I keep reading this but I have never witnessed it myself. Can you give an example of [MENTION=92]The Barbarian[/MENTION] being dishonest?
There's a reason for that. He isn't, far from it. Stripe is simply parroting a rumour spread by the biggest troll on the forum is all. Remember when doser used to obsess over Barb to the point of distraction, spamming up thread after thread? What his beef with the guy was who knows but it was ridiculous. He was okay with me until I asked him if he could reign it in a bit and just ignore the guy and then suddenly, I started getting the same and then anyone else who was fed up with his drive by trolling spam of 100 posts a day.
Then, "okdoser" got a real bee in his bonnet over TH and did the same, flaming out and trolling all over the place so consider the source Wiz. He was even warned by Knight to knock it off with TH on pain of a long term to permanent ban over his constant spamming and trolling. That was even before the new ruling that prevents doser from stalking posters and hurling lame insults about.
Barb was never going to be popular on here in the main. He's not MAD, he's not far right and he's not a young earth creationist. Along with Alate One, he ruffles the likes of Stripe's feathers by schooling him in actual science which ain't gonna go down well. Barb infuriates people, no doubt of that but that's because he's unflappable and doesn't flame out, which is what some people obviously wish he would do. Ever seen Barb get an infraction for stalking other posters?
So, failing that, the trolls and those with their panties in a twist resort to inventing rumours and the gullible just lap it up.
