I know that "profiling" is no longer politically correct, but stopping a person crawling out of a back alley window carrying a TV with a cut power cord, is not "profiling" as far as I am concerned.

As a long time member of various boards and an administrator, I'll agree with Dean Roddey -- this is a spammer. Typically, the spammer will post vaguely worded, inappropriate text for a few posts in an effort to end run the forum's "nanny" (preventing image posting and links for new members). After the nanny backs off, the spammer will change the signature, and/or edit all of the older posts in order to inject the message. Some spammers will register and remain dormant for a year or more. Often, the originating IP address is a big clue and the administrator can avoid a lot of grief by blocking certain IP addresses.

Looks like he has started to spam the forum about his hosting company as I mentioned: [Link: remotecentral.com]

"What is the Most Important Feature of Web Hosting according to you, is it the uptime, support or anything else?"

If you click on his profile, you see the reference to this company. So even if he is banned now, his profile will continue to promote that site.

One thing that hurts them is that there seems to be pretty good scientific proof at this point that being a spammer and having any sort of grasp on grammar are sort of mutually exclusive.

Spammer no know grammar.

Mr.Stanley is just trying to pick a fight because he doesn't like me. My obvious and now proven spotting of a typical forum spammer was his way to try and make me out to be "both a little stereotypical, bigotted, and borderline racist".

The reality is that it is Mr.Stanley's bigotry/racism that allowed him to jump to the conclusion that my comment had anything to do with the posters ethnicity/race/religion/sexual orientation/favorite shoe brand etc.

My post...

Welcome, TK! Why do i have a feeling you have an unbelievable bargain to share with us?

What about that says anything about the posters ethnicity/religion/sexual orientation? I asked Mr.Stanley to explain how he came to his conclusion but of course he didn't because he couldn't.

He couldn't tell us that this...

...caused racist bigoted thoughts to pop in his head. It reminds me of the facebook post he made just before unfriending and blocking me where he stated something along the lines of "you know how those lesbians are". Or the remotecentral post where he said something along the lines of "acting black".

I am sure he was just joking in this thread too.

Mac, if that fellows name was John Smith, would you have asked if he had an unbelievable bargain to share with us?

And don't try and twist my words regarding my lesbian comment. I simply stated that I have a lot of very nice lesbian clients, and that there are SOME lesbians that are mean spirited man-haters. You tried to twist that into my saying they all are.

Come to Seattle, I'll show you what I'm talking about.

User name rarely has anything to do with it but John Smith sounds much faker than the OPs user name.

Some white guys in Seattle get butt hurt when Lesbians have an opinion. Just because thats a fact it doesnt make it any less offensive.

If you can ever afford to be in the same place as me, I'm going to split your balls wide open with a right-footed Puma.

I think if we set up a gofundme account, enough people here will chip in to buy either of you a round trip first class ticket to meet up. We can probably get enough for a nice room and a five star meal.

Hell no. At best I'd be willing to pay business class

You mean the same comment I called you out on and was also blocked/banned from your FB page? Mac's assessment of your comments are spot on. Nobody will deny your ability to spin the truth with the best of them.
