Title: ENOUGH ALREADY
Post by: T Brockette on December 04, 2005, 11:29:13 AM
I have been a member of this site since 2001, and this it the second attempt to contact anyone with authority, to explain why this site allows some of the nonsense. Once again you have a degenerate punk who has been posting alarming threads that someone has died.

If you pay any attention at all to this site, you will know that the user Sawbones is one of, if not the most, respected people on this site. Now some one has had the audacity to post a very derogatory picture and statement about him.

Good grief, will you please do something. Enough is enough. Please don't tell me there is nothing you can do, because I know better. Ban this person and keep banning them. This has been going on for too long. If you are not going to govern this site, in which you own, then sell the damn thing. Maybe the next owner will take a little pride in it.

Maybe they want to sell the site again and are trying to get rid of all the regulars...

I think their excuse before was something like "Oh well we can't regulate what goes on in the misc. forums"...

I notice the same cycle every few months.  Something happens, everyone gets angry and goes Frankenstein on the site and a riot ensues, someone suggests another site to go to and everyone attacks them, changing the focus of the riot and starting a flame war, causing a couple people (regulars) to leave the site and then everyone is like "oh no, ---- left that's horrible, this site is declining" and a general conversation of depression ensues until everyone forgets about it.  Add in repetitive questions about things that are easily found through a search, a couple fights about that, the fights in the misc-non bowling forum about religion and poltics, another cool off period, more repetitive questions, a sporatic fight about something/someone in the PBA, more repetitive questions and then the next outrageous thing to start the next riot and the next cycle.

EDIT:  I also forgot about the couple of people who insult the ones doing the complaining (which usually also starts a fight), also appearing in some of the other fights to instigate some more.  Can't forget them.

But I guess it's no fun knowing how the site works, right?

Nice site summary, Andy.  


ragnrk, your previous post about a friend of this site's owner is in another topic with the same name as this one in the Misc Non-Bowling forum:

If the offensive posts were immediately deleted, banning a user would be unnecessary. That is unless the user became more motivated to post offensive topics.

My apologies for posting it in two separate forums, but I thought it fell into both catagories. If need be I will delete one.

I agree with Tracy.  Delete the post in question and ban the scumbag.
