He has mispelt Than in his sig on purpose as he got such a hard on last time when people told him he was making mistakes. He is predictable now, every couple of weeks he will turn up.

I get the impression he's fed up with us enough as it is...

I think I'm just a little concerned that we're getting a reputation as a cliquey, whinging corner of b3ta that seems to be on 24-hour Bert Alert. I know it's natural for the various boards to look down on one another, and so we get derided as such, but I just think we're better than that.
Obviously, I don't disagree with the argument that Bert really has been an insufferable cunt. All things considered, you probably did the right thing.

but also have no desire to see B3ta play host to Bert's kind. OT is already reputed to be cliquey because anyone new who turns up invariably cops a fuckload of abuse, and only a few people stick around long enough to realise this isn't unique to newbies

And I agree, the place is better when we don't have to constantly contend with Bert's latest incarnation.

Anyway, as Vipros said myself and Bobby are examples of people who barged in and dealt with the brickbats

I wouldn't normally get involved but some of the things Bert shared were inexcusable. Plus he came back to troll not to participate. I agree with your point about being viewed as cliquey - all boards have an element of that but that doesn't mean any of us should encourage it.

this is clique city. Not a bad thing just makes it tougher for newbies. Bert is a special case imo and just exacerbates the situation.

Just as cliquey, but perseverance and not being a complete mentalist will see you through.

Just to clarify: I'm as glad as the rest of you to be shot of Bert. I don't think his trolling has been at all amusing of late, and his swipes at people have just been far too personal, even for a website that pitches its humour at the level it does.
I just want to make sure we don't develop into the 'special child' of all the boards who goes running in tears to Cr3 when somebody comes back to bully us again. We can stand up for ourselves. Though obviously, Bert is a particularly special class of cunt. Anyone who's going to try this hard to troll one board so persistently must have a hell of a problem.

Bert is a special case, but there aren't really many things that ever require mod intervention

Before I ever signed up, I think, although I was lurking at the time. Also, hello you. How did your Very Important Meeting go? (well, I assume it was important..)

My supervisor and I were rather worried that, during our talks, there'd be the audible sound of a barrel being scraped. Fortunately we soon realised that nobody else had made much progress in the last few months either, which was a relief. So, quite a tiring day (they always are) but not nearly as painful as I thought it was going to be.
To celebrate this fact I am off to buy a(nother) guitar.
