How many people here are getting fed up with this 'Succatash' character? His posts are uniformly offensive and full of tasteless humor. I think he gives all browncoats a bad name.

Isn't it about time someone said "Enough is enough"?

Succatash isn't an evil force to be battled. He is a person with views, as are you.

I much prefer Tash's flights of whimsy over other people's insistence at injecting political and/or religious debate on this board.

I have had an exchange with 'Tash in the past and wish him no ill will. The exchange was intelligent and had absolutely no hostility in it. So, I have no idea where you are coming from here.

Quite frankly I find the "spirit" of this thread in very poor taste. If you don't like the guy fine, but to create a thread. That's just spiteful.

Every Fandom needs at least one kooky, slightly over-the-top, rabid fanster...

For us, Tash is certainly that - and I ask you to please leave him be.

No one makes anyone read anothers posts, if ya don't like his stuff, don't read it.

I think we should all think of fun ways in which we can torture Tash. I myself am going to go by his house and clean his rain gutters when he's not there. Boy! That'll sure confuse him.

At the risk of getting on Tash other wrong side I will only say that my exchanges with him and the comments by him that I have read have been at times quite uhmm... unsettling. I am simply relieved to see that I am not the only one.
He does make me laugh out loud at times so he does have that redeeming trait.

Admitedly... Succatash is a unique, sometimes unsettling, sometimes morbid & creepifying individual. But he's also funny on occasion, and his posts are (I think) in no way intended to be malicious.

He simply has a different point of view than most people, and enjoys sharing it.

I for one am always curious as to what he's going to come up with next. Even if it does end up giving me a major case of the wiggins.

As has been said previously... If you don't want to hear or see what he has to offer, simply don't read or look at it.

Tash is kind of like the River of this board. Sometimes playful, sometimes childish, sometimes subtle (I loved the thread to take turns writing the petition against take turns writing), sometimes brilliant, and sometimes it's like he's coming at someone with a butcher's knife.

He'll either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair, but he definitely belongs here.

Which is more offensive:

1) Someone who posts strange, potentially offensive, irreverent material, whose words may be ignored at will? OR
2) Someone who creates an entire thread for the purpose of launching a personal attack another poster?

If there's anything browncoats have to be ashamed of in this, it's that one of our own chose a public forum in which to attack another of us.

I support Tash's right to be freaky! He always give me a laugh (bagpipe protest! brilliant!) I've been a regular poster on several boards since 6th grade, and there has always been someone crazy to livent things up. He's not hurting you; why would you want to hurt him?

Astriana:

Greetings, gentleperson.

You're right. It's wrong to attempt to ostracize another, simply because they're attacking you. The correct course of action is to determine whether the offense warrants response (almost always not) and then either take the counteroffensive or ignore, based on that analysis.

Still, I'd bet that Thuccotash is giggling with glee over seeing himself as the target of debate and ridicule. It is attention, after all.

So, as long as he's having fun with it -- and judging from the picture he posted above, I'd say he's looooving it -- and nobody else here appears to be taking SergeantX's request to hang 'Tash in electronic effigy seriously, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Maybe SergeantX just ran out of snappy comebacks? As for 'Tash, remember, Tourette's Syndrome is a terrible disease; show him a little sympathy...

Respectfully,

zoid

The worst that can be said of 'Tash is this is what happens when you have a person with too much time and too much bandwidth on their hands.

And 'Tash, if you ever, and I mean ever, post a pic of you in your undershorts again, BANG! ZOOM!

I don't think it was intended as a gag. It was a beleaguered plea for help.

But it's certainly had the opposite effect. It's turned into a 'Tash love-in. Count me in. Madness is a gift from the gods...

Yes!
Damn 'tash. Damn him to heeeeeelllll!
How dare he post here with whimsical banter and selfish opinions.
Why can't he post about Firefly being in a comic strip, or firefly being made into a movie?
Did you know there is a frozen Han Solo in a scene with Kaylee? 'Tash, please speak to us of relavent topics like Ron Glass not being in the new movie based upon the television series Firefly.
How dare he make a reason for people to read FFF.net and allow others to post their views.

Clearly you people don't see what's going on here. He's infected you with his vile ethos. He lures you in with his false prophecies and his photoshop witchery. Turn back now, the road to 'tashdom is the path of doom!

He's a Tash-ho

Really, I admire...well no, watch aghast actually, as he fearlessly flings about his ignorance and exudes a kind of anti-charm. I'm reminded of the Stooges themselves...except without the funny parts. He brings a hole knew meening to reason and genius...kind of an opposite meaning, I guess.

There is one really good thing about him, though:

He's not my neighbor.

Okay. . .I'm the official "late poster" to this thread.. .my apologies.

Something about this thread tells me it might have been a gag and not a genuine attack against Tash. . .but I'm going to defend him anyhow.

Since I've been on the board, which hasn't been long, I think I'm the only other person in which a thread was created that could be seen as a personal attack against me. . .and it was created by Tash.

Interestingly enough. . .after letting everyone else make their replies and say what they had to say, I posted a very carefully worded, deeply thought-out reply, and Tash's response was considerate, kind and friendly.

Here's a thought. . .let the guy say what he wants to say when he wants to say it. It's his right. If what he says BOTHERS you. . .maybe some self-examination is in order.

And I'm all for seeing the Naked Chocolate Disco Dance.

But I must thank you... I now see the dreaded ramifications of deleting a post in your presence. You are pure evil.

Just so you know, I SAVED my deleted post and can re-post it AT ANY TIME! That's right! Yes I can... oh, I think you want me to, don't you?

I never did hear a denial from either one of you.

Wait...if you are both you, then would you or both of you have to deny this? Would just one denial be enough if there is just one of you or would it require both of you denying that it's two of you.

All I want to know is who 'Tash came out as on the Saint Jayne Personality Test. See, I always thought of him as the Simon type. And since I'm 89% Jayne, that probably explains my animosity (as well as my repeated attempts to rat him out to the Feds).

Tash, though weird, zany, insane, potentionaly dangerous, and other assorteed things, is our Tash. He brings...variety to the group. He may pull a prank which may offend, but we put it behind, and continue on. We love out Tash, however immature he can get. If offended, he'll find out, and apologize.

In summery: Tash can be immature, but he is good.

Only I'm married! I have to add that because my husband might read this post and he'll think I am flirting with you and I am sooo not flirting with you. I couldn't look my fellow browncoats in the eye if I were. Not that I can look them in the eye but you get my meaning.
