Uh... I don't know, I think a psychollogically destroyed Jedikev could do the trick. Whenever he's being rude we can say something like:

"Hey, Jedikev? You know that teddy bear of yours, Mr Bobo? He secretly told me he dosen't love you!"

"NOOOOOO! It's a lie! A lie!! Noooo!! The evil dark cloud is coming back to my head!! Bringing pain and sadness!! Must... do... what the doctor said... Breath slowly... Think of my happy place... Breath slowly... Think of my happy place..."

Well, I think the best thing about Jedikev is that you can switch him off using Moth3r's Forum Enhancement filter

Never thought I'd have to use that again since the days of DamnyouallB, but the Jedikevs posts have been so conspicuously similar to DB's - albeit like a dumbed down DB - that it was worth adding him to the filter.

However, since the Kevin Smith/Jedikev sucks threads he did seem to calm down a bit, in the Preservations and General threads at least, so was suprised to see him temporarily banned in what I thought was his 'cooled down' period.

Personally I find most of his posts disruptive, and I can't say I've noticed any 'valued contributions' - where've those been hiding? To me his main contributions so far have been maintaining a level of behaviour that makes everyone else on the forum look fantastic by comparison. Secondly, he seems to fulfill the role of forum whipping boy, acting as an outlet for people to vent their spleen at, possibly attracting negativity away from the rest forum.

If and when he does return, perhaps he should be given a ranking for him to aspire beyond, such as Whiny Youngling, or Jar Jar Binks, until such times he proves himself capable of more maturity and civility.

And if and when he returns, I predict he'll go the same way as his forerunner DB.

I have no problem with Jedikev. After a while you know a person and know how to take any inflammatory remarks (it was the same with Jimbo, who's still abused as punching-ball for no apparent reason). What annoys me more are people who react to any flame from a person who is widely known for posting senseless flames from time to time. That makes it so incredibly easy to derail any topic into a mindless flamewar. Just ignore the crap and pick up the gold.

So, its ok to flame so long as you've done it many time before?

Wow...I'd totally forgotten about that. I guess I thought it would never be necessary after DB was banished.

He's younger than jimbo. Less set in his ways. We can try and break him before it goes beyond repair.

As one who personally complained to Zion about his behavior, I think we'd be better off with him gone. Like the TFN mod said, he probably will not change in his ways, continuing to use unnecessary language in even more unnecessary situations. However, I remember what I was like when I was posting on message boards around 13 years of age, and although my posts weren't nearly as troll-like as his, they were pretty immature. That and I've seen some kind-of okay posts from him. I say give him another chance, but don't let it be a long chance if we start to see the same behavior soon after.

I used to be very active on this forum. I’m not really anymore. Sometimes, people still want to get in touch with me about something, and that is great! If that describes you, please email me at [my username]ATgmailDOTcom.

Hi everybody. You’re all awesome. Keep up the good work.

I say we still give him the chance to change. We did with J****. It's only fair we do the same with him.

That was pretty deep Sean Wookie.

Jay, how much longer on Kev's ban?

How is this suddenly allowed to drop down from the top? I thought it was stickied to the top. Does this mean that Jedikev is once again gaining power?

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

If that was the case, you'd think Kev would've made his mark on the boards by now.
