If he starts spreading his manure all over the field, it'll be time for the ban hammer.

 

[Aardvark86]

I'd take it, except for one concern.

As life is now, there is a single designated ironbird thread, which is easy enough to ignore. We have, as the late, great George Kennan might have put it, achieved containment.

if we don't actually maintain our contained thread though, I fear that ironbird might break out and contaminate a whole host of other threads, which would be a much more dangerous outcome.

But we don't have to engage. Just let him die on the vine in his little sandbox.

If so I am in. If not it's off to Intermat for wrestling info.

Aardvark's point is that attention whores, if we don't him the attention he craves in his little sandbox, he'll seek it outside of it, which is much worse.

I too support the leper colony approach myself.

I pledge to not open a thread if it has anything to do with iowa.

 

[PSU Mike]

I gave that up for Lent last year, and it stuck.

Enjoy your hiatus from the board. 😃

 

[Psubiomed]

How to ignore a thread on this board though?

Put the Original Poster on Ignore.
Or just have the will power NOT TO CLICK ON IT.

I'm gonna spend more time over there myself.

[pawrestlersintn]

I think we need to designate one person to engage him to keep him in that thread. I vote Turk.

 

[PSU Mike]

I did not get a response from acuhawk when I asked if armbartilt is an “associate.” Think about what those posters have said over the last several years, and how they said it …

You or Lisa or GIAPet?

He's GIAPet. Lisa is his girlfriend.

Is there going to be any hazing for the pledges?

I put him on ignore a few months ago. Life's been good!

I will take the pledge and not respond except for certain circumstances:

1. I'm bored.
2. What I post will amuse me.
3. see number one and two

You won't be able to open any threads then.

I'm gonna spend more time over there myself.

Crap

I didn't even know he was still here. #ignore

[GogglesPaizano]

I am trying to think of the right analogy for IRONBIRD and what to do with him.

Virus - inoculate
Tantrum - Timeout
2nd Tantrum - Spanking
Vomit - Bag
Serial killer - solitary
Radioactive waste - bury in concrete
Wart - burn it off
Ferrari - Give him a mirror
Skid mark - bleach!

 

[FatWoodchuck]

I have o ly visited that thread since I saw he got banned, than a day later, it seemed, he was back. Won't be there again until I can read his comments that got him banned.

 

[86PSUPaul]

Well Turk just got himself a suspension for provoking after being warned. I wonder how long it is set to last?

If he runs his mouth over HR about the mods banning him here and plays martyr, they would be dumb for letting him back.

Oh, that doesn't look too bad. Count me in, but if I get a whiff of any farm animals, then I'm out!

To the penalty box!!

Do we know who the mods are here? Are they new? Seems they have been quite active the past week, but I don’t recall seeing any sign of them here since Hotshoe yielded the gavel a couple years ago.

I can’t; sorry. I’m like a fly when it comes to where I land.
