how hard is it to just ignore tudd and not post in the threads he makes? that is all anyone has to do and he'll stop posting because it's obvious at this point that he loves the attention.

I don't necessarily disagree with you, he'd just leave if people would ignore him and I certainly get tired of hearing about him constantly. That's not going to happen though and it shouldn't [I]have[/I] to happen. We could just let people post whatever they want and you could use the same exact argument against it. Flaming? Just ignore it. Shock images? Just ignore it. Gimmick accounts? Ignore it. Harassment? Ignore it.
its that time of the month again i see
TUDD FUDDEEEERRRSS
[QUOTE=Alice3173;52694717]Personally if I see a thread posted by Tudd I just ignore it because even before reading the thread title I can immediately tell you what it's about. And he's so consistent with it that there's only been a handful of times I haven't guessed right. His threads are worth nobody's time, just like most of his posts.[/QUOTE]
hahah true, when i saw the "UK Tube suspect identified" thread and saw it was posted by tudd i knew it would have to be a muslim or immigrant suspect, no way he'd post that if it turned out to be a white radical
his agenda has become so obvious you can guess what the tone of the thread is before even entering, it's funny

The difference is Tudd is just posting content people don't like, not things that are harmful/bad to look at. You can place him on your ignore list and he's gone. He's not breaking any rules, the servers aren't running out of space because he posts 10 more news threads than anyone else.
[QUOTE=RoboChimp;52696508]Is there a hack to change his name too?[/QUOTE]
That's easy to do with a script. Although I have no idea to do one myself, I only remember editing someone else script for a similar purpose in the past.
I know everyone else noticed first, but just have to get this out of my system; Tudd's name looks like Turd Fuckers, was it supposed to?
[QUOTE=NachoPiggy;52696558]That's easy to do with a script. Although I have no idea to do one myself, I only remember editing someone else script for a similar purpose in the past.[/QUOTE]I wish someone would show me how.
stop fucking feeding him you idiots.
ignore his dumb ass and be on with your day

No problem at all if the people who actually believe and perpetuate the lies and crooked opinion pieces he posts do the same as well.
My problem is not the nonsensical bullshit he spreads, it's the people believing it.
Just look at the first posts in this thread:

Yeah i don't get it everyone here seems to hate Tudd but despite that everyone still wastes their time with him and always brings him up every month or so in this thread or elsewhere
stop giving the dude attention if he annoys you so much, it's obvious he strives off attention as well since he normally makes some post mentioning himself if it goes too long without any tudd related drama
I come for some forums discussions and first two things I see are Tudd and "imagine calling climate change a political issue" :thinking:

It is the bi-weekly "complain about Tudd" phase of this thread again.
i love complaining about people complaining about tudd
more please

People didn't even want to bring the Tudd discussion here, it's just that addressing this shit in his own threads is bannable, for some reason, and this is where we keep being directed to. If a thread is made for a reason, then we should be able to address that reason. I will never understand why we keep allowing people with shit attitudes (because as it has been said a hundred times over, this is not about Tudd's opinions, but about how dishonest and manipulative he is with them), and instead ban the people who criticize said shit attitudes

Pushing a narrative isn't bannable though, otherwise we might as well nuke the majority of Sensational Headlines and Polidicks at this point. Plus, what he is doing isn't actually breaking any rules, posting low-to-zero effort posts are, and I haven't seen any proof that he is literally phoning it in on most of his posts.
Just ignore him and use [URL="https://userstyles.org/styles/59968/facepunch-remove-ignored-posts"]this[/URL] found in our precious wayt, and your personal problems will be 90% solved. By 90% you can still see his posts when he's being quoted, and his thread titles (OP is gone though).

of these 31 topics active in the last hour, 12 are from tudd, which is a bit over a third.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Tudd;52632416]I am legitimately far less emotionally invested than the people I typically argue with. Some people need to step back, and realize where they are posting, and that at the end of the day it is an online forum.[/QUOTE]
can we halt the arguing and just appreciate this small piece of ironic entertainment right here
[QUOTE=The golden;52696582]Because he basically owns his own subsection which is also one of the primary news sections on the forums. It's not like he's some obscure WAYT poster.
Honestly, it's not even about Tudd. His views, thoughts, opinions, etc are irrelevant here - it could be anyone. The issue is his cherry-picking of articles and tendency to get involved in debates which he poorly handles. He's very evasive and will constantly try to sidetrack the argument and if you try and call him out you get banned (not specifically for a shout-out but questioning his posting). Yeah yeah I know you will probably reply with "Who cares it's Facepunch" but we should honestly be promoting at least somewhat of a higher post quality than that.
It's pretty obvious he enjoys some sort of preferential treatment because of his views but that shouldn't be the case. His views should be allowed but he should be held to the same quality standards as the rest of us - and we all know we would have been banned for doing the things he does. People with opposing viewpoints have existed on FP for years and we can handle it just fine as long as we all have to play by the same rules. I think that's pretty fair, no? Again this isn't even about Tudd - I have taken issue with posters that share my viewpoints but still made posts I felt were poor. I feel everyone should be held accountable to the same standards even if it's someone I agree with.[/QUOTE]I think they give him special treatment because he's a 'special' sort of guy. But really, they should take him off his perch:

I guess you missed the part I said has been repeated a hundred times over. 101 didn't do it, so here's 102: This isn't so much about his narrative as it is about how dishonestly he pushes it. His attitude is manipulative and never furthers any sort of constructive discussion. It creates a hostile debate environment and he's openly admitted that's why he does it.
We're not going to stop Tudd discussion. But can we at least keep it forum related, and not just shitpost about Tudd like this is WAYT
I'm surprised that he still visits the website when there is visible distaste for the guy. If I was a low quality poster and had a bunch of people constantly complaining about me either in posts, here, or on my profile; I'd just lose all motivation to even be apart of the community.

He enjoys the endless attention you people keep giving him.

Could be just to spite everyone, nobody likes trolls but still there are trolls everywhere exactly because of that; nobody likes them and the hatred fuels their fire.

I personally ignore the dude, but if you're getting to the point where you're telling a lot of the forum to ignore someone, there might be a bit of a problem worth addressing instead of insisting everyone else is the problem for responding to their posts y'know
[QUOTE=Jarokwa;52696814]sometimes i wonder what people would bitch about if Tudd didn't exist[/QUOTE]
Politics, video games, other assorted topics?
what a dumb thing to say tbh
the problem is that he's spamming sensational headlines with "news" stories that fit his own personal narrative that he believes is happening in america. and because it's actually considered "news" he isn't spamming, and because he isn't directly saying "i despise blacks, MAGA" he isn't trolling or getting banned for neonazism. he's treading a fine line.
[QUOTE=DinoJesus;52696399]On one hand I understand the concern with how Tudd frames his articles, but on the other hand this site is so fucking liberal that I think it needs more opposing viewpoints. If you can't handle an anti climate change article without running to the mods that means you just can't handle any criticism of your politics.[/QUOTE]
What I don't understand is it isn't even Anti-climate change.

So by the quotation marks around news, are you suggesting what I post is fake news?
Because they certainly happened. Only the academic enrollment thread and climate change ones are speculative, but speculative threads are not new at all on Facepunch. Just to require correct sourcing and not be opinion pieces.
[QUOTE=Jarokwa;52696814]sometimes i wonder what people would bitch about if Tudd didn't exist[/QUOTE]
Whatever zeitgeist would keep things somewhat suspenseful on here.
It is kind of weird coming on the forum discussion and seeing tooth and nail debate/appeals to remove me. Especially when it is over news articles that fall well within the guidelines.
It's not like I came on here when llamaguy was posting his articles and campaigning to remove him.
2 pages of tudd later perhaps it's time to end the monthly tudd discussion???
Notice how mods don't chime in so clearly this is going no where and y'all are just making yourselves upset. So here's a fantastic idea: put tudd on your ignore list and don't post in his threads. If he's so hated he'll get sick of posting empty threads and stop.
Though I agree he did kind of spam SH recently. Perhaps a thread creation limit is in order.
[editline]19th September 2017[/editline]
He sure as hell isn't the first to spam SH
At this point the mods aren't going to do anything to Tudd even if he does break any rules
