Howdie ED

What with all the recent unexplained Bannings, I've had a thought. Please shoot me if it isn't original, but why not have our own peoples court ? Where AB members can be judge jury and executioner over our fellow ABers

With a few thought out ground rules I'm sure we can responsibly decide who we will and will not tolerate for ourselves. In the least it would give rise to some good debates CHEERS

If you are upset or offended by a particular question or answer, just use the "Report this question" facility. The more people report it, the quicker it will be drawn to the attention of ABed who is the moderator of this site.

Surely this is what you are asking for.

How about we tar and feather them and make them walk the streets ringing a little bell shouting " I am a sinner"?

No? too harsh? oh well ;-)

[netibiza]

Yeah let's hang 'em high, or pelt them in the stocks!!!

[B00]

I've just had a great idea Neti...we can pelt em with the bran tub's leftovers!!!

Hi

Thank you for the suggestion. The goal of the Reporting function is to act as a type of "people's court". Users ultimately decide what content they want to remain on the site by reporting posts that they feel are offensive or in another way, infringe upon the Site Rules.

The AB Editor does not review every post, only the posts that are reported. When I, as moderator/editor, see the post, it has already in theory been judged by fellow users.

Yeah but i'm willing to bet you like the stocks and tarring & feathering idea Ed ;-)

[AB Editor]

B00, as an American I think I should distance myself from even the slightest reference to torture....ahem!

[AB Editor]

.....that poor misguided big haired guy....

[loudickson71]

heh. No problem, Ed. Just put em in a plane, refuel in the UK, and we'll forward them to Hardtopronounzistan, where they can be tortured by being forcefed goulash and made to interact in bars with smelly locals.

No wait...am I getting confused with UK budget holidays?

[AB Editor]

lol Lou. Ever wondered where those banned users ended up? ;)

[netibiza]

Oh you have made me laugh today - now where's me whip???

[netibiza]

.............and after all a bit of torture never hurt anyone.
