Franknputer Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 In the light of day, it seems that we may have been partially responsible for the bullshit late last night. While the person in question is clearly an unbalanced jerk, we didn't help by pushing him to that childish outburst; and the best response might have been to vacate the board until a moderator could clean house. As it is, there's 2 pages of either obscene or antagonistic topics - some of the latter posted by yours truly, in a (long) moment of frustration. Now, Myles has a lot more cleaning up to do, and we may have put off some good people from this forum who happened across this little flame-fest. So let me say this: To Myles, I'm sorry. In trying to defend our spot, we made a big mess. Your house deserves better than that. To those who might have been put off by all this, I hope that you can look past all of that as an anomaly. There really are good people here, with a lot to offer. Stick around, and forgive a little bad behavior. To the regulars - let's think about this a little next time. We probably shouldn't get into a pissing contest with an unbalanced troll. It just gets piss everywhere. http://thewingsofwisdom.com/peace_stuff/peaceflags_g.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowbell Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 Yeah I know. Bumping up the posts seemed like an easy solution at the time, but turned out to be a really big mess. Once this guy is gone, we need a strategy to stop this from happening again. How bout no more new members.......nah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Keelan Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 As difficult as it might be, we just need to let them threads sink like rocks. Let him do his little thing and then, if need be, bump up the 'real' threads. bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my year or so here, this "forloveofmusic" fellow, or whoever, or whatever, was the first posts I ever deleted. The group in here are pretty cool folks. This forum is much better than a lot of them out there in regard to sharing good info. In the future, as somebody elsewhere in here said, when there is some lame post, just let it die without a response. I think we can all sort of self police ourselves pretty effectively. I mean, if I wanted to be a cop in here and had some power trip agenda, I would not be here at all, I would have stayed in the military back in 1969 rather than bail out when I had the chance Myles S.

Dan South Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 Any forum that closes its doors to new members is going to be (a) dull, and (b) dead in about a year. People come and go. There's only so small you can make the guest lists before the party loses its vitality. So, if you don't mind my asking, what happened around here? I don't see *A-HEM* as many posts as I did yesterday. The Black Knight always triumphs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
