Anyone have any ideas on how to get rid of the idiot screwing up the forum?
He is violating a federal law, but I have no idea who enforces it or if it is enforced.

I don't know, Stan. It seems like the last time we had a nut making a mess we all just came over here and he (she) went away. He's just a petty forum hanger-on.
One thing I suspect is that he is basking in the glory of all the attention that is given him over his obnoxious behavior.
I imagine there is some technological defeat to him, but Joe will have to find it. In the mean time we shouldn't reward him.
We need a code word to the regulars to move over here when this happens.

When I first heard about this site, I thought of it as a "special frequency" as in police communications. I always though of this as a tactical channel or "Tac 2" where private conversations are held and then we could go back to the regular channel to hear the main communications.
I don't know if it is possible, but would it be great if everyone with access here could go to the regular site and have a choice between posting messages that everyone can read or post messages that only Tac 2 people could view?
All of the Tac 2 posts would be hidden by the general readership but be visible to those in the inner circle, perhaps in red type to make it easy to differentiate which "channel" your wish to be on.
It would combine both sites into one and with the benefits of each.
Just an idea. Don't know if there is a way to do it, but IMHO it would be very handy.
Any ideas on who the "famous person" is? He was the thread poster formerly known as Anonymous. I was thinking of Criss Angel but he said he was no EA.
Sure glad the dummy stopped for the meantime. Maybe he did not like my comment about his mother wearing army boots!

"Kuffs"
O--O
Mark - that is a good idea. Any suggestions?
I am afraid I don't know how to combine the sites. That would be nice though.
As far as our "famous person", my guess is that his fame is mainly in his head.
Joe
I agree, Joe. He's a legend in his own mind, unless we (or some other forum) are feeding his...well, whatever his need is. His behavior suggests wannabe needs to me, over identifying with someone great, or so perceived to be (like Mr and Mrs Baker???).
I'm still winding down from my article so forgive me, but he reminds me of Charles Guiteau.
I have no idea why he, or a cohort, needed to drag Steve Santini into this mess, but it does look like some kind of link to his detractor. Steve and I intended to talk on the phone, but haven't made contact. I think Steve knows who it is, but isn't interested in wading in to the cesspool.
So, I guess if it gets messy again, Mark is right. Someone should just post "Tac 2" and we all go away for a few days over here until the frivolity ceases. I guess this is what this was for.
Brad
I vote for "Tac2"
Now how do we tell all the others with access to this board that is what we are doing?
Stan
Joe, do you have group mail for this list?
Otherwise I guess we all start emailing our friends.
