Dear SN...

Red and I, will not tolerate threats and abuse delivered in private msgs...
Anyone who does that to him and me gets time out
We are not here to be abused by others.
We are here to run the forum.

Is that reasonable, do you think?

If it is abuse..... I have no issue with that.

What the boundaries are need to be clear. People should know what was tolerated before is no longer, but guys, do it in advance not ban the moment it happens if you have not stated this as policy.

Also, abuse is difficult to define. Normally someone is warned and banned on a repeat of the offence unless it is a breach of privacy.

Well he threatened me with a riot, by which time I had had enough of him and his abuse!

Also, a RIOT, really and this is abuse.

Do we all need to take Chopper's advice and "Harden the f..k up"

Oh good.
Then we are on the same page.

I have seen a lot of abuse on this forum, mainly perpetrated by 1 or 2 posters...

this isn't a political forum as much as a tribal area between 2 groups who hate each other.

Will the new admin sort out this abusive behaviour that is not becoming of educated people on such a forum?

Nova ... Arssie is banned from here (for revealing private and personal information about PA member's children who post online)....he's now over on OzPolitics posting all sorts of invented BS and pretending that he's been hard done by. He's not hard done by. He abuses trust, he abuses rules and he abuses private message confidentiality.

He might think he can claim some form of diplomatic immunity but that's because he's a fwit who is going cuckoo.

No. Trevor can answer. He made the statement. I'd love for him to state who those perpetrators are.

[Super Nova]

I am sure Red an Nom will sort things out... hopefully to bring PA together.

I will leave it there for now as any new EL needs time to settle in.

I just hope the recent actions are a knee jerk from past interactions and bad feelings.
