Post #194,850 by rcareaga 2/15/05 6:23:13 PM Reply	What A.S. said While I wouldn't miss marlowe for a minute were he to choke to death on his own bullshit, his drivebys are both infrequent and ineffectual (rather like having spitballs lobbed in one's direction from the other side of an eight-lane freeway), and he has left off with the silly "quagmire" graphic—though this was probably for reasons other than a tender consideration for the members on dialup connections. Few of us, I daresay, are seduced by his posts into following the screeds back to their source at Angelfire. He's harmless. I vote against the punitive treatment that's been proposed. cordially, Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist.
Post #194,990 by Nightowl 2/16/05 1:15:01 PM Reply	I concur with Rcareaga Marlowe is relatively harmless. If you think he's trying to lead you back to his site, don't go. Heck, I never do. Meanwhile, he has calmed down considerably and doesn't rant nearly like he used to, and sometimes he even says something that makes you think. Who'da thunk it, The Owl defending Marlowe...

If you want to talk here, talk here. If that's too much trouble, bugger off.

He can forward it onto Marlowe when he's done with it. -NT - (pwhysall) - (52) - Feb. 14, 2005, 06:03:10 PM EST

Perhaps we should start responding to all his posts - (tuberculosis) - (51) - Feb. 14, 2005, 06:11:03 PM EST

I like it. - (imric) - (50) - Feb. 14, 2005, 08:43:47 PM EST

He's interested in one thing: pagerank. - (pwhysall) - (23) - Feb. 15, 2005, 04:27:24 PM EST

not done in every post - (SpiceWare) - (22) - Feb. 15, 2005, 04:59:53 PM EST

Ah, but is the point of your post... - (inthane-chan) - (21) - Feb. 15, 2005, 05:31:57 PM EST

I concur with Rcareaga - (Nightowl) - (1) - Feb. 16, 2005, 01:15:01 PM EST

It's not about the *going*... - (pwhysall) - Feb. 16, 2005, 01:32:30 PM EST

I am not in favor of discipline as proposed. - (Andrew Grygus) - (16) - Feb. 16, 2005, 01:41:27 PM EST

Hey, publication bans happen all the time in the US too - (jake123) - (1) - Feb. 16, 2005, 06:03:20 PM EST

They do? Examples, please. - (ben_tilly) - Feb. 16, 2005, 06:44:35 PM EST

Another amusing point about the charter - (ben_tilly) - (5) - Feb. 16, 2005, 06:59:50 PM EST

I always figured she was a float(er). -NT - (jake123) - (2) - Feb. 18, 2005, 08:28:03 AM EST

No, gotta be something with arbitrary precision... -NT - (admin) - (1) - Feb. 18, 2005, 09:33:41 AM EST

Floaters are arbitrary - (jake123) - Feb. 18, 2005, 09:34:59 AM EST

Oh please - (Arkadiy) - (1) - Feb. 16, 2005, 04:32:37 PM EST

What Peter said. - (inthane-chan) - Feb. 15, 2005, 04:34:39 PM EST

You think his posts are really more than flamebait? -NT - (Silverlock) - (4) - Feb. 15, 2005, 04:59:09 PM EST

It may be a flamebait - (Arkadiy) - (3) - Feb. 16, 2005, 11:53:09 AM EST

Key point: - (pwhysall) - (2) - Feb. 16, 2005, 11:57:00 AM EST

So he prefers to keep his thoughts in his own place - (Arkadiy) - (1) - Feb. 16, 2005, 12:01:03 PM EST

I agree there too - (Nightowl) - Feb. 16, 2005, 01:17:06 PM EST

Also. - (pwhysall) - (1) - Feb. 15, 2005, 06:11:58 PM EST

completely disagree!! - (daemon) - Feb. 15, 2005, 06:06:16 PM EST

Dude, the debate's over. All wrapped up November 2. - (marlowe) - (10) - Feb. 20, 2005, 01:08:56 PM EST

Spoken like a true authoritarian. -NT - (jake123) - (9) - Feb. 28, 2005, 11:44:37 PM EST

If democracy is authoritarianism, then yes. - (marlowe) - (8) - March 6, 2005, 02:32:11 PM EST

The way you practice it, it is.... -NT - (jb4) - (2) - March 7, 2005, 01:27:21 PM EST

Practise makes perfect. - (marlowe) - (1) - March 13, 2005, 02:51:08 PM EST

And it really WOULD be easier if it were a dictatorship - (jb4) - March 14, 2005, 06:01:36 PM EST

I do not think that word means what you think it means -NT - (tuberculosis) - (4) - Aug. 21, 2007, 06:27:41 AM EDT

..and a passel of other words. -NT - (Ashton) - (3) - March 14, 2005, 02:03:34 AM EST

He only misinterprets 800,000 (or so) English words. -NT - (mmoffitt) - (2) - March 14, 2005, 11:26:01 AM EST
