Unfortunately, when you have a community like this one that has so many people with differing views of life there will be problems.

What I have gathered from reading posts and talking to a person 1-1 about this, I have come to this conclusion.

Someone got into trouble warned and then banned, for a reason the Higher muckity mucks deemed right. This person therefore proceeded to tell friends and started rumors and just created a bad mojo. These friends instead of reacting wisely chose to believe the stories and bad mojo, and put it upon themselves to try to outmaneuver(?) the people who run the show.

People who run the show tried to be civil, tried to put things to rest before they decided to do the right thing to save the rest of the community the soap opera shit. They warned, they told people who was in charge, and the people banned deemed it upon themselves to continue trying to create problems.

Summary..... person got banned for righteous reasons, tried to make a power play to save face and hurt the site....... people in charge said fuck it we don't need that shit, they got rid of it. Those banned chose not to listen to reason and for whatever purpose chose to fight.

Was there a better solution? Perhaps, but in the end we are guests here and have to maintain a form of decorum and responsibility for ourselves.

This maybe a place to think and talk and make friends but it is also a community and needs policed like any other community.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
