MsTerry
05-26-2009, 10:55 AM
I have finally taken the action that many of you have requested; I am banning "MsTerry (https://www.waccobb.net/forums/members/msterry.html)".
This has been a difficult decision since many of his posts are fine.
Sounds like a wet fart to me (Cartoon / Comedy: Download Fart sound effects (https://www.sound-effect.com/cat/fart-191/))
(he's a man)I was under the impression that Aliens abducted me and did a medical exam, but now I know, It was you who pulled my pants down!
However, there has been a consistent pattern of obnoxious, taunting, mean, "in your face" posts that clearly seek to get a reaction, preferably defensive, at all costs. Does that mean I am banned for telling the truth?

This whole round of blaming was started because someone made an emotional appeal to donate money and support because her husband was arrested (she called it kidnapped) after staying here (illegally) and being incarcerated (it was called inhumane treatment).
Clearly this person was trying to provoke an emotional response with her word choice. Does that make her a troll too?
True to the nature of WaccoBB.net, he is more conscious and witty than your garden variety troll, using his considerable skill to twist things in order to deliver his stinging payload, while being witty or in some way "defensible". He has pissed off countless users and derailed many worthy conversations.<table border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td class="alt2" style="border: 1px inset ;"><sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-IUKB_def_1-0"></sup> </td></tr></tbody></table>
OK, so you are taking away the one person you can blame everything on.
Are we all going to be happy now?
Besides the particular user who he succeeds in making upset, there are all the readers that are also affected. Yes, there is the option to ignore (https://www.waccobb.net/forums/waccobb-net-faq/19804-how-can-i-ignore-posts-user-how-can-i-notified-when-certain-user-posts.html) his posts, but that is beyond the ability of many users, and new or infrequent users will have no idea who this "woman" is. I LOVE IT BARRY! :thumbsup:
It is nice to know that you have so much contempt for your customers that you feel they don't have the ability to ignore a post!
LMAO
Beyond that, and most importantly, it undermines the sense of safety, compassion and respect which is what I want to engender within this conscious community. Without this sense of safety, users leave or choose not to join, or are less transparent and trusting because of the harshness that is tolerated here. I will be moderating more closely in the future to restore this sense of safety and respect.Neither compassion nor consciousness, respect or safety mention anything about banning someone.
In light of the fact that MsTerry does have some redeeming value, I am going to let him continue to post to the Censored and Uncensored category (https://www.waccobb.net/forums/censored-un-censored/).Some redeeming value!?!?!?
What a way to talk up a person!!!
That way, unsuspecting readers and posters in the other categories will not have to deal with him, while he can still post and others can read and interact with the knowledge that they do so at their own risk.What a nice Jewish solution to a problem. The same way Israeli's treat Palestinians.
You put them in a box, they can't get out, can't move freely and then you tell people what a great Mensch you are, since you you didn't kill them. They can still talk right?
Except, that now, you have prevented them from interacting directly.
The Censored and Uncensored category (https://www.waccobb.net/forums/censored-un-censored/) is not included in our Daily Digest by default, but it's easy to add (see how (https://www.waccobb.net/forums/waccobb-net-faq/394-how-select-categories-emails-daily-digest.html)). You can also subscribe to get individual emails of his post by marking him as your "Buddy" (see how (https://www.waccobb.net/forums/waccobb-net-faq/19804-how-can-i-ignore-posts-user.html#post27330)).See, what a Mensch that Barry!
He's even trying to get me Buddys in prison!!
And to MsTerry, I hope you will be honorable and respect this decision and not try to create alternate aliases.I guess it was at this point that your wet fart started to drip down your legs from all that squeezing.
HONORABLE, BARRY???
You dare using the word HONORABLE?
You hack into our computer, threaten to get me deported and now you want RESPECT?
