    I think you’ll find copy and pasting on most other threads so banning it on here seems a strange, pointless and perhaps a personal thing to do, personal because kiwi isn’t the only one to copy and paste here or any where else.

    We all have the ability to scroll over stuff that we don’t want to read.

    Just like you’ve just done with this post.

    I think it's the mindless nature and sheer volume (and size) of Kiwi's posts that gets to me. If he wants to draw attention to, or promote discussion of, a certain article, he should post a link to it and give his opinions on it, I would say.

    Point taken but I reckon we all think some posters on here post long and mindless posts, probably true on all forums. As a reader you have the choice to read what you wish and ignore what you wish.
    What Kiwi posts often gives a different viewpoint here to the opinions of our posters.
    Personally I rarely read any long post, simply scroll over and move on, I find it easy to do.

    Nothing mindless about it
    I unluckily get to work up to 18 hours a day with an awful lot of downtime
    I spend a lot of that free time on here while you lot are in bed with nothing better to do than reading your posts
    I can't be bothered clicking on links which might take me nowhere(have you tried the express site)
    So I might post a few things that I find informative or amusing
    Read or dont
    Freedom of choice

    Don't have any problems with Kiwis long posts - generally read the first paragraph, and then decide whether to read it all if it's informative. Same with any other poster who copy/pastes stuff (and there's a lot of them....). YouTube videos - are they banned? Pictures - part of the censorship protocol? Graphs and pie-charts? Twitter posts?

    I tend to only click links if the subject heading grabs me. There's some informative stuff on this thread, and some dross. A simple scroll get's past the dross......

    Kiwi can post what he likes to be fair. We either choose to read it or not. Half of it is just pure propaganda ****e anyways. Keep up the erm...erm...work kiwi.

    It would probably make you happy to think of me having to wade through oceans of your ****e to try to find a post that had been taken down, wouldn't it? It was removed because it was racist, and you know it.

    To be charitable to you, you may not be racist yourself. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, and assume that you just copy and paste pretty much anything you find in your nasty world of right-wing propaganda. I cautioned you at the time that you really should stop and think about what you are mindlessly copying.

    Strolls thinks because he started this thread, he can censor those who's views he dislikes and caution any posters that upset him

    There are forum rules that have to be abided by. I merely cautioned Kiwi that he should stop and think about what he was posting. The post in question was subsequently removed. Not due to any complaint from me, I hasten to add. I have never made any complaint to the mods. If I object to anything, I will take it up with the poster.
