Subject: NJNP is jumping the gun a bit. My board IS moderated, and I've asked the posters if they prefer a password system or moderated status. I'm tired of the lunatics, assholes and morons that drop by, and letting every post stay up, no matter how insulting or stupid, is NOT an option on my board. If the idiots can't police themselves, I'll have to.

NO JUSTICE! NO PEACE!

And NJNP's IS up on my board, as it's legitimate discussion. PJE's recent posts are up also, though I wish he'd held off calling a poster an idiot just because PJE disagreed with him. -- GMG, 11:39:39 06/21/01 Thu

I do think it is funny that I have been called out numerous times on that board - called everything under the sun and yes I get called to the carpet about saying someone is an idiot. -- Pablo, 15:10:44 06/21/01 Thu

Imagine the hypocrisy. Gary Griffin has never attacked another in all of his life. Thanks for the tip Gary Griffin, and thanks for letting us all know your real name. -- Miss Manners, 21:19:23 06/21/01 Thu
