Personally I found fiddy's posts to be some of the most entertaining on here. I used to let him get to me and sure, some of it gets too long winded and redundant to pay a whole lot of attention to but wether you like him or not he and a few others are the reason why we have such an incredible riding destination in our back yards.
You gotta tip your hat and be grateful for everything the Sedona underground builders have created.

I'm assuming the one trick pony he always pulls. If you see an eight page ramble about how Jennifer in the FS is out to fu*k the little guy out of his user experience in Sedona, you can pretty much guess who wrote it.
Crazy. I went looking for the post(s) that invited the wrath of the BanHammer, morbidly curious to see what finally tipped the scales; only to find every recent post in the Lower Nat'l PSA thread, along with both the recent-ish Sedona threads completely missing from the forum list.
Straight up deleted.
Like, zoinks Scoob; something strange is goin on around here!
How does 50cent get erased, but MrWhlr not even get a timeout?
It's no secret that TD and I have butt heads once (or five times) on here. I never complain until it gets personal and dirty or just plain stupid and mean. Its the same way I would treat the situation in person. It helps if a persons posts are funny 25% of the time like MrWhlr. For me, if you are a big enough dick that a majority of the population does not want you around, and natural selection doesn't fix it, I do not mind pulling out the wit pistol and putting them out of thier misery. Or just flag the post I think is crap. Let's ride bikes! Saturday night EH to Table Mesa and back anyone?
Yeah unless he said something that got removed before I had a chance to read it, I don't think anything that has been said recently has been ban worthy. Regardless, its no secret I'm not a huge fan of his tactics but we can all be rested assured that he will be back in no time with his typical drivel, hyperbole, and diatribes.
Curious if 50/TD is following this thread anonymously post-ban. I'm sure we'll see a new username soon enough.
It feels awkward to talk about a guy in the third person, especially to disparage him, but...
50cent/traildoc is undeniably narcissistic and self aggrandizing, but at least his posts were entertaining to read, and he *IS* capable of engaging in rational, adult conversation. He just can't keep it in check very well.
Mrwhlr on the other hand, I blocked a long time ago, and my MTBR experience is better for it.
I don't know the guy in real life, but on this site he's a raging a$$hole with nothing even remotely contributory to say. I have to resist the urge to neg rep the guy on principle even though all I ever see of his posts unless someone quotes him is 'This message is hidden because Mrwhlr is on your ignore list" . having the misfortune of seeing his posts quoted just reminds me that his posts are all the same- sarcastic and witless hate.

I still want the GM Kook guy back. Man he was fun. Does anyone know if he is still in Sedona? You know, the guy with the pretty wife and koi pond. He *****ed about the dumbing down of trails and then *****ed about not being able to ride Hangover and the like.
I rode with him once, about 20 min into the ride (on chuckwagon) he went OTB, broke his helmet, smashed his face and had to limp back to his car. Maybe the head damage was worse then we knew? Last I ever saw of him
You know, I had ignored that fcker for a long time and just enjoyed the entertainment over the last few years. What finally made me snap was the bull$hit he started posting in the missing biker thread. As a parent, he said some **** that really infuriated me and I finally blew up and fed the troll. Ever since then, every time i saw a post by him, my rage meter would peg all the way to the right.
He was doing ok in the National thread until he started posting completely random and unrelated crap about some CA trails. I mean seriously... WTF?!
He just needs to stay off the internet and surgically attach a McLeod to his hand while also stop any interaction with other human beings. Clearly he's not capable of communicating with others online.
And yet here we are talking about him. This is what he wants. Again, I took the bait. FAK!!!
I'm not sure when I deleted him but it was when I searched his IP and came up a bunch of AZ forum trolls that had been previously banned including insguy and sweatequity. I made it a little harder for him to come back and if you can't get on MTBR because of a blocked IP when you are out in Sedona, you can thank him and his tireless trolling.
Cool, that's bringing down the Ban Hammer. You banned all IP addresses from Sedona. Brilliant:thumbsup:
Traildoc is living the dream in Tahoe. He can't ride in Sedona until next December. Banned by the FS and mtbr. What's next? He's already dodged the Grim Reaper twice. Doubt he cares.

Why block Sedona IP addresses just to shut out one guy? It's pretty obvious who he is each time he returns with a new username. His writing style and thought process are pretty unique.

I didn't actually ban the Sedona IP, I banned the IP's associated with these trolls only. However Trolls tend to go to coffee shops and libraries once their home IP's get blocked and so if you happen to hang out where these people troll you might find that you can't access MTBR from there. If that is the case you can let one of the moderators know and we will lift that IP block but if a troll comes back from it, it will more than likely get blocked again.
I never did a full IP search on the locations of all the trolls I blocked so some might have been from california. Honestly don't have enough time to worry about where trolls are from.
Too bad you have to go to all that work due to children like TD.
