I have sent most of the political threads to the Biffo Room and that is where they are going to stay.

All threads that have been started to inflame others will either be removed or sent to the Biffo Room. Any future threads that are started to inflame others will be sent to the Biffo Room.

We, the current Moderators of XNC2 have had enough of the insulting, defamatory, nasty comments that are going on within this Board. This will no longer be tolerated from anyone. Enough is enough. XNC2 has all but been destroyed by posts that I would not expect from mature adults. We have already lost two extremely good Moderators and those of us remaining are perilously close to walking out. We have all been extremely reasonable and allowed freedom of speech, however what has and is happening will no longer be tolerated.

There have been numerous reported posts over the last week. The Moderators and Global Moderators have looked into all of them as well as wasting a considerable amount of time (time we won't get back) trolling through pages of posts. Quite frankly, we are disgusted and disappointed in what we have read. We have been letting it slide for quite some time in the hope that this nonsense would die a natural death or that those responsible would simply get bored with the novelty (?) of rarking each other up.

Not any more. You have been warned.

KTJ and Reality - all of the recent (numerous) reported posts involve the pair of you. Many of these reports have been from Reality, but there have also been a number of reports from other Members who are sick of the spamming. Unless you pull your heads in immediately, you will BOTH find yourselves sent to the Biffo Room or banned completely.

This is not up for discussion. Do not make me any angrier than I already am.

Good
You will see my recent post on the other thread
I am happy with that...no problem...I would only ask for consistancy in standards and penalties...for all.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Does this mean we are not allowed to discuss and take a view on politics Roll Eyes

There is nothing wrong with discussing politics. What is objectionable is the spamming that has/is currently going on where you and KTJ start threads with the express purpose of inflaming the other. Do not deny it - I did not come down in the last shower. We also do not need multiple threads started praising or dissing individual politicians or political parties. That is not debating issues. Everyone has an opinion. Insults and accusing other posters of lying is not debate - neither is name calling.

The rest of us (Mods and Members) have an expectation that this Board and its Members are treated with respect.

ali..."accusing other posters of lying is not debate "

...so are you saying that if I believe another person is lying....that I should not accuse them of lying?

...do you mean that I should report to the moderator if I believe they are lying?

Reality - I am not going to debate this.

Like other Mods, I went through numerous posts where you have spammed your accusations of lying. That is your opinion. As I have stated, BOTH of you are guilty of inflammatory and spamming posts. Quit while you are ahead.

I have asked that we move forward and move forward we will.

Why would you want to report someone is lying Reality? They post their opinions - you post your opinions. I removed approximately 10 of your spamming posts accusing KTJ of lying. It was your opinion that he was lying.

If KTJ upsets you by (in your opinion) telling fibs - then ignore him. I would suggest that you simply ignore his threads, ignore his posts and do yourself a favour by doing so. It would be less stressful.

There we are Reality - you have me engaging with you, something I had no intention of doing.

Now for goodness sake - let it rest.

Move forward or move on.

ali..."Why would you want to report someone is lying Reality?"

..because you said..."Insults and accusing other posters of lying is not debate"

No worries...I  have this problem about people posting incorrect information (both on purpose or through ignorance)...guess its just a principle thing....I guess the more diplomatic or pc way is to inform them that they are incorrect Wink

...thanks for your guidance..much appreciated

Well done. 

I have been thoroughly sick of the reality/ktj on going brougha and have been reluctant to visit because of this.

Hopefully this will bring xnc back to the news aspect it originally had where lots of outsiders visited because our members regularly posted on the spot news often before the mainstream Media.

I notice that Reality is still arguing the point...personally I think he wants to wreck the site. I have seen this type of tactics on several sites and the only solution thet I have seen is to boot them permanently and when they turn up with another name boot them straight away often their source comps can be logged and blocked.

FYI, reality:
 
Social networking spam is spam directed specifically at users of internet social networking services such as Google+, Facebook, Pinterest, LinkedIn, or MySpace. Experts estimate that as many as 40% of social network accounts are used for spam.[6] These spammers can utilize the social network's search tools to target certain demographic segments, or use common fan pages or groups to send notes from fraudulent accounts. Such notes may include embedded links to pornographic or other product sites designed to sell something. In response to this, many social networks have included a "report spam/abuse" button or address to contact.[10] Spammers, however, frequently change their address from one throw-away account to another, and are thus hard to track.[11]
