IMO, the problem is less AFCat and more phognet. While afcat is a doofus, they swarm to him like flies to honey. There would be less of a problem if they allowed more freedom on that board. Instead, they whack rival posters who bring great content as well as sharp wit, solely because those posters get the best of the mods and 99% of the phlock.
F them. They wanted afcat. They got him.
