Classic Clint Eastwood is classic. I havent seen that in a long time. You made me smile. eli Wallich's eyes... the best.
Yes E.. those were the days. it was every friday night wasnt it. lol
I left before you, but I remember coming back and you were not here.. and realized that I actually missed you Solaris.. Now everytime I spin or Dance to the Techno sparta I think of you and laugh so hard.
yes this is an immigration forum. and yes some people have used it as a personal blog center, music paintings etc... there are currently rules that permit such. the same as the current rules permit posting of news articles, such as the ones that manali makes a link to. WAR IS UGLY, granted ALL deaths and horrors related to war are. Again i am reminding that we cannot lose site of freedom of speech or expression. This is not a communist society.
The rules on the forum will have to be changed in order to enforce some people's threads or posts. But be careful and make sure that somewhere down the road that they will not infringe/ affect your own posts someday.
THE BANNED THING.. jake, the message sailed above you again , you missed the point of that message. and BTW.. it is not just on occasion that I advise here,... I always give good advice, it is the ONLY reason that I come here.
4Now, Yes there is Mike2007's World News Thread, altho I do not go there much, I have yet to see something that even resembles what Manali posts.
BTW, I do like most of the songs, pictures and video etc., that E and others post and do not have a problem with them, infact I think it lightens up the forum sometimes.
As for you giving good advise, I dont know if you give good advise ALL THE TIME, as I can only give my own experiences on immigration and do not understand all about the immigration laws.

What up marm... Welcome back to the asylum.
The future of what ILW is coming to...Control of Speech. 4NOw will not be a part of or influenced by lynch mob thinking to ban people. Who would have thunk huh. lol
Yea marm.. Im sure its coming soon.. The ban 44now..search and destroy 4 dissenting opinions.
Maybe some people around here are feeling lucky and are looking 4trouble. If you are looking for trouble.. then you came to the right place 4now.
Sam you are something, aren't ya? That's a great tactic to not ever haveta ban anyone, if ya disappear for weeks on end. Yep, this forum is greatly moderated. As usual.
Second thing, this forum is OUT DATED, out of date, out of order almost. I can set up a forum on my host in two minutes and it will have tons of features. You have to update it to something better. If you want to use bold or url with a link, it's a PITA. Bold text goes right to the bottom of the post and you basically have to copy and paste text twice. I'm too lazy to write my own [ B ]. Also you might be really lucky having missed the html tags that were in between [...] and the modern code. It's like going from Commodore straight to MacBook Air.
That's that.
I am a proud heart-bleeding tree-hugging latte-sipping urban-dwelling elitist progressive liberal.
Firstly, Kollerkrot, please do NOT use the "F" word. I have to enforce the rules. Provocation is not an excuse. Due to the passage of time, this may not matter, but I have to give you a first warning (for March) under our current rules for your post of , 01:47PM on the thread above.
Am I correct on the herebelow: (1) manali's posts appear to be almost exclusively connected with deaths of Americans, especially American soldiers (2) manali appears to think that such deaths are causes of celebration (3) manali appears to think that Allah wishes ill on Americans (4) members of this community strongly disapprove of manali's point of view (5) consequent to all the above, members of this community want to ban manali from this community
Can folks please post on this thread, and help me understand if I am reading the situation correctly. Once I know that I have the facts in hand, I will move on to evaluating the situation and possible action. Thanks in advance.
Sam, Yes From Me There is a wonderful diversity of people on ILW, Many Views, Ideas, beliefs, Races, Cultures. And all disagree with someone else Here at one time or Another. Even Appear to single out Sometimes, within certain beliefs and cultures. "Some I strongly Disaggree with Here, As Do Some Strongly Disagree with Me. However Our Differences I Would Not Want Any of these people Banned. "Thats Why we Have Ignore feature" If It Becomes too much for some.
Even The Illegal immigrants and there questions here "No one Knows for Sure Who They Are" But is freedom of speech.
However If a Vote Was taken On manali's post. I think 100% would remove this sort of thing. My belief is it does have terrorist quality's and intentions. "celebration of Death to others" Does Not Belong ANYWHERE!!! Just How I feel about it. I Hope others will also make their veiws known here.

At first glance what maneli posted comes across as anit-American. However, taking into account what 4now stated concerning reaction here to bombings in Iraq the argument could be made its the same thoughts directed back at us.
None of his/her postings can be attributed to an immigration issue. The conclusion is they are meant as a polical protest. The question becomes should protests be permitted? This assumes the anti-war intent of the postings.
Vote Republican and this country will still be worth sneaking into.

@Sam: you should never ever roll DOWN your sleeves...and you should come in more frequently..indeed, you should change some policies since freedom of speech is not the same as hurting others..... Thank you for being here, have a nice week!

Also, as a running list of where we stand so far. One Warning for March Fredy Kollerkot dcwtech 4now someone12
One Warning for April someone12 Mike_2007
One Warning for May sprint_girl07 WhiteUSCNeedsHelp
Furthermore, please rest assured that I will address all the points brought up by everyone to my attention. I am well aware that there were things pending on my plate as of early March, that still remain to be addressed. One thing at a time.
@Sam: CM is completely right...I left the board because of those poeple...they are ruining the forum and I believe that sprint and mike only violated your policies because they lost their temper due to those people....please have that in mind when punishing..or come in more frequently and warn them, so that normal people wouldn't lose their temper....thanks...
