That might turn out to be a bigger problem then simply ignoring those posters you don't like...
It would be! I wouldn't suggest censoring them - I just hope they would realise themselves that not everything they have to say interests other people. Bigboy has some interesting posts, but they more or less drown in the flood of stupidities he also entertains with. As for Satanas, I think her main interest is getting attention, so the way to deal with her is to ignore her - she *will* go away and pester some other forum then.

It was a cough that carried him off. It was a coffin they carried him off in.

To call that statement pompous would be a vast understatment.
What makes you think that people are interested in your comments just because you post less?
I didn't say they were, but we are not discussing me here. I don't post enough to be a nuisance to people by the frequency of my posts in itself, even if some people should think my comments are uninteresting or stupid.
Incidentally, the "pompous" statement you quote is actually little more than a tautology anyway - who would be interested in something that wasn't interesting?

But the main problem is that some people find BB's posts at least entertaining. Sometimes he is just annoying but then again some of the things he says make me laugh.
So while some find his posts annoying, others enjoy them. Now who is to say which posts are more interesting? Whose opinion counts the most?
Know what I mean?

Yes I do - I am also just stating an opinion (which others seem to share). In the end, BigBoy and everyone else decide for themselves what they want to post or not. Similarly, I think I (as well as the creator of the thread and the many other members that are annoyed) are allowed to state their view.

Exactly. Couldn't have put it better myself. If there was no one on this board that likes to join in and have some silly banter with me then I wouldn't make the silly/entertaining/annoying posts, would I?
If there was no one at all who was interested then I'm sure I would have disappeared a long time ago.
Fact is, for every one person who dislikes it there is another who does, so who's opinion is more important or valid?
Answer: no one's. We're all equal (OK, maybe not Satanas)

Sure you are
I'm not telling anyone to shut up, do I?
It's just a bit of an awkward situation.
It's either same rights for everyone or censorship.
And even tho it may be true that some people stopped posting here because of BB (which I find rather pathetic), you shouldn't forget what made people leave the other forum: Censorship.
People are never happy. Even if BB would stop posting now and everybody should be happy, you will find that tomorrow at the latest they will have found something else to irk them.
That's people

Couldn't agree more with you Tom.. I have more laugh reading BB sex life than reading commentary about a possible tracklist of a next possible single .. Of course, we are in a PSB forum but does it mean that people here don't have a life ?
C'mon Big Boy I'm behind you !!!

Since when is there a limit on how many answers can be given to a question? No matter how much bigboy butts in, you can still say what you like on that thread as well
Looking for love and getting nothing that's worth regretting.

True some of his posts are worth reading but the vast majority are both pointless and un funny.
You really need to get out more.
Glad to see you did maths at school, Benn.
And everyone has the same sense of humour do they?
I do get slightly sick of the fascistic plebs on this board who seem to think that we must all follow, one religion, say the PSB are the best act in the world ever, find all the same things funny etc etc etc....
I think you're the one who needs to get out more. And not just from that dank changing room.
