That's all very interesting, your personal views of toorabouts vs. getting people kicked off. My experience of one was so straightforward and problem-free, I have a different view of that mechanism. And there is something I don't like about getting other people kicked off; I personally have never asked that anyone be kicked off, including my toorabout partner, including CH. They each have friends who enjoy posting with them and I have this kind soft spot in my heart for the First Amendment and all, it just rubs me the wrong way to shut someone up entirely because they are, for example, making up harassing, improper lies about one person or another in violation of the TOU.

I'm so tempted to post examples of violations of the TOU I know to have been reported by others and to have been ignored by SI Jeff, but I guess we all know them, and I have too much work to do.

And...does lawsuit ring a bell?

In 1997 I was suspended for several days for calling a fellow poster "petty." It was a violation of the TOU, according to SI Jill.

The TOU now are the equivalent of change behind the sofa cushions in I Remember Mama. There's would be a bit of money there, but it's not a bank account.
