I guess we have different tastes in people. I will say I liked the fact that he had guts enough to state his opinions on Star Wars when he knew most would disagree. I just think he should have been more civil and less rude in doing so.

he was rude and offensive long before that thread was made. That's why the thread was made

except, that was not first time he offended people and gay bashed. And the fact is the he didn't learn his lesson the 1st time he was banned and I doubt that if this was the first time he was banned, that he would have learned his lesson this time either.

well I'm sorry if you feel that way. I don't see how we are all as guilty as he is . To me if someone says somthing that pisses me off, I have the right to say so. And I have the right to tell him why I think he is wrong. Maybe some of the times we were rude to him, but its hard to care about wheither or not you offend him if he has already offended you. Most of the time we didn't start the arguments, he did. No one forced him to gay bash , no one forced him to be rude and arrogant. Most of the people on this forum want to have polite, respectful discourse even on subjects when we disagree. Jimbo didn't want that and/or wasn't mature enough to do that. That is why a lot of people disliked him and wanted him gone. And this is not about his views on Star Wars. If it were, we would be asking Jay to ban anyone that liked the SE OT and loved the PT. I think I speak for everyone here when I say, we don't want that, and Jay would never do that. It's not his views that were the problem it is how he expressed his views.
We only offended, were rude, and insulted him after he did the same to us. I think it was self defense.

And I agree with Shimraa. Half the reason Jimbo said stupid crap was just to get a reaction.


And why the hell should we have to put up with that crap? IMO we don't need that kind of nonsense here. Jay and everyone else tried to tell him to stop, but he wouldn't listen so Jay was forced to get rid of him.



I agree that his devils advocate stance will be missed. And maybe this forum will be a little more boring without him. But if you ask me, we are better off without such an arrogant, ignorant, rude, inmature, bigoted little prick. Sorry, its just how I feel.
