Can we have an In Memorium board for all the posters we've lost in the fire?

Oh sorry, I didn't realise that this is a gay board. Come on. Help me. Teach me how to ignore... For future reference, I can teach you. You just don't respond.  And on this topic I know, she has said i'm gay at least 20 times. Nobody believed her. Nobody cared. |

Like I said, she's annoying, but my thought is if no responds to her.. um... comments like that one she'd settle down. I could be wrong though. I was wrong once... way back in 1984. And again in 2017. lol If I ban her, she goes away. If everyone stops feeding her, she goes away. The end result is the same, but only one can actually be accomplished. Maybe I should post a "no talking to awhina" rule and ban all who break it?  I guess the point was not everyone wanted her to go away. If you didn't like her, there was a function for that. If she broke the rules, sure. But calling the board gay? Seriously?  ? But hey, it was up to you. |

That she didn't learn from her previous suspension and lied immediately regarding why she was banned last time did her no good. I even permitted her to put the pm I had sent her. But she backed off from doing that (as it would have proved her a liar again). It was a clear message that she is not willing to follow the norms and rules of the board. |

As a poster who's been wrongfully banned from several boards before...I agree. I don't have my finger on the pulse of this saga, but just saying mean things shouldn't warrant a ban. Breaking the rules and being a general nuisance sure. Ultimately if her actions were causing multiple headaches for the Admin by either causing red flags with proboards or her mass reporting, then fine. But disagreement or even lying...seems like something ignore could solve.
But ultimately like I've said before...it's your board, I'm just living in it. ::smoke1::

Thank you. I think you were more than fair with her, but she was determined to provoke action. Just before I went to sleep last night, I could see this coming. I suspect much of your and the mods' daily time was consumed dealing with this childishness. |

Societal rules can be broken without actually violating judicial law. |

We all sat at the round table during our weekly meeting when Cine handed each of us our assignments.

Aw man, I loved all that stuff about how Cine was our master, and we were all in secret contact to do his bidding. I just enjoyed being able to interact with such 'different' and dysfunctional minds like ada and erjen. I found it fascinating. The fact proof vests they had were utterly amazing. Oh well, I guess im going to have to go rouse the bag lady who sleeps under the wharf, and try and talk sense into her for kicks now. |

Maybe they could let her stay if she posts under the name 'Forum Bag Lady'. |

I kept my responses to her down to a minimum preferring to treat her behavior as a semi-entertaining reality tv show.
But I think the biggest problem is if she doesn't get what she wants from the admin, she'll go to the ProBoards people (if she hasn't already done so) with her phony complaints. One day I saw someone offer to give her the e-mail address for ProBoards. I'm afraid if this happens repeatedly, they may eventually decide to delete everything here just to be done with it.

I can't imagine how many complaints they had to deal with on the iMDB boards from her and because of her. I wouldn't be surprised if her name was mentioned in the meetings leading up to the decision to do away with those boards. |

The number of posts and activity spiked on her return from what had been a long lull in her absence. Sadly her contribution was mainly of bile, hatred and bigotry wrapped up in her lies. |

I know Col Needham said they received thousands of abuse reports on the IMDb each day. Because of the massive number, I can understand why they chose not to always get involved with determining the validity of each complaint. Their solution was to just delete. I don't know how many sites are in the ProBoards family, but it could be enough to where they also decide to delete for convenience or for fear of running afoul of some hate-speech laws.

tpfkar That all works until she's consistently harassing an admin, not just civilly disagreeing. Not to mention off-site trash talking. And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking, but when you're good and crazy, oooh, oooh, oooh, the sky is the limit. |

Yeah, thats a tricky situation. I do wonder if she is more or less likely to kick up a fuss now that she has been banned though... |
