    Annoying pair of newbies

    This guy is, if you are all wandering, friends with the guy
    who's been PMing us all and telling us to go and read his posts. I thought you'd get a kick out of his reply.

    http://cboard.cprogramming.com/showthread.php?t=54610

    SARCASM!!! (though I could be wrong)

    Fletchpac and his friend Siggy have been causing some distress (aka really ........ing people off), with harassment over IM and PMs. They have repeatedly refused to follow the forum guidelines like specific titles, and I can quote each of them as saying, "If people don't want to help they don't have to". Govtcheez is a witness to that, and a few other things.

    I would like to use this thread, if it's OK with the mods, as a petition to get these guys banned. I have since blocked their names from every form of communication with me as I can think of, and as you can see, I still don't have the basic human right to browse the C++ board without their rudeness and lack of common sense. If we let these guys go on, the terrorists win!

    But seriously, I try to help the newbies a lot becuase in many ways I am still a newbie myself. And I know I'm not everybody's block of code (or piece of cake, whichever phrase you prefer), but these guys have really gone too far.

    Well Siggy did PM me at the beginning but I simply explained that I wouldn't help them over PM and then I ignored the subsquent one and they got the point.

    IMO this would be something that would be better suited over PM with Kermi or webmaster. Only thing this thread will serve to do is as a I am sillyI am sillyI am sillyI am sillyI am silly session.

    I dunno about the other guy, but siggy has been acting like an annoying little biotch on AIM...therefore he is blocked. I agree with sean.

    Heh I forgot the word I used was filtered

    Edit: And people like them are the reason I removed my AIM username from my cboard profile.
