I must know this. I've never seen any hostile posts by him and yet people keep treating him like he was the worst human ever. What has he said that has made people be so pissed off at him?

Sometimes grudges seem to go on

Like we haven't had enough threads spelling out people's reasons already? Now we get a whole new thread to rehash it all again. *moans*

Just read the other threads and all the links and let things die down.

That's the reason I posted this in the first place. People just seem to be complaining about him even though I've never seen anything that would make anyone treat him this way.

There have been what can be considered hostile, or at bare minimum extremely abrasive, posts by him.

There has been speculation at least that he has used other screennames in addition to his current one, and that he used them to prop up his own positions on issues.

He at one point claimed that he was another user (DisgruntledPostman); he has since recanted that and given his reasoning for claiming it previously.

Um... what else was there? (Please note that if this becomes a(nother) bash BC thread, it will be deleted.)

I hope it doesn't become that too. I only want to know what he has done. In what threads did all of this take place?

A of D, why don't you just do a search on him? If you search by member number you'll get the last 300 topics he posted in. Pick a political one and you'll probably get more information than you wanted.

Many threads. Mostly controversial ones as I recall. If you're really interested, though, you should do a search on his member number, read his posts, then decide for yourself if you think they were out of place or offensive.

Er - or what Eljay said.

He also has had a history of deleting the threads where he behaved badly so it's extremely hard to point to a specific example. Though I have seen some remarkably cogent posts from him of late that surprised me with their depth.
