It kind of feels like a really painful hemorrhoid just went away.
I like it.
He was also most likely the "second smurf" that appeared on the board. As for the this last one, today . . . I have a sinking feeling that other people who read this section of ECCIE whom have caused issues in other cities may "take advantage" of the problem(s) here in Nebraska and the "smurf" may live on, in perpetuity, as others may now simply create and use any "smurf" type name to instigate a general disturbance at will.

One thing that is unfortunate, is that I am certain that at some point in the future, someone will inadvertently use the name "smurf" or a reference to a character from the series when registering (most likely a new lady) and suffer the slings and arrows of many here or possibly even be banned out of an abundance of caution, and such member will be innocent of any wrongdoing, and most likely they won't return.

I hope that others can do the same and show more patience while turning a blind eye and waiting for action from the board staff. Maybe we can all follow Elena's lead and simply say, "It looks like someone needs a hug", if we need say anything at all. Kisses, - Jackie Originally Posted by jackie@sintropolis
I think we should all read this part of your message at least once a month, so we don't forget. I know it is pretty easy to react to rudeness by being rude, but it certainly doesn't help or improve the situation. I know from personal experience unfortunately.
Being rude in the face of rudeness only adds more rudeness to the world. There are many posts here that if they were made under any other circumstance, would (and should) be actionable by moderation. We all, in the public posts we make (especially we Escorts and providers), should be careful to be aware that legions of lurkers read all of our posts.
