I generally just read not post, but I have to breath a sigh of relief now he's gone. Was he funny? Sometimes, mostly I believe when under the infuence of boozel. Was he mentally ill? Yep.
Without his outlet here though, I have to feel sorry for his family :(
You know now he's gone maybe we could leave him alone, seems a lot of armchair pundits are out to stab him in the back when they never voiced their displeasure at his wacky antics in the first place, those who did fair enough.
I happened to like the guy, but he's gone lets move on and keep the daggers for somebody elses back :evil:
He may have broke the rules over and over again, but at least he wasn't totally malicious like some of the real trolls we've had in the past!

To be fair, I expect not many people felt the need to. There were always plenty of posters pointing out the error of his ways to him as it was. He was clearly (again) going to step on peoples toes once too often, and earn himself the position hes now put himself in.
People showing their relief that a somewhat disruptive (and in my opinion, attention seeking) member has been removed from the boards, is not "armchair punditry" as you put it, and rather disingenuous of you to say the least.

But many people did voice there displeasure at his antics and those that didn't if it really bothered them could've reported his posts/threads, I don't know if they did for certain. I'm not even disagreeing with his ban it's been a long time coming tbh. But to rip into him when he's not here to defend himself to go with the morals of several others on here at one time or another "just ain't right". Like I said if he was genuinely malicious continuing to rip into him after his ban would be fair play, but other than act like a fool he wasn't a nasty person, and if he genuinely has mental problems then the last thing he needs is to have everyone ripping him a new one!

Relief is one thing, but now he's gone for good several people are appearing and saying how much of an idiot he was, that's not really very nice.
.....and I wouldn't exactly say I was being phony in any way to put a simple spin on your swallowed dictionary either ;)

Yeah i agree but having a rant at us from his youtube account isnt good either.
But its true, if people werent happy with him use the 'report post' button.
Thought he was alright on the 'comeback' until the last week or so when he started reverting back to form.

Well of course you have a point about the "mental problems" and I do agree with you there. Not really needed indeed.
However, I would suggest that his recent branding of a large proportion of WOS members as "C***S" demonstrates quite a streak of maliciousness in just about anyone's book.
I cant remember off hand the exact wording of his famous YouTube video, but I do recall it also included some pretty colourful name calling in our general direction and no mistake. And then he was allowed back. The other day, he walked into the Drum and Bass thread, and without a single thought for the people actually participating in the thread, out of the blue announced...
Drum N Bass is chav music
Druggies, Stoners what ever you wanna call em...
TWATS
I was not really very impressed at ALL with that. According to him, Im a Twat and a druggie and now a C**T... and Ive hardly ever exchanged more than 2 words with the guy !! And you are worried about HIS feelings ? Cmon....
Look, you ARE a good bloke DM, and I do see where you are coming from. But I think hes a big boy really, and can handle the fallout of his own actions, however "not nice" that may come across to some. He clearly and articulately says what he thinks of us.. as others are doing here, of him. I doubt it will bother him much.
And ahhh yeah... allow me to spin "disingenuous" back to its original intended "cynical" meaning.. you pusillanimous man you !! ;)
But that is exactly the sort of thing I would post on such a thread, I would mean it as a joke and perhaps he did too ! I also agree with DM_ about crowing about things like these after the event, it is quite pointless and unfair as he can`t even defend himself. You should perhaps not kick him when he is down, he has gone and perhaps will not be back, who will be next ?
Every time I read that the oldest person in the world has died, I have to do a quick check to see it isn't ME..........
I found that quite disturbing, perhaps you should have posted a disclaimer, or perhaps you should be banned, they are far too revealing for my liking......

Sadly though its like the boy who cried wolf. If someone else posted in that thread 'drum n bass - load of crap....' it might be seen as a joke. But because it was rubberkeys it was just taken more seriously.
If anyone else created a thread with a 'semi-naked' picture of a woman with a large chest it would get taken down but no huge warning or that.
But the thing is it was boy who cried wolf, seen it over and over, many times, the same old story, the weekend comes, a few drinks, dodgy threads and weird ones and then 3 days later begging forgiveness.
If he wasnt banned for the latest thread then in a week or two he would do the same. Just a loose cannon.
Everytime he falls out with WOS he posts something on youtube calling us all a bunch of names etc. I like to have a joke like anything but it seemed like rubberkeys was just trying to push it. Shame its come to this but it was only a matter of time sadly

So if I defend him in any way, I am by association guilty of a crime, good job I am not a lawyer, if it is a crime to defend someone.:-?

There is nothing to 'defend'.
He agreed not to indulge in a very specific type of behaviour on the forum, or else he would be banned. He indulged in that behaviour. He was banned. End of story.
(I skipped the bit about him being given multiple chances before).

Meh, the way I see it, it's just like the Times turning down a feature and advising the writer to try the Express instead.
Sounds like you speak from experience:p
Whereas I speak from my butt...........:oops:
It could be...
you!.

Are you sure those photos are bona-fide !!!
Well at least that's one way to tell if they are real or fake.
Is this what the coalition meant by greater transparency?
Judi Dench was going to be one of the models. But there was a copyright problem with Boney M.
