He's obviously a die hard fan of the same stuff that interests everyone here and I see his comments always being put down and him being made into the rear end of everyone's jokes. Yet, I do not see him defend himself at the relentless insults.
I know, you will mostly say, "It's all in good fun" and "You don't know what your talking about". But I assure you, I've been a spectator at his expense for long enough to see how things are. I just don't see things being directed at him as appropriate. He's a fan and a collector, this forum should treat him as such. I'm sure no one here actually knows him IRL so no one should assume anything about him. In the end, you really don't know who's on the other side of that screen and how you may be making them feel. His comments seem innocent enough. And if they are misinformed, you should either be polite or don't reply to them at all.

Lol okay, no one, including me assumes anything about him. The fact is he repeats the same information over and over whether correct or not, he asks questions directly after answers to the question are given. He says he's a fan of this or that yet readily admits to having very little knowledge about any of the things he's a fan of.
Yes his repeated show does get annoying thread after thread and post after post. However if he is allowed to do that constantly then people are going to joke or insult the things he does on a consistant basis. Not because anyone knows him but because of what is being portrayed in front of our eyes.
So you can say he deserves respect all you like but after 3 years of this same dog and pony show constantly being done to death I ask you why exactly that might be?
