Haha, very true! Actually, we just made that requirement, but maybe it should be lower, as it just needs to be high enough so that fuckwits who have no karma can't fuck with others.

And reporting is different than karma rating. We get notified of reports.

I still need to post some details of the latest tweaks we've made to the system, and even get some feedback (heaven help me) on the tweaks.

Well it wasn't worth reporting, but worthy of a negative karma, so sucks to be me At least you are making progress tweaking the system.

He is well-known for calling others a cunt, but when someone calls THEMSELVES a cunt it's too much? I don't see how there is any logic in this at all, and I'm sure I'm not the only one to see a bit of irony here.

Again, we can't read minds, and people like John Bingham who claim they are so sick of trolls want to walk out, they have every right to do so, even though I find it ironic he happily posts on the old forum who seem to make no effort to eliminate such trolls. To each their own though.

That's the issue: why is he allowed so many different incarnations? I honestly don't understand the leniency both here and on K440 for the guy and other trolls. I know CEO came about through the "tyranny" of the previous K440 owner' and his whims. However, I do think it's taken way too far at times by giving TONS of chances to people who give no added value to the forum and even make it worse in pretty much every possible way. I don't understand why K440 made a thread for him. Well, I understand it but was against it. I was partly happy because it confined him to a single thread for his crazy shit, but it also meant it was always at the top of the "unread" part since him and violet were always writing something. It was like the new "Life is Bored". They thankfully eventually banned him because, surprise surprise: his crazy ramblings and swearing at posters never abated. They even allowed a few of his future handles to keep posting for a while (sometimes after giving him yet more leniency). I think he's now given the banhammer every time he pops up. Anyways, I agree with JB and don't know what's up with all the leniency. It's one thing to ban someone because they have a different opinion or disagree from you, but it's quite another to ban someone who only pollutes threads because he clearly has a mental disorder of some sort (or is simply the best troll in troll history). The guy contributes absolutely nothing to threads and drives away quality posters like JB.

well he is croc bait in cairns now
maybe he will meet up with Ken Svay

You, of all people, don't understand it? Hmmmm. I always find it embarrassing for you when you always end up back on the old forum. You, of all people, get treated like real dog shit over there quite often, and have seemingly wised up a few times, declaring you will no longer go back on there and support them, but always end up crawling back. I mean, they get real personal with you, talking about your jobs, etc, and that's not just from trolls, but also members, admin and mods. I cringe when I see the way you get treated over there and what's allowed to be said to you. And when finally seems you have some self respect.... sooner or later you go limping back. Fuck that. Who in their right mind would allow everyone to take personal jabs at them and their work history like that, especially when most people know them IRL, and then go back again and again?

You and I don't always "get along" but the fuck if we'd ever let ANYONE get treated like that on here.

So, you of ALL people, would be the best to understand someone's mentality of continuing to go back to a forum/topic that they say they truly hate. That truly beggars belief, imho.

Agree 100% with being treated like dogshit. It's what happens when one calls a spade a spade and dares to criticise the money-making machine...'so it means the death of a few brown people, but it provides jobs, and we have to be practical, blah blah blah'....

My point was the forum admin created the safe space for cw, to kind of keep him away from everybody, claiming they hated his posts.

Yet scobienz was one of the most regular visitors...kind of confusing, no?

I have various reasons for going back, don't ever assume one of them is because I like the admin or the majority of the members...

One group of people I have really grown to dislike is ultra-conservative Brits...I do find it kind of funny that they stand up so much for the UK, but they can't get decent jobs there themselves because their own govt has forsaken them, but they still feel a desperate need to remain loyal, LOL. Maybe it's a desire to be in a better class, I don't know.

I think when I dared to speak out about what the IDF was doing during their last installment of the genocide, then things got really nasty. KiR was Jewish, I believe, nothing wrong with that, but he was a full-on supporter of people like Nutteryahoo, and the same goes for several of his friends, despite what they stated online. As sson as Rain Dog started making a fool of their spokesman, he was banned...

I do greatly appreciate that the same kind of low shite that you mention is not allowed on here, and I suggest people take cognisance of that.

I find it somewhat ironic that the supposedly supremely-educated illuimnati on TOF have lower standards.

Tbh, I feel it has become a playground for ultra-conservative (who can't get their govt fixed so as to provide decent jobs back home) and protectors of Zionist/IDF crimes.

But yeah, I am finally at the stage where I don't care if I stay or leave, it has been totally destroyed, imo.

PM me when you are back in the Pig Penh

On topic but a slight tangent, I'm kind of confused. Are we saying "Batty" is trapper? Because I thought batty and trapper were two different people.

And then I've seen "CW" mentioned twice now, but I'm confused, are those their initials in real life? I'm assuming it's "batty" on the other forum but am not sure.

b s c w is a partial emoticon here
2 completely different people.
the first one is permabanned for the same kind on nonsense that generally causes "his" thread to head the active topics list over there

Okay thank you. I think I've got a handle on things now.

I'm not surprised you're confused, it is a little batshitcrazy
