He's only 14. At least it seems he can spell, unlike many of his age. I post on a tabletop warfare hobby forums and the people under the age of 16 there seriously seem mentally handicapped/educated in America...

Actually, after reviewing a few of his threads, he is really not great at spelling. Check the spelling on your gosh darned posts, or we will treat you like a fool. Proper spelling is common decency on all good internet forums.

i'm sure that my staunch devotion to lower-case is just as irritating to some as poor spelling.

anyway, count me down for a "settle the f down" vote.

it's all of our least favorite threads coming back to life, and i think that the lack of "use the search button, ******bag" responses must be due to his fourteenness.

Its not an anti-IRO crusade....just saying. Pista has to his credit a bag thead, a light thread, a brake thread, a helmet thread, a pedal thread, and a thread asking for help doing something that can't be properly explained through the internet(riding backwards)...in three days. It's like the ghosts of everyone's least favorite threads...

dude...so he has typical questions. for a minute i thought he was smarter than an average 14 year old, so therefore he must be fake and a troll. then i thought, even if he can't spell, he listens to leo kottke, quotes plato, and rides a fixie. you know, i ****in' like the guy.

Do you know why they're everyone's least favorite threads? Because they get started a lot. You know why? BECAUSE THEY'RE COMMON ISSUES.

and someone new to the site might not realize how common they are or that there's a search function (i've learned to love that).

sticky/sub-forum, whatever...but you can add my vote creating something so common issues can be addressed, if only to stop hearing *****ing every time they come up.

His posts have been anything but inflammatory.
And repeatedly calling him out as a troll is far more incendiary than simple bag and brake threads.
