How do we keep Hobbes (and the like) from chasing away valuable new contributors to the forum? Discuss...

Maybe we can figure that out when one shows up.
I wish he could just be nice like everyone else
Exactly. The fucktard is going to roooin it fer everyone.
- join as new member with an interest in improving game and learning more about poker
- start writing some new threads
- get chewed up by the regulars
- get fed up with all the slack and just stick to posting vs initiating new threads
- go on to win a big score
- stop posting on cpf and stick to lurking
- stop lurking and join 2+2
oops...sorry...already done
Most of what I've seen.....
Lifecycle of CPF member:
- join as new member with an interest in picking fights and telling everyone that they know more about poker than anyone here
- start writing some new threads that are devoid of any spelling and grammar skills
- get chewed up by the regulars for constantly whining about how good they are and how Stars screws them.
- get fed up with all the slack and just stick to posting the usual BS vs initiating new threads
- go on to be a cheerleader for Vekked, BTP or Wetts as they win a big score
- stop posting on cpf when they can no longer take the heat of being told grammar and self examination counts
- stop lurking and join 2+2

no you
You sir, can lead the parade.
u mad cause I took you out with 86sooooooted?
I didn't think it was Hobbes.
Anyway, this is sort of a skin thickening forum else you have to have fun in jesting.
You could have a vote up / vote down system for threads if it's that important but some people are going to take offense anyway.
Nah, never even noticed........
I'VE GOT IT!
Whenever he gets out of hand just post this sign on the front page......
You're welcome.

It was, what made you think it wasn't?;)
No need to feel stupid Darb, I'm sure Comp did intend this to be a serious question. However, given his audience I'm sure he assumed it would turn into what it has.
Which is actually pretty funny.
however, sadly we are on the internet and that means people can be a lot more rude than in real life. no offense, but i know some of the 'meaner' posters would definitely think twice about what they say if the person they were ridiculing was standing right in front of them. boo to anonymous confidence - you're more of an idiot/jackass than you think.
Meh, I'm not too big on suffering fools gladly in real life either.
I am usually one that believes any form of change is possible. In this situation, I don't believe this is the case.
