ILW.COM Discussion Board Issues

[Sam U. of ILW.COM]

Dear All:

This is Sam the Moderator returning to the Board after a prolonged absence. Between content alerts, private messages, and emails sent to webmaster@ilw.com, there are 408 issues sent by many board members that I must address. Please rest assured that over the coming week or two I will address the issues on my plate.

While I have obviously not read any of the 408 items yet, I spoke with a couple of members of the board who shared their concerns about the board. It seems that there are many complaints, some of them serious, that need investigation and action. Please rest assured that I will address the items you have sent to me.

If there are specific issues that you would like me to deal with that you have not already emailed/PMed/alerted us about, please do not hesitate to post them on this thread (or you can PM me if you want your correspondence kept confidential). I will be monitoring this thread while I go about cleaning up.

Thanks to all for your kind patience over the last many months when this board was un-moderated. It is not something to be repeated, that's for sure. Lets take stock of where we stand now, fix what's needs fixing, and then move ahead together.

Yours truly,
Sam

Will the process be fair? What about the proceedings? Who will be the jury pool? Are we allowed to appeal the decision? Biased or Unbiased decision? What will be disciplinary actions?

Sam, my only recommendation is to revamp the discussion board rules. I have already made a suggestion using various forums as a guide. I think that will solve many of the problems.

[SonofMichael]

The following are the main trouble makers:

IPerson
Hudson
ProudUSC
Sprintgirl
Cheryl Uzamide whatever
sonofmicheal and other variations of me (check the spelling!)


Ban them and all the problems will go away

I would like to volunteer my services and be moderator of the board.

Welcome Back Sam



Yep.. Out of control

I think Davdah has covered it in nutshell... with that Paddle.



Still waiting on that sound so that we can embed videos. that will be easier than going thru all the complaints

[Mrs. B.]

Thank you Sammy - I agree with Hudson and 4N.

How about an IP tracking system to help identify those posters who are illegal aliens to assist reporting them to ICE?
