YV, I have on several occasions over the past few months privately contacted you about the troll rockandrolllover, and have in-between made requests to have him banned. I know you have been very busy in your personal life and you'd said at least twice you would look into it, and you even banned one of the fake clones set up to mock him, but you've never gotten around to banning the real deal.
And after this latest example of his idiocy now stooping down to shameful homophobic levels, enough is enough. I really didn't want to resort to begging you publicly to get rid of him, but I feel I have no other choice. I really do not want to be looking at trash like this:
I'm not sticking up for RRL by any means, as I really, really don't like him, but is that remark alone - if meant as offensive - enough for a ban?
My gut feeling is you'll need to build a harder case, Richard. I'm all for that if you can actually show that he is as bad today as he was when he first starting appearing.

But you're wrong again:-)
Actually, I am not wrong. You have pissed off a lot of people here, and went as far as to harass QPL representatives even after they gave you straightforward responses that didn't match up with your delusions.
this thread is the best example how low it can get. honestly.
i am not the kind of guy who would recommend any censorship. although i'm german :-)
but PLEASE... it would be a big favour to many of us serious posters to ban trolls like ... well... rocknrolllover...
... remember "john simon"...? the same to me.... and the "yay"-guy...
it's quite nasty to read all those pointless posts of people who obviously want to punk this shit up...
imho. it's a shame that a forum about a band which made such intelligent music is disturbed by people that are just stupid and brainless.
a whole potion of stupidness is quite ok. but... c'mon... RRL doesn't have anything to offer intellectually, has he ? NO he hasn't. no valuable opinion anyway.
where are those trolls with style ? innuendo1990 and theCro ? at least they tried to understand the queen-phenomenon. nasty aswell. but ...hm... ok...
for me... well, i enjoy reading all those posts and threads which add a new dimension to queen's music. i really do. and i thank everyone who makes a contribution!
but nowadays this is getting quite rare. because lots of people get annoyed by some individuals. PLEASE stop the trolls!!! P L E A S E !!!
rocknrolllover makes me miss the Treasure Moment fights. But looking at it this way - I dunno what you'd be banning him/her/it for. You could make an argument that the aggregate of their posts is one big annoying mess that we don't need here, and I'd agree - but under that criteria, I'd be kicked off as well.
I think for a real concerted "holy crap, let's get rid of this person" you'd need something a lot more offensive (and less hilarious) than calling Adam Lambert a gay. I mean you can't really say he isn't one. Just saying.
And aside from rocknrolllover posting homophobe flame-posts now, we've also got a new spam-bot in the Serious Discussion forum, posting advertisements for online casinos.
Is it really too much to ask that such crap is removed?
