It's somewhat annoying to go into any thread he makes/posts and then to have however many posts ripping into him about drugs/jail/army...completely ignoring topic/remark

Yeah he's done/posted stupid crap, but why do I have to be constantly reminded about it everywhere he goes?

Just a thought.

One way to avoid that is to not open any ZJ threads.

Sure, if that's what it takes. I suppose. I've seen what the OP is talking about and it's beyond joking. Everyone posts useless crap not related to the OP, especially in OT, but it shouldn't get so personal and about something someone has had a serious struggle with.

so ban people who have issues with drug adict, who has said they would rather get drugs then pay for medical care for his wife, claims to be joining the military, who claims to make tons of money off his "computer businesss", etc etc.

either ZJ is a scumbag or a liar (i think both actually). so you guys want to ban people wo say stuff about him?

yeah that sounds like a good idea.

So you feel vindicated being a Vigilante Stalker. What if he's cleaning himself up? You just gonna keep at it forever?

The problem with doing this is then we couldn't do it anymore for other people such as Goose and his whistle and then what would be the point of OT if it gets all serious?

You are certainly welcome to start this thread, but please be aware that this conversation does nothing but encourage his schtick.

Since we don't need to tighten down on the trolling any more than we already have, and we will continue to have these guys who push the line, my advice is to take the suggestion above to heart - don't click on ZJ threads. It works for me.

heh. wrong.

i have said before i really hope he cleans himself up. he has a daughter and living how he does is no life for her.

but i find it amazing that some would want ban those that will say what what they think of him or point out his bullshit. I don't think thats a road ATOT really wants to go.

The OP and what I read had nothing to do with calling out BS. ZJ started a thread on something and the next dozen+ Posts were nothing but BS themselves and having absolutely nothing to do with the topic.

Why not? Personal attacks violate the forum rules. I've been banned for it before.

zane johnson has said and done stupid stuff in the past, but unless I'm missing something he seems alright now. If he says stupid stuff now, he deserves to be called out on it. Bringing up stupid stuff he has said or done in the past is unnecessary.

They'll be dealt with on a case by case basis.
