Question for Mods?????????????????

spreadbeater · Dec 1, 2004

I just recently received a call from a fellow RX poster, Scarletts VIP. He has told me that he has been banned from the RX and can no longer post. The only reason that he can think of as to why he was banned was because he made a racist remark, using the "N word". Although I do not agree with what he has to say and do not agree with using the word that he used, I do have a question. Why are other posters, such as NEWPORT and jjgold, allowed to use the word but when Scarletts VIP used it he is now banned? I do not understand and I think that this needs some explanation. Thank you.

I agree with you, but i Have one question for you........Do you buy the Hook?

I just checked the board room, and yes Scarlets vip was suspended for not only using the word, but starting a thread for the sole purpose of using it...

We simply dont need that kind of contribution around here...

If you have examples of someone else doing the same, we will address it....

Thank you

Racial remarks will not be tolerated by any poster. If you see instances where other posters are using racial remarks, feel free to email a moderator and we will handle as necessary.

Thank you for that unbiased opinion Scarlet VIP, but one of the things about being banned, it means your aliases are banned as well....

We do not appreciate the racial remarks, and especially the kind you used in our forums....

Thankyou
