Spam/Nuisance Posts
Mon, 7 July 2008, 12:26 pmThis is an open post to the administrator of the site.
This site used to be a valuable tool for those of us in the theatre community to find useful information
and share our thoughts with others.
Of late, it has become a bitchfest.
I would like to see posts retricted to signed up and verified members only.
While this wouldn't stop completely the post hijacking that is currently destroying this site,
it would mean that you would need to take the time to sign up a membership, which could subsequently
be revoked if site rules are abused.
Obviously this is not a panacea, but I think will help this site grow.
I'm fed up with the crap!

A couple of thoughts.....I
Sat, 12 July 2008, 11:34 amA couple of thoughts.....
I don't recall ever seeing a "nuisance" post by a logged in member.....they all seem to be by walter.
If there are hard and fast forum rules to abide by, and the site administrators reserve the right to remove posts that in their view breach the rules, how does that leave you open to litigation?
I'm not suggesting posts be removed on a whim Grant, but only if they are judged to breach a set of forum rules. I'm a member of another site, which is quite willing to remove posts that breach their forum rules.
OK, I'm not a lawyer, but using common (or uncommon, as it seems to be these days) sense, I can't see a problem.
Anyway.....how can a Walter poster sue, as the post is anonymous?????
