Are you gonna censor the blogs in the same way as you done with Obnoxious?

[Neal]

If you talk stupidly we will. Is there a problem with that? I think we have been very very fair with the board and tried not to interfere.
Did you think Obnoxious was real and asking real questions? If so I think you may have been the only one.
Unfortunately in order to make joining more hassle free, a few preventive measures were withdrawn and thus the flood gates are more openfor some to test how far they can go.

I think you are wise to get rid of the trolls. I've recently noticed several new names posting for the first time whose writing style strangely resemble former pests. "Spring" is the most recent that I have observed.
Also, if anything, you waited too long to get rid of "Obnoxious".
There is a big difference between censorship and eliminating obvious and deliberate troublemakers whose only object is to disrupt the forum.

Yes I know but we were working on something else on the programming end. Sorry. Also as I am still a bit green to this it takes a little bit before I recognize that something is not right. If you see something, please notify us by clicking (!). You will start to see many more people joining rather quickly because the requirement to send me an email has been removed as Stan is testing his spam guards. A few trolls will get on to the board for a while, I am afraid but the other way there were too many safe guards.

I and Butterflap appreciate any PMs or ! you send our way as we may not have spotted it.

I do not see how "Obnoxious" made trouble or disrupted the forum. I can understand that some people don't find his posts funny, but that's no reason to ban someone. His reports might be fictional, but there is scepticism about other member's reports as well.

I have to agree with christian - obnoxious may have been a fantasist, but his posts weren't offensive in any way.

We don't need to start off a membership with discussing swallowing cum now do we?

Neal, obviously it is up to you and I trust your judgement.

I never saw the post you refer to. But if that is the case, it would have been better to shut him down earlier as you admit. So you gotta get those big stubby fingers out of the pizza and make him go poof sooner. :naka:

I am sure you have info or suspicions about who it is that we may not. So I am perfectly fine with it, especially if it is just a former member trying to stir up trouble. It isn't like it is going to create any big literary or information hole.

Thanks for all the BS you deal with and take care.

[Neal]

Thank you Adman but I do not know who he was. You are correct in that I should have shut him down sooner but I let it wait until several embers started the drums a druming. I don't think I saved it to my invisible forum but if my memory serves me correctly and sometimes it fools me, the first post he made when he joined was all about the moneyboys no longer swallowing his juice and why not etc etc. Personally I found it distasteful, pardon the pun but I really do hate censorship and want to stay out of things as best as possible. When several other members started calling for his head on the platter, I poofed him. Now I am wrong for poofing him but alas he is certainly not the only one all of you asked for a head on the platter. So, as I said in the other thread, someone start a poll and decide what you want. You can't have both.
