I regret that we're having to temporarily shut down to the public (for visitors) however; every once in awhile we encounter the odd disruptive individual (usually a guest) who doesn't leave a lot of choice. Although we can block/ban their IP, we keep this as a last resort lest we accidentally block an innocent party in the process. Our apologies for any disruption. EditIf you would like further clarification, please see the last 3 entries of the following thread... philns.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=questions&action=display&thread=7548Jackie W. |

Sorry your having problems, hopefully it will quietly go away. I had an IPS blocked once and it was aol and it ended up blocking members from about a 500 mi area around the block....needless to say I felt really bad and thankfully the person has not come back.

Thanks Colleen. It's appreciated.
It would appear that the individual has in fact "resurfaced" as another individual with another "unique" couple of posts.
I'm asking e'one who's reading this current post of mine to please ignore (do not respond or bite into)any threads started that are "intentionally controversial" in nature or "soap box" type speeches. Hopefully he or she will get bored and move along.

Something to consider Jackie. Occasionally a short note to
the offenders ISP, explaining the problem is enough to
have their account suspended.

Thanks Jackie.
Some people are very unhappy, disturbed, troublemakers or all of them. Bobbi said it perfectly, we are sick and do not need or want to fight.

How sad that people have to do this sort of thing. So sorry, Jackie.
Nasty trolls are just a part of any forum.
