So you and Ron are fine with a situation where good posters (Galeniko, JNN, NotSoNiceMom, Groink, Chaos, etc.) would rather leave or not post because idiots like Shitso and/or Junior are here?
You're a very smart man, I highly doubt anything you've typed was by accident. So my only conclusion is that reading between the lines you're telling the Getbig group that you and Ron won't rid the board of the assholes.....that we as a group have to rid the board of the assholes.
Ron and I like everyone to feel welcomed here. This isn't an old boy's club meant to have a group of guys circle jerk each other with high fives and perpetual compliments. We want everyone to have fun. Now, if someone thinks they can break the rules and get away with it, we will slowly act upon it and have them removed, but it's on Ron's time. He is the one that bans people. I can facilitate it, but my arguments have to be compelling. Plain and simple.
If you collectively don't like someone because they are messing with your overall experience, stand up and do something about it. Don't just ask moderators and/or Ron to remove the person, because you don't like him or her. Stand up for yourselves and use your wit and words to show them that they won't be allowed to ruin it for you. What kind of thunderdome is this where if someone gets on your nerves, instead of fucking owning them into nothing, it becomes a game of pounding away at the "report to moderator" button?
Galeniko was loved for his straight-forward approach to posting and being honest with his material. He has always been respected and was given a chance with "no one" to promote their book on this site with no mention of proceeds for Ron or anyone else. Certain members wanted to discredit their efforts and we backed them up and gave them the support they need.
JNN is a good man. He is honest and always has funny stories to share. He made up his mind to post wherever the fuck he wants. He resurfaced during the gh15 saga and now has taken another hiatus.
Notsonicemom got ran off the forums by Josh/Alex. We removed both Josh and Alex. if she wants to come back, she is free to do so.
Groink is Groink. If he dishes out, he needs to be able to deal with the repercussions in return. That said, whenever trolls and various other characters decided to go after him with private pictures of his partner, niece's information and of his mug shot, I was the first to take arms and wipe out all offenders who decided to do so.
Chaos is here. Chaos is not fazed by any of the petty bullshit that revolves around these issues. He has seen way badder posters make their claim around these parts during times when you had real savage ownings and exposings. He is like one of the last survivors, an old war horse.
