Quintus Arrius Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Note to the Congregation I just thought I would confirm something most members may be blissfully unaware of: that in random test-drives taken through the various threads recently, I can certify with complete confidence that the enhanced anti-trolling software feature(s) as implemented, function with breathtaking perfection and efficiency. I am beginning to suspect this firewall, impervious to breach as it were, has no back-door, no by-pass pass-word and no over-ride features. This is my own provisional assessment; other members' experiences, may differ from my own. [Mother of mercy, is this the end of ... ? Will there come a time when members cannot recall a time Before Be Nice or Be Gone?] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truer words have never been spoken. I have been thrown off the Board many more times than I have fingers and re-admitted each and every time I apologized after she heard my feeble knock at the door. She is tops in my book! GoldFinger1969 and GBrad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus Arrius Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 On 10/13/2020 at 10:48 AM, dena said: It seems that some need a reminder of the guidelines accepted when creating an account here. Recently there has been an uptick in the number of unacceptable posts. As a result, there will be greater scrutiny of the material posted here. In summary, the following will not be tolerated: Political posts Mud Slinging Trolling Baiting Masking Inappropriate references (analogies, etc.) to significantly emotional topics such as Nazis, slavery, etc. Threads started explicitly to bash other members Hi-jacking of other people's threads in a way that stifles the originally intended topic Disrespect The disrespect exhibited in recent posts is overshadowing all the positive and valuable content being posted here and is creating a climate of hostility. It is particularly disappointing to see the way in which new members and collectors are being treated. Using words like ignorant and stupid is not the way to educate and welcome the well intentioned folks making an effort to embrace this community. It stops now. [The opening post from: "Violate the Guidelines and you will be Suspended or Banned," started by dena, October 23, 2020.] Re-posted as a public service.
