And yes, I do know who the anon posting is by IP. That doesn't mean I know who it really is, any more than you know who I really am by my username.

We know that, you let us know a few pages back when you told us they were regular posters. Only way to know that is if you are checking IP's, and the only reason you would let us all know is to try and quell anonymous criticism of your moderation and postings. I could give a crap if you know all my usernames, but new posters might. Do they know you are kidding around with your violent fantasies (if you even are)? If I found this forum the way it is now, I would have never posted here years ago. It changes the dynamic of this forum and deserves a discussion, periods and all...........

Thank you! :tup:  This is exactly it!!  I could give a shit if you know who I am or PMS  :rofl: (my poor husband) or anything else.  The two things that Ginger has never waivered on about this place are that nothing is censored and you can be completely anonymous.  These vague pseudo-threats are just stupid and self-serving.  Get over yourselves and quit fucking things up. ::both::

Exactly my point as well, it's very simple despite these other anon's attempt to change the subject with their nonsense.


Sounds like you guys need to start your own forum, squeaky clean enough for Mormons and leae this one to the "children" who seem to be annoying you.  Best of luck!

No, again you're missing the point.  It's not that they're vile or moronic, it's that they've recently been given moderator status and have begun to make veiled threats of 'outing' people or linking up posts.  Not for us, we (from what the other anon posted) could really care less, but it isn't conducive to an open environment for anyone new who might come along.  Is it really that hard to comprehend?

No, not at all.  If you're that annoyed and worried about being "outed", stay away from Fornits.  That should be the end of the discussion, but you're all hellbent on whining.

No!  That has been one of the things that Ginger has never, ever waivered on since Fornits' inception.  No one should be afraid to post for fear of someone 'outing' them.  If YOU don't like it, go find a forum that's moderated and requires registration.

I think i know who you're talking about.  If he's keeping an eye on program staffers posting, I don't have a problem with it.  Threatening them with exposure keeps them away.  Think of it as RAID for program vermin.

No, it's not just them.  He threatened it with me either last night or today.  I've forgotten by now.  I don't care, but as I said...it isn't conducive to an open discussion environment.  That's always been what's separated Fornits from all the others.  That's the beauty of it.  Nothing is censored and you can remain anonymous.

If that's how you see it, fine.  I see it as me trying to hold onto what Fornits has always been.

So now fornits is like struggling teens, they feel the same way about program posters over there. Hell, why not just post IPs out in the open like they do and get it over with?

In that case I agree with you.  Anonymity needs to be maintained for the real posters.  Why were you threatened, though?

That's just like...my opinion, man.  I have no control over that, so don't get so worked up.  One word, dude:  Xanax.

I guess he and TSW got their panties in a wad about something I said, so the implied threats started.  That and picking through other anon posts I made and 'linking' them up.  I don't care if people know who I am or that I'm PMSing (I'm still laughing at the two of them discussing my menstrual cycle....must have been a boring evening :rofl: ) but I DO care that they create this environment of hostility and vague threats to virtually anyone who posts here.
