I wouldn't bother with it, Pam. It's nothing more than a personal war between Steve and Elmo, with some bit players chiming in here and there. Evidently S and E love their hatred for each other so let them enjoy it unmolested.

That's what I do. Until someone goes even further over the top and folks start hitting "report this message".

You're kidding! You got banned?

Nope. We mods don't have that authority. I only wish we did.

Did you do something or just get caught up in an IP sweep to keep some spammers out?

Do they actually work at keeping spammers out? I have not seen evidence of an admin doing work like that for a couple of years.

Just teasing, I know it wasn't you who banned me. I was probably legitimately banned, as I was at war with that jerk who kept changing his name... Wow, can't think of any of his handles right now, but anyway, I was posting a lot of crazy pics and also posting a lot of insults that I think pissed someone off over there that had the power to make "Rick-o" go away. I did get another account going under "Rick- o Barred", but by that time I was spending more time here at the MR Forums like everyone else, so I rarely visited there after the banishment.

Me either, unfortunately. I get really pissed off when I've got 20 emails on 20 different spams.

I figured Rick got banned some time ago. I don't think they admin that forum except in rare occasions. Banning doesn't work either as people just come back under a different name and IP.

It says it is a place for civilized debate. I doubt many from this place will be going over.

Big percent started there...

We were either unilaterally booted or eventually decided that there had to be an alternative that didn't include the whims of Brian Moon.

Actually, I don't think having a political side to a technical forum is such a good idea. You can see the spill over to the other side all the time.
