I feel like this is the most bipartisan statement I've seen in a long time. Originally Posted by Missy Mariposa

all the site really did was remove ad's and not allow the girls to create ad's going forward. not much else changed other than no iso posts.
no ad's prevents underage or trafficked women. does not prevent other issues since reviews are still allowed.
you could argue reviews were the primary purpose of aspd before and eccie now. the ad's were always a potential liability.
one of the other founders still has a handle on the board. hasn't posted in a few months. whether he's still an owner i can't say. all i know for certain is St. Chris walked away due to the risks after backpage got charged. Originally Posted by The_Waco_Kid
it was that way before the site revamped due to all those new laws. it was the Wild Wild West. minus a few nuclear topics you could insult anyone. and we did.If you say so
the new laws didn't really have anything to do with it, it was decided shortly after the site came back online that the political forum would be brought inline with the rest of the site.
bullshit. no one intervened to overturn bam's ban. people who have access to the spider hole know mostly what happened. his ban was reversed by the staff. Originally Posted by The_Waco_Kid
I don't agree with this at all. The forum would be completely in the sewer with this idea.We'll have to agree to disagree. I don't even like seeing an ignorant fool like Bambino get banned. If I don't want to read his or other people's stupid shit, nobody is forcing me to do so. If I think they are idiots, I simply put them on ignore and skip over their posts. I don't want them banned though.
Bambino should have been banned a long time ago for what he continually posted. Actually he was banned about 2 months ago, only for other members to come to his assistance and get him unbanned.
bbkid recently returned from a ban that was well deserved.
Winn dixie is serving a ban that is well deserved.
Strokey is still frozen and justifiably so for what he posted. Originally Posted by VitaMan

unless bambino openly posted he rtm'd you then you don't know for certain he did. the mods aren't going to tell you who if anyone rtm'd a post for obvious reasons. the feature is supposed to be anonymous to other users.
this forum at the moment has no dedicated mod unless we're all dumb enough to think Wakeup is still "on the job". so no one is checking regularly on the forum. clearly some mod or admin does check but it's irregular.
one of the reasons CryptKicker quit is he posted that the admin's were telling him he wasn't giving out enough infractions. yeah not enough. didn't know that being a mod was like being a traffic cop where your Sargent gets on yer ass for not writing enough traffic tickets.
while i'm at it the mod squad has always been uneven on how they judge certain things. some things are clear and any mod would issue an infraction but you mentioned the child pic. i once got pointed 10 for a cartoon image with a kid in it too.
let's back up a bit and mention the rule on that does NOT ban all images of children on the site. says so here ..
#10 - Topics regarding children, and certain images depicting children are not material for an adult-themed board. You must be at least 18 years of age to register and participate here, and along those lines, our subject matter is to surround individuals of the proper age range. Any mention or reference to underage sex is strictly forbidden and may result in loss of your posting privileges.
does not say no images at all. yet some mods claim that's the "rule" no images at all. the rule is supposed to be subjective. clearly to prevent anything of a sexually suggestive nature.
for that matter the site shouldn't allow threads about the school shootings, any of them because the victims were children. you could argue it's a news event and apparently the site allows discussion because its a news event. but by the rule above it shouldn't be allowed.

This underscores the idea that rules are haphazardly enforced and adhered to. The Individual who gave me the warning was clear that Bambino had rtm'd.

Your posts are nothing more than your personal conflicts with Trump which makes you weak. Nobody really gives a shit what Trump says.For some reason you think we should know, that's pathetic.

Not that I needed to be told. He stalks me still, even as I have him on ''ignore'' for 2 years. Put him on ignore after he badgered the fuck out of me, trying to insist I don't play, and no nothing about Golf, of all things. Childish as Hell, LOL Originally Posted by Chung Tran
