Hidell profile - For & Against

1.	The Plumber was a cancer on the site. Every day the illness was metastasising further. If he's gone, the patient has a chance at recovery. But someone that deeply delusional has to find an outlet for his own inadequacies. Maybe he'll find another. Maybe he'll return here. If he does, I predict it will be an easy spot. He just doesn't have the talent to run his menage convincingly. It's not clear whether Joe's departure was voluntary or involuntary. His account pages seem to be zeroed, which suggests action by the site administrators. I don't think ordinary users can delete their accounts in that way. It could be that Plumber was notified that his accounts were going to be deleted and tried to put a positive spin on it by making it seem voluntary. Or it could be that the site administrators zeroed his accounts after he had already left voluntarily. But assuming that his departure really is the result of administrative action, it's not enough for the site administrators to deal with Plumber alone. They have to deal with the causes of Plumber. The possibility of a new Plumber emerging has to be eradicated. That means, at minimum, an IP check has to be introduced into the site software. Alternatively, each user's IP address could be published along with their posts, but that might be seen as a privacy violation. read more...

2.	There is a torture quest in the game's most recent expansion which is genuinely sinister. It requires the player to repeatedly torture a helpless prisoner. This, and the scenes in films and popular television dramas which also depict torture in a favourable light, help deaden moral sensibilities and increase public acceptance of the outrages of recent years. read more...

3.	Agree. He has ruined it. Although I'm sure I said this in a previous debate and you voted against it. The Plumber goes or the site goes. read more...

4.	Joe the plumber is destroying this site with his epic foolishness and delusions of grandeur. He thinks he is some kind of genius engineer, but we all know that he is just a lowly sink swabber. read more...

5.	The Godfather films are some of the best ever, but the books were considered no more than trashy pulp fiction. read more...

5.	I have to say you are perhaps the most pitiful figure in all of this, keep. You used to be a semi-reasonable poster, but it's clear that Joe has mind-f0cked... read more...
