Hi folk!

Seems a few morons have graced us recently but they have been dispatched. Please, if you are a new member don't waste time and bandwidth with stupid shit-disturbing posts. You will simply be banned and miss out on truly good and interesting information.

If any existing members think it might be cool to login under a different name and talk shit, don't. I will ban your ass too A member who shall remain nameless *cough *krazik*cough* tried this and I banned him. He's an admin now but that's a long story

So happy times people.

Calm down dude, I know you're just warning peeps, but you're giving yourself the "big bad wolf" image. If you want total control, you should make the MB members only, otherwise this place is just a glorified slow chatroom...and peeps change their names in there like mad.

PS I am with you, I love this board. And the fact that some people come here just to vent irks me to no end, but who am I to say?

Thanks for the moderation, if one wants unmoderated they can go to usenet and write and read all the junk posts they want.

Is there a way to kill file their junk here?

I'm with cthree. I have better things to do with my time than to sift through a million posts of garbage. I hate when boards get like that so hopefully with good moderation, this one won't.

Thanks c3
David

BTW, we can track your IP addresses so if you are banned, you are SOL. Coming back with different name would not work. Happy posting!!!

Thanks cthree for making this a hospitable place to hang out. We've had a few trolls stir up alot of stuff, but I just ignore them. Nonetheless, I agree that some should be banned, others can be reeled in and become moderators and even administrators . But seriously, thanks for having us on all the time and putting up with some of our fervor and passion-driven crap.

I'm with C3 on this one. Once the board degrades into a lot of junk posts, many of us will flee. The general civility and intelligence of most of the posts on this board (Greg Stevens being the exception ) is one of the reasons I keep coming back.
