I'm glad I missed the deleted thread.
Finding someone fishing my spot doesn't bother me much because there's always somewhere else to go. I even met someone from this site who was really nice when I was fishing one of "my" spots and realized it was also "his" spot, probably for longer than I had fished it.
What brings out the worst in me is people who don't respect the fish or the area they fish. Last night, I was fishing the canal with a buddy and we split up for a while. I ended up within earshot of a couple of loud younger guys who were talking about how one was going to keep a short fish until the Coast Guard showed up and measured it and made him return it to the water. I didn't realize the Coasties measured fish at the canal? Anyways, I moved further away and when I went back by their location later, I picked up a bunch of plastic bags, hook packages and a water bottle. For cryin' out loud, take it with you or put it in a trash can. It's not like you're having to carry 50 pound of crap back to your car.
