But the board says I can't because he's a moderator. Any way you can tweak this, Amy?
Please?

If you ignore him, his threads still show up when you click New Posts, so it doesn't help much. I click "new posts," read everything I want to read (generally skipping Justin), then click "mark forums read" and POOF - the Justin posts go away unless he posts new threads or someone posts in one of his threads.

Oh, I know all about mark posts read. I just don't want to wade through all that junk.

Alas, ignoring him won't prevent them from showing up in the new posts lists anyway.

I like Justin. Am I the only one? |

No. I like him too. Furthermore, he's posting very few threads in any given day and I delete duplicates.

You are the only one (well, besides Amy, but we knew Amy likes him - she does keep bringing him back, after all). Amy gets rid of him for a while and the board breathes a sigh of relief that all those useless posts are gone, then he comes back with the next tweak or upgrade. The pool boy? Should be quiet and look pretty.
Mainly he bugs me because I prefer to get my news and current events on here from you guys. Its part of EAs charm, and its more interesting to hear what you all have to say or what you all find interesting out of thousands of possible stories than some pool boy bot. |

He's not pulling general news anymore. He pulls information from google on two topics. Epinions and EA Games. He's set to pull one item on each topic every 12 hours. That's not unreasonable.

It's not that big a deal to read what you want and mark those threads as read, at least I don't think so. Every once in a while I'm actually interested in what he pulled anyway, so he doesn't bother me enough to say he should be banned. Some of the stuff y'all post, well now, that's a different story...
