C****

Ask Dan.

I'm not deleting anything he posts unless it is an outright attack against another poster. Other mods may disagree. (Also I can't delete stuff I don't see; if you don't have any links, you will get no action.)

My policy on ILM is -

- personal attacks deleted on request of the attacked individual.

- posters encouraged to ignore him

- hate threads designed to make ILM an unpleasant environment for other people (eg "Fat women disgust me" paraphrases) - I will happily lock or delete these if other people complain about their offensiveness, so feel free to and as Dan says give links. I'm not taking pro-active steps though cos it just sets him off.

This latter is a much bigger problem on ILE but I'm not on ILE anymore so it's none of my beeswax.

I try to avoid the whole ILX mod politics, but just think that it's been scientifically proven that C contributes nothing, only wants to get a reaction, etc. etc. I see that some of his threads have recently been locked, so thanks.

I do think this kind of says it all:

ILM: C-Man 199 (40)
ILE: C-Man 223 (27)

No one's started more threads in the past month. But whatevs... just making an observation. I'll start posting links as well.

I for one am not doing anything without a link, and even then if people have started discussing on the thread I will not delete it; the last time the moderators tried that an irritating vocal minority swamped the boards with bullshit that exceeded everything but the very worst Blount/Calum fight.

So a smaller minority put an end to all of it.

If we actually had a mechanism to ban users, this would be academic.

We can, but only some.
