O.K.
This whole PIRATENEWS thing is getting way out of hand on too many levels so heres an idea. It's been mentioned before several times but lets actually see if we can at least TRY to do it;
LETS IGNORE HIM.
If he starts a thread - Ignore it, dont reply however tempting it may be, just ignore it.
If he posts on your thread - Ignore it, dont reply, just ignore it.
Give him 100% blankage if only to see what happens.
What do you say?

I agree. That's what I've tried to do in the past. Just don't give a damn.
Remember this if you need inspiration:

Assuming that the moderator(s) can't intervene, ignoring someone is quite effective if it's done 100%.

Yes, but it will only work if everyone actually does it...
Although I still like my idea of enlisting Team Random. I don't think that would be as effective, though. Maybe it would, since he does have his supporters on this site. For some strange reason.

I dont know if people are supporting PN or just the "free speech" angle, thats why I'm saying lets not try to shut him down or shut him up, just dont respond.
The gun wont go off if theres no ammo in it.

Well, I'm game. Count me in then.
The inet being what it is, I figure if I ever need a dose of PN I can always go to his website.

I'm not sure that approach will be very effective in this case. PN seems to have very little interest in interacting. I think its safe to say most of us have been ignoring him already. I'd hoped a reasonably polite request might appeal to a hypothetical better nature.
Anyway, ignore him, yeah I'm in.

Okay, I really REALLY tried to reach the dude with my last couple of posts. If he ain't better now (like he'd listen to me, yeah, right), then I'm on board with the ignoring.
Done with it Chrisisall
