I usually check any thread that’s been locked (morbid curiosity) and came across the thread on flirting appropriately [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=550672&page=2](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=550672&page=2)

IMO, the age of consent is a tad high in the US. I’m 69 and these days 40 looks good, so I don’t have a dog in the fight.

**Cesario** is a one-trick pony who has mastered the art of shitting everywhere and leaving a backwash of ill-will wherever he goes. I am not calling him a troll, but if he were, he couldn’t be more troll-like.

The eccentricity of his views seems to have raised the issue of free speach with regard to his banning. I have no opinion on that.

But you’re not going to ban him, ignore him and STFU. The cited thread would still be active if a number of you hadn’t risen to the bait.

> 1. Having reviewed Cesario’s postings and compared notes, we now realize how frequently he posts about his sexual inclinations. Our rules state, “The board is not intended to furnish you with a forum for promoting your personal agenda. We reserve the right to ask you to limit postings on a particular topic, or to refrain from posting on such topics altogether.” We’re now invoking this rule: We don’t want to see any further discussion from Cesario about pedophilia. Attempts by other users to provoke Cesario into breaking this rule, or to make comments about him to which he cannot respond, will also not be tolerated. Thank you for your cooperation.
