"Banned on the Green Board"

Well, I'm out of this thread. We're starting to behave like smurfs

I love the description of Athana's ban. It took what? Two mods and the board owner to make a decision not to ban the Elf who contributes nothing really. Other than the numerous handles he uses. Even his 'reviews' are probably a figment of his imagination and he's probably one of the main reasons they have no advertisers. Instead they ban one of the few advertisers and identifiable posters they do have left. Good move, guys.

I'm confused... I thought that there was a general acceptance by all of the proposition that it is best for us, the consumers, that advertisers don't dictate the boards' operations...

...and yet we seem to have criticism of one board's operation because it refused to follow an advertiser's dictate that 2 members be permnamently banned or the board would lose her cash... she sought the banishment of Tony as a result of an unpleasant comment and the banishment of GG who, for Gawds sake, was no way involved in the spat.

A board banning an innocent member (GG) to keep advertising funds. Isn't that exactly what Benson is complaining about?

Keen observers, and prescient readers of sheep's entrails, will know that I am no fan of GG, but even I wouldn't have sought his banishment in the circumstances.

Shouldn't the man who lost money, and knew he would, because of his position, be praised, rather then damned?

They don't have a banned members list so we don't know who has been banned or for what reason.

Hey, pal, I'm on the list. I'd wear it as a badge of honor, if I really gave a shit.

I was banned for "stalking" Sergeant Shit-for-Brains. In fact, there was more than a shred of truth to the charge, but it's a more complicated story than their simple minds can comprehend over there. Given Sgt. SFBs fixation with me and my continuing friendship with a certain retired SP, nearly his every post contained a slur in my direction and I felt it necessary, for some silly reason (as if he's worth the effort) to monitor his words.

Imagine my surprise yesterday, when, in a rare visit to Smurfland, I learned that the poor waste of human flesh is still consumed with this bizarre jealousy. Go figure. (BTW, Sarge, we had lunch today in Westmount and she's doing quite well, thank you.)

And that's why I'm no longer welcome in their little club.

Hello everyone,

That's all folks. Let's get things back to normal around here. If anyone has any more gripes to settle with the other board, do it over there. MERB is for MERB business and I am sure that the other board will survive without our talking about them over here.

Thread closed.
