The Observation Deck

I get it, everything is your/moderators discretion. This includes profanity, bumps, harassment, bullying, etc.

Enough discussion on this, nothing will change as we all can see. Someone just slipped in the word "pissed" into a post and nothing was done - see, nothing changes. Your discretion, I get it.

Corey

I went back and looked, no one has registered a complaint on profanity, bumps(? really), harassment, or bullying.

NO ONE, not even you, EVER.

Are you telling me, that you want me to take actions on my own? I get total discretion. You would support that every time?

Corey, you can't have it both ways.

As I have said, time and time again, read the rules you agreed too, read the new rules we are considering/trying.

The rule the Deck has been under since day one.
Doing so may lead to you being immediately and permanently banned, with notification of your Internet Service Provider if deemed required by us.

You agree that “The Observation Deck” have the right to remove, edit, move or close any topic at any time should we see fit.

Potential New Rules

By registering at the Lakewood Observer Message Boards, users agree that any post deemed inappropriate may be removed at the sole discretion of the Lakewood Observer. Lakewood Observer also has the right, at its sole discretion, to revoke board privileges at any time without notice or reason.


Flaming, Bashing, Trolling, and Spam
Determination of flaming, trolling, and spam posts will be made at the discretion of mods.

Hacking, Scripting, and Altering Board Code
Accessing or using someone else's account is strictly prohibited. Hmmm. These actions are grounds for an immediate and permanent ban. Hmmm.

Bans
We only will discuss the nature, reason, and length of a ban with the user banned.

Questionable Content
Since we can't have a rule to cover everything, this is the rule to, well, cover everything.

These issues are left to the discretion of individual moderators, but may include any material that is knowingly false and/or defamatory, misleading, spammy, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, sexist, obscene, racist, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, that otherwise violates any law, or that encourages conduct constituting a criminal offense.

There are hundreds of of posts each day on the Lakewood Observer message boards, so we can't always promise you'll receive a warning every time action has to be taken. By registering at the Lakewood Observer Message Boards, users agree that any post deemed inappropriate may be removed at the sole discretion of Lakewood Observer.

This is truly heart-rending. Here's the difference.

You are talking about various aspects of being a victim, and/or purposely blowing up threads with which you and your team disagree. You can't seem to get unstuck from doing so, or it is indeed your purpose.

Most others on The Deck are talking about and sharing pictures of clouds, fauna, and nature. Most others are talking about community issues like trash, politics, hospitals, schools and high schools, athletics, city services, city hall, people in the city, businesses, roads and traffic, restaurants and food, weather, the performing arts, music, history, trees, parks, signs, homes, events...shared experiences. These are things of interest, often vital to the community of Lakewood. I have frequently referred to this as content.

I honestly don't think you'll get the distinction.

Hmm...this interested you enough to post.
Move along.

Enough already, move along and talk about your picture of clouds with fauna on the trees over a pile of trash near the hospital and down the street from a school athletic field that is being poorly serviced by the city services of City Hall while your business is suffering due to bad roads and traffic because of bad weather...because from I can tell, you lack content by your own definition. Check your posts again. Every. Single. One. Of. Them. While you are at it, check to see who is calling themselves victims time and time again. Then check again to see if those same people are trying to halt the freedom of speech. Then check again to see who is blowing up threads, or even more unoriginal - bumping and then bumping and then bumping again. I believe that is stuck in a rut by sheer repetition alone.

I have no purpose, what is yours? Please do tell, because apparently you have one in all of your mundane posts about nothing - you're like Seinfeld of Lakewood.

Move along.

I honestly don't think you'll get the distinction. << So, this is confirmed.
But by all means make sure you get the last word.

Why don't you grow some cojones, Corey, and tell whoever is pulling your strings to get a pair of their own?

Brian Essi wrote:Irony

The evidence establishes that this thread was started due to conduct by two people.

It had been perpetuated by one of those two people while that same person continues to suggest that the thread should end ...yet that same person cannot let anyone else have the last word to end the thread.

Truly ironic.

Contriving a reason, and then insisting on having the #lastword is amongst the behaviors to which you appear to be blind. Enough already.
