Adam S,
You post 6 or 7 "follow my other communities" in a row and that's akin to spam. Heck, most of your other communities are "follow my other communities" spamfests.
Google has one of those amazing tools that is incorporated into Google+. It's called Search.
If people are interested in communities you've created based on your interests, they'll find you -- you don't have to spam the world with your self-promoting advertisements.
I personally, have a policy about not blocking or unCircling Buzzers, but damn, you're pushing yourself right to the top of that list. The only reason I haven't yet is because every 15 posts or so you publish something interesting.
It's time for self-reflection.

Adam S actually had the nerve to post a "block and report this spammer" the other day but wouldn't say why he thought that person was a spammer.
When I called him out and noted half his activities border on spam he told me to block him if if didnt want to see it.
Also, I havent checked from desktop yet, but I think he blocked me over this post instead of commenting.
[edited to add proper tag]
I blocked all of his profiles.
Don't lose any sleep over a narcissist who is a raging control freak, hate monger.
However, I'm seeing a lot of that sort of behavior on the Plus lately. Question someone's claim and you're a troll and blocked. Usually after they call you names or tell you to F off.
I don't like that trend. We all make fun of the Fox News adherents for choosing to live in a bubble and yet people are constantly putting themselves in their own created bubble.
Sounds like the philosophical argument that human beings want freedom but choose enslavement.
Last week, he posted " to anyone who is a catholic, F you. In a separate post, he said to any children out there who are catholic, F you.
That's anti social behavior plain and simple. Obsessive anti social behavior.
I observed your tangle with Rizzo last week and I can see both sides. He has or had a dying relative he was speaking about and it appears that you tried to point out how is a better choice for his video with his dad would have been anything but an Apple product. You struck a nerve there, I saw it.
You should have realized he was talking about a sensitive subject, the ultimate death of his father and not the time to try and convince him he made a bad choice of technology.
Sometimes we all have to know when to back off. Adam is incapable and sometimes people get really strong when it comes to their beliefs, but there's a time and a place and I think you may have failed to realize the stress he was under.
That's my observation.
The only way I found out about it was when you posted about it and I totally disagree with that type of action.. You had a disagreement, irrespective of who was right or wrong, seeking public consensus after an argument is something I'd never do.
So we are lol human, and we all need to be a little more cognizant of other people's feelings, that's all.
I don't know if that's why you spoke of the incident but now that you mentioned it, I had to present my objective reply..
Being told to F off was a knee jerk reaction of someone human who was losing his father.
That's my opinion and advice and not meant to troll in any way.
I hope I made my case clearly with no malice.
Not surprising to find that this post has been removed from the community as well:

My comment there, was:
For supposedly free-thinkers, the lack of respect for those who wish to think freely and share their thoughts as atheists in a community designed as such, the hypocrisy and intolerance of differing discussions by some, if not one of the moderators is despicable.
et al I did not intend this to be a Adam S -bashing post, I merely wanted to engage him in conversation about how he appears to others. More of an intervention than anything else.
Thanks for weighing in, though. :D
Gregory Harrison, I think I saw that one, actually.
