I'm kinda new here, and I know who MisterKenobi is from my days at RS, but why does everyone around here dislike him so badly? Just curious... don't think for a second that I intend to stand up for the guy...
Besides KitKatMan/MisterKenobi's over-inflated ego he put out for everyone to deal with from day 1, and his generally condescending and arrogant nature, I can certainly give plenty of reasons he is disliked simply for being himself. How one survives happily like that always manages to baffle me but he's not the only guy in Star Wars who talks down to everyone and claims that life's just a bowl of cherries for himself... I'm sure his friends just adore being around that kind of personality though.
But to help clear up why people don't like him here, it's generally the same reason people don't like him at Scum actually.
Just a quick look at posts I can quote, and I'm sure everyone will be quite aware of WHY this is the type of person who lasts about 2 seconds at sites that are properly run... As a matter of fact, I think it might have been less than 2 minutes here when he signed up with a nic to try and attack one of our staff members. We all had a great laugh at that as I recall.
Anyway, enjoy the quotes I just pulled at random for him... Fun guy huh?
MisterKenobi's Greatest Hits:
Yeah IG-88 is an icon - an icon for what a few SW nerds with no lives can turn a prop into.
Charming quote huh? Really nice way to talk to other forum members by trolling them with insults.
This Bib looks like he has Downs Syndrome or something.
Where do you even start with a quote like that? Not only is it insulting to people but it's something you teach children to know better than to joke about publicly... I'm sure anyone with a special needs person in their lives really appreciates that kind of comment, I know my brother would have probably snapped his neck if he heard him say that in person considering my neice has Downs.
A-p-o-l-o-g-y.
Could someone be more condescending than to spell out words as a reply to someone mispelling something?
People who hate Jar Jar = entitled to their own (wrong) opinions.
People who hate TPM because of Jar Jar = idiots.
Again, at what point is any forum accepting blatant random insults and mudslinging as proper behavior? Hell's bells, even kindergarten classes have more tact.
Boo hoo.
Pretty much along the lines of the spelling post... Someone's mommy didn't teach them that if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all... I guess when you're behind a PC screen you're as arrogant as you want to be though. Kind of like how people behave in cars with their "rage".
Lamest thing ever in the history of the Earth = counting down posts.
Not quite... Commenting on people counting down posts is probably #1. Just some clarification.
Please, don't EVER compare this trash to a decent show like Chapelle Show again. Please. Feel free though to show why this show sucks in contrast.
Very nice... Tell an entire thread of people voicing their opinions that they basically can't because "I say so", but then alert them to what they CAN do... at least by his guidelines. I thought GNT was god over there, not MisterKenobi?
You don't have to disect my posts, Bobby.
In this post he's replying to someone trying to give him a chance to have a civil, intelligent debate stating his opinion, and MisterKenobi replies by first telling the person not to disect his posts (even though that's actually proper debate online), and also by mispronouncing the guy's name by calling him "Bobby". For some reason I've noticed a common ******bag tactic of people who are angry and tied up in a budding online fight like to add a "Y" to someone's name. It somehow implies some emphasis of their either dislike, or strong attraction towards their opponent. A possible personal term of affection is my thoughts on the matter.
And think about it... no one would be able to join to spam us, or scalp, or troll. Life would be so much better!
Seems a bit hypocritical doesn't it? Considering how often he's been quoted with trolling, baiting, condescending, and flaming posts just now, how does he have a right to cry foul against people who are doing the same thing? He's their king afterall.
The mods don't need your help. If they did, I think they would ask you for it. But you do this in every single thread that is remotely copied.
And I'm all for showing someone an existing thread, but seriously do it in PM, or at least don't act so special when you show them. There are four buttons at the bottom of every post. One of them is the report button. Try it out.
And Skyhouker, I'm surprised to hear post-padding babble from a guy who has like 10 threads in the classifieds that you bump 2-3 times a day sometimes.
And low and behold one more quote and the guy's telling people not to mod anyone, yet in the same goddam thread he's telling people how to post and behave... I mean, holy hell does he re-read this stuff or just hit reply all willynilly without ever thinking about what he just said?
Anyway, I think the point's made why people dislike him... It's just so damned easy to do so.
