An open letter to the Admins.

I don't presume to speak for anybody else here, but i'm guessing the overwhelming majority of folks out here in the provinces are not entertained by the Texas Varsity Team wallowing in an extended, utter temper tantrum on the boards here.

Under such circumstances, the 'ignore' feature so often recommended to deal with troublesome posters works equally well for the entire site.

This is how you turn people off and lose them.

Support your mods and be seen to be doing so, or turn off the lights and cede the boards to the people, because the appearance is that you already have.

The board thrives on the exchange of information. In the short amount of time that your protagonist has been annoying you he has also contributed 5 times the reviews you have over the years.....

He has also started more threads that have garnered more participation than you have.....

So.... What's the problem?

So, this guy is standing at an intersection just looking around. He decides to walk into the middle of the intersection and while STILL LOOKING around he drops his pants, bends over and shows his ugly hairy asshole to everyone! People gawk and stare, some comment, most look away and leave quickly, some people start poking at the ugly asshole, and at least one guy stands there quietly and WHISPERS while he jerks off to the ugly asshole that is STILL LOOKING around.

Even with all the attention, it is an ugly asshole none the less!

Most of the people do not want to see it and will go a different direction to avoid seeing it!

The stubborn ones will poke at it and maybe even team up together to ram something big up the ugly asshole to make it a go away!

So......KC team and mods, are there any actions, policies, rules, etc. that we can consider teaming up together on to put an end to big ugly asshole?

Just ignore the a-hole. Who cares?

Why wouldn't this post be a violation of the guidelines covering being respectful to other members or insulting members?

Surely the poster can ask a question and make a point without referring to a member as "asshole" right?

It's obvious favoritism is running rampant here in KC.

Let's try to stay on topic and leave the name calling or personal insults out of here please.

#4 - Blatant insults or hostility toward another member will be met with staff intervention. This applies to using our coed forums for name calling, personal attacks, or vulgar slang terms to describe fellow members. If you have legitimate concerns about another member here, share them tactfully in the appropriate private forums or with staff.

[boxxman]

Hell, just break the rules, and ban-hammer them. Whisper and Still Looking, I don't know why you guys are here, "spreading freedom" as the old saying goes, but, you guys are annoying. SL, what did Our Kansas & KC forum do to you?

Exactly what do you" thinck" this thread is about? That way we can stay on topic. Your assistance would be appreciated.

Oh no problem here but I do have one question. Does SL ever let you get on top??

[Guest052316]

+1000 to Boxxman. Whispers and SL have taken a good portion of the fun out of this for me. I with they'd quit playing their "let's push the rules" game so I don't have to sort through dozens of posts each day that I have no interest in.
