Hello Everyone!

Sorry for the delay in getting the site cleaned, but here we are. I have removed Saint for good. NavySue1 is MorfDQ for those of you wondering. Unless they were all 3 the same person... I suppose thats possible!

Everyone please extend a welcome to Me#1you#10 and War Dog as your moderators. They are long standing and active members who will patrol the boards to keep posts on topic and civil.

Now! Lets remember why we are here and what we were discussing. Hopefully no other small distractions will occur.

Thanks,
Admin

If you need more admins, please keep me in mind. I'd be happy to patrol and not post. I knew NavySue was not who he/she claimed.

On a more serious note -- thank you for all the hard work you and the other admins do here. There is no doubt that this past week has been a true test for you all.

Good start but all of the trolls need to go, mikey, craig, sparky, hesoid, etc. They have done to much damage for anyone to accept them now. I think you guy's were a good choice and will keep the Cr*p that was on here this weekend out.

Yes. Be sure to ban all dissenting opinions. Make this site Free Republic 2.

Hey, mikest, don't you mean DU2? Laughing On a serious note, I don't see any reason why you, sparky or Craig s/b banned. Hesiod I'm not sure about, but for now he s/b given the benefit of the doubt. Just my opinion .... Semper Fi!

Yeah. I can see that too. I don't read D/U because my opinions are much more moderate.

As far as mikey, craig, sparky, hesoid go, the moderators will keep an eye on them, as well as everybody else. We're all starting off fresh here, and we will be posting the rules for everybody to see and read. If mikey, craig, sparky, hesoid and anybody else obeys the rules, then there is no reason to ban anybody. Honest, intense discussion and debate on any subject or issue is welcome here. From this point on, if anyone has a problem with another member, PM one of the two moderators, and we will look into it. No more telling who you think should be banned on the open forum threads.

We will be fair with everybody, but we also expect everybody to obey the rules.

Woof!

You are attempting to define legitimate self defense against invaders from DU as "censorship".

It wont work. We're on to you and your usual bag of tricks.


And by the way...

Tell those other nippleheads back at ** (where you come from) that THEY are the single best reason NOT to vote for Kerry.

You can accurately judge a man by the company he keeps, and you can accurately judge a politician by his supporters.

I would rather set my head on fire and put it out with an axe, than to vote for ANY candidate that weasles like you and your friends at DU support.

There is no doubt in my mind that nakona is a vet I can vouche for without personally knowing Wink
btw
You new mods don't be fast on the trigger.
I suppose sending them more than a couple private message warnings without return private message explainations is the way to go?

be advised,
Some actual Sh!t-bird may show up with a chip on his/her shoulder at first and wanting a perch to vent from.
Seriously,
Gotta give people time and the benefit of the doubt.


With that being said,
My "Stupid question" of the day is about thread lengths.

With threads going 5+ pages long,
is there a way when I click on a thread ( I've previously viewed )
I will automatically be taken to the last post I viewed?

On other boards I will see in the reply box something like this;
68 (22)

so I know since my last visit, there have been 22 replies since I left the site. I click on it and zip...there I am taken to the start of those 22 unread posts.


That is all.

It's easy to tell the difference between an Honest Dissenter and a Bush-Bashing Troll. It's frankly astonishing that they apparently don't know how obvious they are. Sometimes I just have to stop and honestly ask myself... "Is he really that dumb? This has to be an act."

airedale, if you click on the little white box to the right of the name in the right hand column, it will take you to the last post on that thread.

Woof!
