thanks for dropping by feel free to share the link taking my talents elsewhere. done with the assholes who only troll for personal attacks with personal attacks. nothing else to say to those close minded fools. no further use for liars and trolls who would rather run to mommy. f'n pussies, who need the comfort of superiors telling them their schtick is just fine, when it's not. it's intentionally offensive. sad that everyone is blind and inured to religious nut sacks and their holier than thou routine. good riddance. i can express myself anywhere. don't need to hang with losers in the grotto lot anymore. they know my opinion. i'll say what i have to say elsewhere. those who want to engage me should do so without rancor or personal attack on me, or expect the same in response. |

How do you keep it troll free when guests are welcome to post? You know the asshole that's been banned on .org and annoying many on multiple websites will tap into here because he has nothing better to do.
Anyway, thanks for keeping it real with real people.

any old troll can post here. for the most part i ignored troll#1 in the lot. when i responded to his direct attack on me, with a personal attack on him, i got banned. actually, i was unaware that i had been banned. i never noticed til scarlet pointed it out.
i never wanted anyone banned from the lot. never wanted to be a moderator. anonymity is sufficient. don't have atrguments about politics irl. no percentage in it. but i'm a big boy. i expect to defend myself and i don't need a moderator to defend me. if people become offensive, they'll be mostly ignored. other than that reviled. other than that who gives a rat's ass? not concerned with who does what.
open it up. dip shits welcome. gird yer loins, dipshits.

trolls are a fact of life and probably unavoidable. moderating is too damn difficult as everyone thinks some different set of people are trolling and should be banned. I'd never make it as a mod because I'd ban everyone.
good luck keeping discussions here on a level playing field. I'll hang around for a while and see if there gets to be enough critical mass for decent discussions.

this is true jon and to keep any trolling in check im
willing to hand a set of keys to any of you guys/gal here
this place will only get some traction if we all put
a little effort into it feel free to post the link
anywhere you would like I think getting outside of the jamband boards
will bring in people that want to discuss the issues and not just bust balls
like the grotto has become I've linked it to a few news sites
and special interest groups but its going to take some time
and if a guest does show up and the board looks dead odds have it
they wont return
this could be a nice break from what we have been doing over the past few years
if we want it
peace all and thanks for the support
