Absolutely ....boy them fellows on the dark side were so quick to jump on the bandwagon when a lefty ghost appears, yet now they sit back and say nothing. Those of you who did and are quiet now expose your true hypocrisy.

Honestly, the way this forum is "moderated" is comical. Either you have rules, or you don't. Either there is a policy, or there isn't. I appreciate that Wil took time from his wars in the RR to temporarily intervene here, but can we at least get the online calendar updated as to when the forum is moderated, and when it's a free for all?
Folks like Joe C and Rightside would have been better served to just fire up a ghost and lash out. The ghost would get suspended, and they could post a "WTF" when exposed like the chickenshit of this thread
Well as long as it's appreciated, that was my big concern.
When the forum is asked to vote on whether or not posters should be banned, I'd prefer a policy of "no ghosting" be little more than just a hopeful suggestion by the contest managers.
I agree.....post review should be for the person....not only one of their ID's. Otherwise it is useless. Every time one of his ID's gets put on postreview he can just create another ID. Though that isn't even necessary because he has other ID's not on post review not. Why bother with post review for a ghost anyhow? Why not just ban the ghosts at least?

Had I seen the post in question before Wil, I would likely have only dumped it to the ongoing RR thread. I'm sure that will get more guffaws, but a simple name-call every few months isn't a huge deal to me. If it were, half this forum would be banned, including me.
I'm not interested in a heavy-handed moderation of this forum. Period.
And no matter how you slice it, this is not the same as banning Bush Lover at all. Had Doc created ghosts while he was allowed to post, fun would have been had exposing them, but that's all. Doc himself would not have been banned for ghosting. (Nor was he banned, I might add, for ghosting while suspended. His suspension wasn't even extended.)
I will dump ghosts when I find them, but I'm not going to ban every poster who ghosts. Not enough hours in the day to double-check the IPs of every poster in here, many of whom have IPs numbering well over 30.

You liberal monkeys are the biggest whiners -- bar none. I've had every "personal insult" lobbed my way (ktv, the class act he is, recently paid me the compliment of "fucking asshole") and simply accepted it for what it is. Sometimes I fire back or sometimes I just let it roll off my back, because well, unlike most lefties in here, I actually do have a life. I'm amazed at the number of dependent children feeling the need to go crying to Mommy or Daddy because they can't fight their own battles. As I have been saying from the beginning, we don't need a mod in here.
I think it's fair to state this mindset we're seeing on display here is why so many of you find the concept of the nanny-state intoxicating and fallaciously necessary.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Johnny isn't playing fair! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
