This is F*cking stupid

[CJ01]

No, not just stupid it´s insulting!!
If I post something I expect it to show okay !!!
MY posts don´t need bloody screening from anyone.
What the f*ck is this all about.

[belgareth]

Sorry for this, it\'s a pain for all of us. Some idiot was spamming and really tearing up the forum. He was making up duplicate log in names and them insulting everybody. It really got bad. As soon as Bruce can figure out a way to get rid of this guy, we will get rid of this screening. It is not intended to stop you or anybody else for legitimate postings, it\'s only intended to stop an idiot from ruining it for all of us.

[CJ01]

I know about this guy- I was there but this is way over the top in my opinion.

[belgareth]

Hopefully, it will go away in a day or so. I don\'t think anybody likes it. Please understand that we are not editing or limiting any posts other than from this one guy.

[franki]

I was just as angry as you were when I first found out about it, but I have to say it is not really as bad as I thought It would be. I just feel sorry for those three moderators who have to stay around all the time. /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif

Gives us a good excuse to keep up with the forum. /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif

[cuddlebear]

Tell us about it! We\'d rather be reading hit stories! But anyway, some of you may not be aware of everything this nut has done ... he has tried to impersonate Bruce, CptKipling, FTR, MadMaxx and myself and maybe more than that .. some of it you never saw because Bel & Upsidedown nipped it in the bud .. anyway Bruce will lift the screening process as soon as the coast is clear .. thanks everyone for your patience ...

you guys getting paid?? keep up the good work.

[belgareth]

Not getting paid. Just helping. Thanks for the support and patience.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

I\'m really enjoying the peace, actually. I\'m very grateful for your efforts and for the protection from the harassment. Thank you very much for your vigilence.

[belgareth]

You\'re welcome. I think all of us will be happier when we can open the forum up again without some moron disrupting things.

[Paul canada]

Wow CJ never saw this \"angry\" side to you... I think I like it..:)

[koolking1]

CJ, if you had seen the bogus PM I got from this fakester you would be in full agreement. It came with a pic - aye caramba. Bruce and Co are on target with the closer scrutiny.

[Phantom]

i\'ve noticed, when no Green moderators are on that the posts go through normally like if there was no restriction at all.

[Phantom]

Yo bro/s, speed it up man! it\'s taking like 5 minutes until my sh!t/s get posted.























lol just kidding. NOT!, you guys take tooo long!!!

[Watcher]

I think its a good idea, should keep things calm around here, and CJ01 just play along, it will stop flamers etc from ruining it for everyone, just as long as thing stay under the 10 minute mark for clearence im ok with it.

[Phantom]

Yea, poor upsidedown was alone last night and got plummeted with posts /ubbthreads/images/icons/frown.gif thats probably why it was taking so long.

[slickracer]

Whoa! look what i came across

while doing research.

what ever happened mods?

[woofa1]

Yeh, I Spent About .5 Hour

On A Post About 2 Weeks Ago. It Was Quite Meaningfull And I Needed A Reply. But When I Went To Post Everything

Zapped Out. I Coudnt Even Retrieve It. So I Hope All This Nonsense Is Rectified? But I Do Appreciate The Moderators.

You Cant Have Any Tom Dick And Harry Impersonating Others That Is Just Not On?

"imparting Knowledge Enriches

One Soul"

[slickracer]

hey woofa i think your post

got zapped or something because of somehting else, because this happened about 3 years ago, if you look at the

date.

and from what i read it seems like the mods had to pre-approve the post after you post them, before being

able to be viewed by people.

[belgareth]

That happened a long time ago,

was a big pain in the back end and we had to deal with it. We actually do very little now and almost never delete a

post. If we do delete a post, unless its somebody who has been warned time and again, we send a note to the user

explaining why it was done. I'm the last person who would act as a censor or support censorship.

In any case

though, if you think your post has been deleted or censored in any way PLEASE contact by PM any one of the mods and

let us know. If we don't know what happened we can find out for you. The answer may be that the forum stuttered or

there may be a reason. But if you ask me I promise you will get answered. The other mods are the same way.

[woofa1]

YEh, has only happened

once. ALL post since have gotten through ok.

I LIKE THE FORUM, PURELY BECAUSE I THINK THAT MOST POST ARE A

HONEST AND CANDID REFLECTION OF PEOPLES OPINIONS. AFTER ALL WE ARE LIVING IN A DEMOCRACY?

ANY OPNION IS NEITHER

WRONG OR RIGHT. AS LONG IT IS NOT PERSONAL?

PEOPLE CAN LEARN FROM THE MOST MUNDANE OR WHAT IS PERCEIVED

INSIGNIFICANT OPINION. SO LETS KEEP IT REAL.

'KNOWLEDGE ENRICHES ONE SOUL'

[belgareth]

We did go through a period where

there were a lot of personal attacks made on people for any number of excuses. We did a lot of censoring of that

nonsense. And there are a few other things we'll cut, like bigotry and that type thing. Other than that, the free

exchange of ideas is what we want to encourage.
