What we would miss..

“What would we miss.. if spock didn't spam us every day..

hMmMMmmm?”

“the way people feed him by making even more theads about how they don't like him?”

“Not a damn thing. He is just one poor pathetic dumba$$, isn't he?

Kind of sad really, in a way...”

“Bob, he said Spock,not Nigal. LOL!”

“Well, okay. That goes for spock as well as Nigal! ;-)”

“I'm with Nigal - why do people respond to his threads?”

“heh.. cos we used to think he would quit if we trashed him.. I finally figured out.. all he wants is to feel included..”

“maybe he should take a hike”

“Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Steve Hiker! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal! Ban Spock and Nigal!”

“yes yes.. I say we set up a chance for our favorite spamster to go hiking with all of us!”

“Meet me at Tiger Mountain this Saturday...10:00 am.”

“Because for whatever reason there are several people here who like spock, and give him enough positive reinforcement to keep him here indefinitely no matter what the rest of us do.

Plus, you know how behavior modification goes. Even if we did all band together to ignore him (an excellent idea, if everyone would do it), there is that "extinction burst" of behavior that would occur before he left for good, and that burst of obnoxiousness from spocky would no doubt cave someone's resolve, therefor giving spocky the attention he so desperately craves. +R dog training 101. Spocky isn't very different from a dog in that regard. You ever try to train a dog when 50 other people are slipping that dog treats at the same time? Can't be done.

The question I have is why does Matt not kick his worthless butt off this board?”

“Tiger Mountain spockie?.. hold on there.. this Saturday.. ??.. it won't be me.. too short of notice.. can you PLAN a hike, spockie?”

“BobK, why don't you just threaten to kill me like TownDawg did?”

“If death theats won't get a person banned, what will?”

“Spock, forget him.. talk to me!

Where is Tiger Mountain..has it got good trails?”

“Just east of Seattle next to I-5. Lots of trails.”

“Just east of Seattle next to I-90. Not I-5”

“Spock.. sounds great.. but it is four hour plane ride for me.. and money I don't have right now in front of Christmas.. I want to go tho!..

Maybe I will be the lucky winner of the "get a chance to hike with Spock" contest!”

“Threaten to kill you? Why would I do that? Your an obnoxiou piece of sh!t no doubt, but kill you?

Strange. very strange.”

“Yes I would like him on a boat, I would even like him in a moat. I could watch him fly a plane, why I could even watch him in the rain!

I like Spock, yes I do.. I like Spock, I do, i do I do!”
