Time warping for the sake of time warping

[ProfJohn]

Over in this thread link

scorpious makes 6 posts that have nothing to do with the topic and are all about his ability to time warp other members. So nearly half the posts in the thread are just him being a jack ass.

Shouldn't there be a rule against this stuff?

I know time warps happen and you can't do anything about them, but time warping for the sake of time warping should be against the rules. Should be treated no different than other types of thread hijacking.

Time warping cannot be prevented so you can't blame it on anyone other then for some neffing.

Saying you know it happens but wanting people to stop doing it can't be helped until vb is finished.

After clicking on his profile and selecting 'view posts' link

It seems that half of his posts are about time warping other people.
Examples:

Too easy. Watch me jump your ass

I wrote my response to timewarp your ass. How you like them apples?

"Gosh, you guys just don't learn do you?

TIMEWARP TIMEWARP"

BAMF! ANother TimewarP!!

Ahh sure, I'll jump you too if you want.

Dude, TIMEWARP. Didn't you get the memo?

I TOLD YOU, I'M THE TIMEWARP BOSS!!!

I am not saying I want people to stop it.

I want people to stop the behavior I listed in my last post.

If I time warp you by accident it is one thing, but if I just run around time warping people and making a big deal out of it that is another.

Again, the problem isn't time warping.

It is using time warps to derail a thread like this guy is doing.

Click the link in the OP. He does not even try to add to the topic, he just makes a big deal out of his skill at time warping.

His "Dude, TIMEWARP. Didn't you get the memo?" posts should be treated no different than someone going into a thread and posting "you are a bunch of idiots" or other thread derailing crap.

This isn't neffing, this is being a jackass because he can be one.
