Hello all, and sorry for top posting mobile device.

The amount of noise generated by Elad Cohen and unwillingness to listen has degraded the lists. Polite rejections of his proposals have quickly degenerated into name calling and conspiracy theories by him.

I am not affiliated with RIPE NCC other than being a LIR, I do not know Elad Cohen before these threads. Quick searches on his name show dubious business practices, as seen with regards to prefix hijacking.

I consider his actions on the list very close to overstepping Code of Conduct, and good intentions. I fully support both him being moderated on the list, and not being eligble for a position as RIPE chair or similar for the moment.

Best regards

Henrik Kramselund Jereminsen, owner of dk.zencurity

Subject: Re: [members-discuss] Regarding Elad Cohen's nomination and emails

Hello all,

I would like to voice my support for this. The amount of unprofessional conduct in the past 2 or 3 email chains is simply ridiculous and completely unacceptable.

Thank you,
Filip

This is with regards to statements like this:

"Ripe have 30 millions euros of expenses each year that are hidden and now shown to where exactly they are paid, instead of that corruption"

I believe that he does indeed make unreasonable allegations towards the RIPE NCC to damage it's reputation.

Hello,

I would like to request that Elad Cohen be blocked from sending to the members-discuss mailing lists after multiple offtopic threads started by Elad and the personal attacks and ignoring WG chairs telling Elad to stop.

I would further like to point out that as he is a confirmed candidate for the Exec Board, one of his key responsibilities would be to have the "Ability to communicate effectively", which he has shown that he is not capable of.

I would personally say that elad lacks most of the expectations listed on https://www.ripe.net/about-us/executive-board/ripe-ncc-executive-board-functions-and-expectations.

I would like to propose that the RIPE NCC ban Elad Cohen from interacting with the RIPE Community (via Meetings or mailing lists) due to his blatant disregard for the Code of Conduct and for being hostile towards others in the community. As the RIPE NCC hosts and manages these lists I think the RIPE NCC has a responsibility to keep the lists professional and to remove those who repeatedly ignore what the WG chairs are saying.
