Funny, because you haven't clicked on the complaint link on any of his posts even one time. If you can't be bothered to notify the mods of the EXACT POST(S) that need to be cleaned up, then how do you think they are going to be taken care of? Generic messages in this forum like "Thread trashed" mean nothing. Click on the complain link of posts that need to be handled, and they will be dealt with shortly.
Seriously? This is what it comes down to? I've used the complain link maybe 2 times in my years here....
Ok, fine, your approach is to blame the contributors for not flagging problems on your website? I can handle that.
However, here's the next set of problems. Talon has had posts removed by moderators. Good posts that are lost. I've had posts removed. It seems like your approach towards moderating is hit-n-miss. The idiots have just as much power as the normal people. Case in point, you have several multiple IP/Alias posters that dominate the content.
In the last three hours I have recieved
over a dozen emails from ET by way a poster named BoWoII, and yes he's on my ignore list. He's posting the same crap over and over again. If its not him, its "sisboom" or whatever reincarnation of that ID. This is the major problem. I stopped complaining when I realized its the same jerk everytime.
Look, I post under the same handle in wilmott, and a few other sites. Those sites, while perhaps not as popular as ET, do not have this type of dynamic where 10% content is surrounded by 90% junk. The thread in question was 90% content and that was rare. The mod's deleted good posts by talon and could not control a simple multi-alias problem. Granted, that multiple alias issue has been plaguing this site for years. Since you seem to be making little effort to address this via a terms of serivce change such as charging via pay pal, or some other method, I've lost the inclination to post anything worthwhile here as it will often fall into a void of incessant multi-alias garbage.
Sorting garbage becomes a bit of pain after a while, especaially when its the same garbage...
Again, rather than blame us for not using the complain button, make an effort to address the heart of the issue.
