Minnow's banishment

vandenberg - 12-12-2007 at 02:17 PM

Should we be advised of the reasons he got banished and the offending posts accescible to us ?

bajajudy - 12-12-2007 at 02:17 PM

NO

Paulina - 12-12-2007 at 02:21 PM

No

Barry A. - 12-12-2007 at 02:28 PM

No--------not necessary, and not required---------WE don't own this forum, and really have only those "rights" allowed by the Moderators------------

If we don't like that, then we can leave. But I for one think that the Post by Natelie Anne covers any questions I had, and I DO trust the Moderators, even tho Trust is not the issue here.

It may be that the posts referred to were deleted as they came in, and that is why we never saw them?

And the case for Libel has been made-------------I think we should let it play out, by the "players", and get on with sharing knowledge and thoughts about BAJA.

It doesn't help to see the offending items repeated and who wants to see the ensuing arguments about yes, he should have or no, he shouldn't have said/written those things.

Bottom line: I trust the moderators to make wise decisions in this area.

That guy Minnow is a @#$%%^&*. He deserves his -+<>?!@#$ banishment!
Ha, ha only %$^&*$# kidding! Minnow is usually one funny @#$*($%^.
And if the moderator doesn't like it he can kiss my ***!

P.S. Please don't ban me!

I will not voice an opinion on Minnow...I will say this...I know Doug plays as fair as he can, after all the more people who post here the better for the board and members...but be assured it does not matter what any of us think...period. This is his private board and he must do what He feel is right without any of your opinions...

Bruce R Leech - 12-12-2007 at 03:44 PM

Doug is the Man and he dose a good job, but some times a moderator or some one can pull the old wool over the eyes.

Bob and Susan - 12-12-2007 at 04:02 PM

If the posts are supposidly so offensive, why are they sending them to every body.

and

How many people have been U2U'ed with these posts that no one ever saw?

Sharksbaja - 12-12-2007 at 04:08 PM

Is there an echo in here?

losfrailes - 12-12-2007 at 04:10 PM

Well Bruce, you are surely adding to your post count, and that is the only thing you are adding.

Don't you get the point, the moderators can ban you if they choose. And I have not seen anyone banned for no reason.

This is the second time around for this person, the ME NO banned earlier is the same person.

Where there is smoke there generally is some kinda fire!

Bob and Susan - 12-12-2007 at 04:11 PM

im still waiting for minnow to tell us what he actually said:yes:

you have missed the point altogether, but it is complicated so that is understandable.:lol:

losfrailes - 12-12-2007 at 04:18 PM

Well, not only are you defending the person, now you are emulating him.

Better check that out in your dictionary, its got more than 4 letters!

We only trash thrash the ones we love.

minnow (small or insignificant) Guy / gal sure nailed his/her screen name. He's a right-wing ass, but I'll miss his ridiculous take on all (always good for a chuckle)
RIP %$#&wad!!!:coolup:

ELINVESTIG8R - 12-12-2007 at 04:53 PM

Doug, will you allow Minnow to return if he writes an apology in the open forum for his misdeeds to the offended parties and promises to never do it again?

SiReNiTa - 12-12-2007 at 04:54 PM

hey, guys, I think that Doug knew exactly what he was doing, i really doubt that he would do something like ban someone without a reason...I for one want to thank him for taking care of this board like he does...i mean...we (and i say we because i know that more than one person here agrees) have found great friends, amazing adventures, fascinating pictures and really darn cool stories here...and I for one think Doug has done a really good job of keeping the site clean, he has his reasons for what he does...I like minnow, and i also like natalie, in fact i like everyone on the board...but if in fact those insults were posted then thank you doug for dealing with them as soon as possible...he is the owner he has the last word...

Sharksbaja - 12-12-2007 at 05:02 PM

Little mermaid please know Hose A and Doug handled this matter. Give him some accolades if you must.

edit: for new info

WOW........Just got back from the states to see that the bottom has fallen out. I hope after the dust settles, the issue can be addressed. I think there's a lot of Minnow worth saving.
