Precision Posted May 12, 2023 Posted May 12, 2023 I think a "community ban" feature would be useful. If a large enough percentage of active posters (say 90%) vote someone off the island they get booted. This would clean up a lot of irrelevant posts that come from a few individuals. I could see it as a help to Irv as it would likely push "problem children" off the board before he needs to intervene. 1 1

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted May 13, 2023 Author Posted May 13, 2023 (edited) As a side note, it’s become clear just how mentally ill BT is. I ask all posters to use kid gloves.

This board is not here for you or me, it's for the community of posters. If the community doesn't want a poster here, collectively they should be able to ban them. I'm not in favor of banning people with different opinions, it's more about posters who are spamming and name calling on a consistent basis. Honestly, I only see 1 poster that needs to be banned but that's me. 1 1
BillsFanNC Posted May 13, 2023 Posted May 13, 2023 I would say the very best way to make it better would be to ban all commies. Except that would make me a commie too and I'd be subject to my own ban. So I'll just continue to follow my bedrock principles and say let the commies run their mouths 24/7 here. It will be great to have the receipts when their beloved movement begins eating their own in earnest. 1
