In the past couple days there has been a huge surge in the number of abusive posts.
In some cases the abusive poster has imitated the user name of other forum members.
These kinds of abuses will not be tolerated.
As usual, it seems that the abuse is being perpetrated by just one or two people.
I have just banned about 15 IP addresses that have been making abusive/fraudulent posts, but I fear there will be more to come. If you see a post that blatantly violates the rules of this forum I ask that you please notify me, especially if the abusive message has just recently been posted. If you are a registered user a link to "Report This Message" will be available at the bottom of each post. If you are not a registered user I'd ask that you please email a link to the message to
cary@fairfaxunderground.com. I'd like to thank the users that have notified me of the most recent abuse, had it not been for you I would have never realized the severity of this incident.
Unfortunately I do not have the time to review every message that is posted here. In order to ensure that this forum remains a resource for the masses and doesn't degrade into a stomping ground for a few thugs it seems that it is time for me to tap some moderators. If you understand and agree with my philosophy on moderation and are interested in becoming a moderator for this forum please
email me a few lines on why you think you'd make a good fit. Lurkers may certainly apply, in fact I'd prefer it.
If you have been banned and feel that it was not justified,
Please email me at
cary@fairfaxunderground.com and I will investigate.
To the perpetrator of the recent abuse,
Please stop. Really. You're ruining it for everyone else.
- Cary (Admin, moderator, etc.)
