I don't think SpPanda is an idiot. If he posted 50+ threads about ROMs that kept being altered or deleted, I'm pretty sure he knew exactly what he was doing. There's a minimum time between posts after all. Would any person of average intelligence sit around for nearly an hour posting the same thing over and over again because "they just don't get it"?
What I do think is that SpPanda is being petty. Why do I say this? Because his
Attitudes Take 2 thread is a reference to not one previous thread, but TWO. If you do a search on "Take 2", what other thread shows up with that name? TommyRude's
DDR Project Take 2! Which, if you don't know the history,
died a certain death just a few weeks later. Then shortly after, SpPanda posts
this thread in which Brad DeMoss and Hsien Lee's names figure prominently.
Maybe I'm wrong about SpPanda's reasons, but this just looks like he's trying to get the cheap shots in while he can. If he was truly concerned with AMV elitism, maybe he should look in the mirror. I mean, what's up with this lobbying to unban SpPanda? Is it because he's being treated unfairly or because he's a popular AMV maker/poster?
