Perhaps if he were to post something of his own writing in addition to the daily cut and paste reel it might not be so bad.

At this point, he is just spamming.

At this point, he is just spamming.when he does, everyone jumps on him because of his spelling. IMO, the right wants him silenced.

Maybe we need another new rule. No cut and pastes in the OP. They actually made that ridiculous rule on another forum I used to post at.

They can jump on him all they like - it is a forum with the exchange of his ideas. This forum is the marketplace and platform. Not all ideas are welcome. Some are.

Rejection of a crappy idea doesn't mean the mod squad is trying to silence him. But he does flood the board drowning out other topics of note.

Hardly. The ones we have work quite well.

I support his original posts all the time.

I even fix his spelling issues in thread titles.

What difference does it make? Why do you refuse to refute these talking points? Do your posts have no point at all and are just talk? Is all you want from Cigar a bundle of toxic weeds and gut-rotting moonshine?

Frankly don't see the problem with pasting an article and photo as a discussion starter....

Isn't discussion what it's all about? Or is this all-opinion-shall-be-original forum?

It becomes a problem when it is from a talking point list.

It is clear that is what he is doing.

Not a formal email list of talking points. If you find it let me know. I would be against that as well.

I am very specific with this. I believe that Cigar is on someone's payroll and gets an email every morning with talking points. He doesn't read them. He cuts and pastes them here. Or he could be cheap and just does it for free.

I don't think that is acceptable. If most of the members are OK with it, that is fine.

Almost every OP Cigar posts is full of myths, holes and lies.

I think you might be right. It's the same subject everyday, designed to race bait.
