Sure, but his point was moronic and not supported by anything. Is your point the same? You want to be associated with points that are moronic and not supported by anything? ---

> [@Red\_Wiggler](#): > > When the poster is a smug and pretentious asshole without a trace of self-awareness, it’s the right thing to do. To be fair, that description covers a significant percentage of this messageboard at least some of the time, myself included. The problem isn’t “disagreement with a POV”. It’s disagreement with a fundamentally dishonest approach. Someone who constantly argues in bad faith, refuses to constructively engage and/or actively trolls ought to be called out on it.
