This cannot stand


Doug, have you seen the accusations from Joe in the Fox news thread? He is accusing people of wishing death to the people in Somalia who have contracted Cholera. Are you really just going to let this go? I know I can't.

I hope you will take some sort of action.

Hard to believe their are extreme and inflamatory views on an OFF TOPIC Fox News thread. Just say no "NO to OT" :)

Seriously, if anyone goes to OT, then they have to be aware it is there just for that extreme stupid type of exchanges... or a cat box (as Doug calls it)... to let off some steam, instead of venting on the Baja forums.

So sorry, Roberto. Your plea is like, "No turds in the toilet."

Nope, I disagree with all of you. Even in OT there should be some boundaries. Another recent example was calling someone else a hoar. I'd that mom too? Being accused of wishing death on others is past any conceivable line. Even if Doug does not take action, I am going to take a serious look into what to do.

Yep, I agree, let it be. Free speech. Unless it's a direct threat to a specific individual, you shouldn't mess with it.

Besides, if you did, the hacker group Anonymous would be on this website and shut it down.

You've been a Nomad for almost a decade. We've all noted the decline in civility- we just don't want to be big bad censors.

Grow up, and stop taking yourself so seriously.
If the authorities are going to allow MrBill, Oddjob (Baja1943) et al's sick continual references to alternative lifestyles & pedophilia in Off-Topic, what the hell makes you think anything else isn't open!!?
sheeez

Apparently, it's all open and the rules published here mean next to nothing; it would be more honest and consistent to eliminate them entirely.

I personally believe the uncivil environment on this site has driven away a number of the more positive contributors. It's turned into a sewer with occasional good stuff floating in the muck... but digging through it is.... :(


Just to clarify ... I was referring to OFF-Topic only!
