Hint: what’s the ideal lossy compression algorithm for English?

Moderator bait: I’m trying to get myself banned here, so please come and explain your algorithm so you can justify it :o

Why don’t you just stop posting? I know that’s a pretty out there suggestion, but if you don’t want to be a part of this forum why not just click the little X at the top right of your browser and be done with it? Do you really need to see yourself as some sort of internet message board martyr?

Did you read his other threads? He seems to think if he gets banned someone else will carry on in his path.

"If I am banned (publicly) I would also me ok with someone else starting an IMHO thread on my behalf, and continuing to discussion there. But make sure you understand the topic first " :rolleyes:

I don’t think he understands that low profile people such as himself tend not to get publically banned, but rather just sort of disappear.

It makes me think of the old joke:

Masochist: Hurt me!
Sadist: No.

I don’t have the patience to follow your links. Trying to get banned is certainly a noble venture, but not by simply baiting mods. You could take the chickenshit way out and just blatantly violate several rules if you want, but I get the feeling you’re trying to make some kind of point, or non-point, or anti-point, or something. So how about taking a minute out to make your point, or whatever you’re trying to make, and then I could either have your back, or ridicule you. But at the moment it’s all just random characters.

In the interest of recursiveness, I have moved this thread from IMHO to ATMB, where it should have been originally.

Considering his stated intent to continue to violate board rules, the OP has been banned.
