Blocking senders

Oh, and just to make it clear not that it matters I have no intentions
of participating in any moderated forum anyhow. Always been against
any regulation of what I feel like saying or my beliefs and Nazi's
went out in 1945.......I'll be damed if some one is gonna tell me what
I can or can not say and to who I can not say what I want! Just ain;t
gonna happen.....But its not my loss then either is it............

Early on, before we even got around to the first draft of the RFD, the
subject of "blacklisting" or blocking posters based on IP number, nym, or
any of a number of different criteria. The suggestion was met with a
resounding "NO." Even if someone were to hold hostage and threaten to kill
a cute kitten unless we "blacklisted" someone, we still wouldn't block a
poster. We aren't even looking at ways to do it, so we may not even be
able to do it even if we wanted to. If a post is civil and about ponds,
there is little doubt that it would be approved, no matter who submitted
it. Let me make it perfectly clear, we will allow anyone to post no matter
how many cute kittens someone threatens to kill. There are NO plans to
moderate RPM on anything other than content. Of course, if someone
threatens cute bunnies we may have to rethink that...
