I'd like to see -MODERATED-...


Again.


In person.

But I would like to see the insults and personal attacks come to an end.

If these means banning anyone who doesn't support C=USA then no, we don't.

I think when we have certain members demanding the banning of someone and then threads appear to see if the site can do it without upsetting the regulars then we have an issue.

It is nice to see how C=USA has managed to rip this site in wto with the help of a few drones.

At least AW.net is keeping their threads to a minimum.

Still, I suppose C=USA and their minions would love to drive away the non-supporters...

Let me put this another way, if Franko goes then I go.

I don't, in anyway, see this as a stance against anti C-USA posts.
But the personal attacks and baseless slander?
Yeah, that's gotta go.

Edit - Added C=USA comment to my signature to see if Franko really want to address every comment.

Everyone was warned in the post right below yours.

Good! My last post was enough off color that in some ways it offended me, so I'll take the censure.
If the term uterus is enough to receive Congressional censure, then the posts you pulled and those you edited certainly deserved it.

Now what about personal attacks? How can we eliminate those without cat calls of favoritism?

That would be nice. Sadly, some people are very polarized over this CUSA issue.

Polarized, but civil would suit me fine. I'm Irish, so if you offend me it eats at me almost indefinitely. That's why I usually avoid going down that path.

And you've only just noticed... ;)

Yup... I've been certified in the past and I'm pretty sure it will happen again sometime in the very near future... :)

If most people in this world consider themselves sane, then that may be the only valid way to be. 'Cus someone around here's nuts.

Nah... it's only ever at 99% these days, Iggy post's more than me that's why he's got the little medal beside his name you only get that when you achieve a 100% posting rate... (the bugger)... :)

I've just got a faster computer than you Franko.

You could always turn yourself in, like in "A Scanner Darkly" :lol:

First you have to spy on yourself, gather data, rat yourself out, then turn yourself in.

Phillip Dick rules!

I moderate myself by not slinging shit in the first place, pretty simple solution if you ask me :idea:


J'accuse! You used rough language.

Keep that shit to yourself.

I wouldn't worry Thorham all this CUSA stuff will end soon enough and the site will get back to being a place for great advice and fun once again... :)

Why would it do that?
Something tells me this has just gotten started and is only going to get worse once C=USA releases an Amiga.
