I offer a small composite of one poster, who shall remain anonymous, but who has become a focal point of annoyance among a number of posters on this forum. Clearly an analysis and discussion are in order to effect a possible solution? Perhaps one isn't viable?

Clearly there are other posters like him/her on Political Talk and over time we should make a concerted effort to isolate them in the same manner because they continue to diminish us all and this forum, especially in eyes our general membership. This poster is a good start since this poster seems to be the most active.

S/he can't or won't respond to offers of reasonableness and civility. God knows a number of posters have tried to extend an olive branch to him/her only to have him/her stick it in their eye.

Perhaps this is all because s/he is misunderstood? Perhaps it is because we do not approach him/her in the manner s/he is so accustom? One simply cannot know.

So I am seeking suggestions from responsible political posters who might offer clues as to this poster's motivations.

For instance why is s/he always in an attack mode ? Is s/he just an angry person all of the time? Perhaps unhappy?

Why when s/he highlights someone's quote does s/ he do it in yellow? Does s/he do this to seek attention?

And why does s/ he resort with utter disrespect using vile names when addressing other posters?

Is her/his frequent use of expletives indicative of a deep emotional and uncontrollable response to the subject matter?

And why does s/ he ridicule people? Does s/he interpret people's responses to be condescending? Or is it s/he has feelings of superiority?

Why does s/he always use ? Does s/ he think him/herself always to be funny? Or perhaps s/he believes s/he always has the higher moral ground?

No one on this forum has shown him/her ill will but his/her attacks continue against a number of posters and it has not gone unnoticed.

The majority of his/her posts are unnecessary, annoying, non-contributing, argumentative and offer little in substance to the topic at hand .

Perhaps with more of an understanding of this poster's motives we can learn to co-exist? Perhaps not, and the only solution is to continue to isolate oneself from him/her?

If you are so inclined to respond no names please.

Private Best Regards:
Unfortunately, I don't think anything will change in regards to your post but at least you exposed the rude, condescending, nasty poster for what he/she is.
Didn't take long for him/her to rear his/her ugly head. It's really a shame that conversation on here has to be interrupted by such juvenile nonsense. I can't even begin to understand or explain why someone feels a need to act in that manner. It's seems only extensive therapy could reveal the answer. And to the poster who thinks no "competition" is the desired intent - au contraire.....I think lively, intelligent conversation from both sides of the fence is what most of us desire, not name calling and bullying which adds nothing to the conversation except to make the person engaging in it look like a fool.
