i don't think so.
that's all his does. People that only snark and do not add to the conversation limits the quality of the forum. Those that stalk others should be banned after the first warning! He was warn several times. yes he has mental problems and is on drugs for his problem, but that doesn't give him a pass.

Don't be Mat Drool!

Shut the fuck up says Moderator M. You don't get to say people are on drugs unless you're there taking them too. THERE WERE NO WARNINGS. YOU COMPLAINED. I CHATTED. NO BANNING BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLONK A USER. He wasn't "stalking" you, he was replying because he wanted to. on TWO discussions! TWO! Open forum, yadayada. Simon has always responded to polite requests. No one gets banned for mocking others. Banning is serious and rare.

You so fucking annoy me, I pass you off to the other moderators. And this socks stinks just as much as any other.

How about a sock translation/ secret identity thread.
Anyone that doesn't want to know, doesn't have to look.

Anyone could list their own and reasons (if any).
Otherwise, the moderators could.

Start one and see who participates. As a mod, I'd not say. Not unless someone crosses lines consistently and eplayans need to know for their own safety.

I do recall that you were a victim of forum stalking. Was that a resolution you proposed and was that followed through with.

You make an interesting point Ventura.

But it's one that I'd rather not speak to as I'm not wanting to dig up that putrid, dead horse.

My point was not make a statement of fact that you can't prove without absolute certainty. It strikes me as possibly libelous which is thin ice for anyone to be walking.

BTW, you folks do know that Isotopia and are are partners. We wear each others socks all the time. Well, some of the time.

Mocking! Death inuendos, Rape! I only gave you two posts and not others. Replies that were out of the context pointed to me. He's has stated that he's on allderine and suffers from ADD himself! He's good for a few days and then its back to the same ol shit! With his Simon or other socks! I'm not the only one that has mention problems with him as well.

Don't worry, I do have him plonked!

Badger, thanks for the reply!

i find it incredibly depressing to have my words quoted along with such an idiotic attack.

please ... ventura, or AIIZ, or anyone else, don't quote people out of context when you attack someone.

i keep wanting to wash my posts out with soap or something now, to make this filth go away ... ugh.

This is why I just tell people to solve their own personal problems. I can moderate commerce and specific violations such as the posting of real world info... but when it comes to personal battles, y'all have to use that plonk feature or walk away from your damn computer. I try not to get in between, trying not to muddy the water and confuse things. Sure, I'll check out complaints, but most of the time, unless we get a Naomi-type, most of the time it is something simple which can be resolved with a gentle word or two.

It is possible to just Stop It. Do folks really need to tell me, "He's touching me, he's on my side of the car, he won't stop picking on me?" PLONK! I wish I could.

Or at least adjust your attitude and read humor for the face value. Most of the time, the "attacks" aren't attacks at all, just sarcasm gone awry.

And as Badger has pointed out, there's no need to dig up dead horses. Let them rot, I say. Move on. Have fun. There's more to life than this tiny forum.

What is a Naomi type?

Let it be known that I do appreciate all that you, AntiM and all the Mods have done for me. I do know that you can't mediate every person that acts in a hostile manner.

Let the Plonking Begin!

A very troubled woman who appeared on the boards. Never were quite sure what her deal was, something about Burning Man and dirty hippies and a hazing incident at a university. If you missed it, well, it was scary-bad.

no one will ever truely believe you or understand - not to the level of reality - of just how incredibly disturbed some are here.

the sun which attracts from its light - traps those into a terminally retrograde orbit to blind by the spectacular corona's. as we are forced to watch others strained of thier gravity well, there's only so much that can be done... some are simply destined to incinerate themselves... slow or quick.

Unfortunately some go beyond supernova and form a black hole that sucks all things, including light, into it's incomphrehensible subversive space warp.

I think Simon's posts are very artistic. I think of him as a verbal illustrator. He constantly has his sketch pad out drawing what he see's.

Since he draws what HE is see's not what you or I see, we might not really like his drawing. But still, like other artists, there is still a high level of art in his work.

I for one apprecate his posts and the effort he makes to express what ever the fuck it is that comes out.

If he draws a scary picture all anyone has to do is explain that, "thats Simon, it's ok"

(I hope the medaphor is clear)
