Question to the members

[Schweddy]

I think I know exactly who you permanently banned. I'll PM you.

Responded, any insight would be appreciated.

The bastard offspring of 26x world champs and Billo. Similar to an Ogre yet stupider. They live under bridges on Barca-loungers and charge a toll for crossing. They use the bones of children to pick their teeth. Known to be frightened of monkeys and allergic to Pez. Plaid loin clothes or zebra thongs are a dead give away. Foul smelling, non-bathing, and always with bad gas, they are an ill tempered group, ugly as sin, and are not above using their toll proceeds to bribe their way into society and positions of power, where they lord pompously over those of keener intelect. They are also know to schmooze cute little socialists, which is very disturbing to witness. We actually have one as a member here at PD. Goes by the name of cnredd. Looks strangely like another "member" whom discretion forbids me from naming. If you can't handle the truth, stay away from the member pic thread. You'll see what I mean.

Oh, those trolls, you mean the ones that look like Danny DeVito and dress like Ted Nugent and act like Karl Rove? And very often you see them dressed in strangely colored leather jackets. And they have those long ponytails in the back and no hair on the top of their heads. But still somehow they believe that every woman they meet wants them. I know those guys.

We have cute little socialists here? Really?

I think maybe you should call the penalty box the padded cell or the cooler. Just a suggestion.

Nah, I'm more seksier.

me-I just got the willies.

So teach, the short answer is that you would agree with a "penalty box"?

me-Oh lord yes. We can get to them, but they not to us. Oh fun. And I guess when I'm in there I could talk to myself. But I'm used to that.


It's hard to be as nuts as you - your good at it!

me-I'm a trained professional. Please don't try this at home. It scares the kids if they are not used to it, like mine are. Yes, there are little mes running around out there.

We often use the temp ban function (3 day-7 day ) as means to an end. And we have an upgrade process to Full Membership, we do however have certain areas (Adult oriented) that this forum does not. It is my experience that if Newbies are isolated, stagnation creeps in, so personally I would avoid doing so.
It has been noted in this thread that most of the issues can be dealt with thru active Moderation, and here I would agree....Its not much fun to be the bad guy, but that should not keep Moderation from taking place, it would seem most members here understand the need, and are mature enough to take a hint from staff.
