You'll be happy to know I had to take extreme measures, but you will be happy to know Mr. Dave Bottoms aka Norm Smith has been blocked as have all his other false names.

See how long it takes for him to reappear yet under another phony name.

I would have to say that blocking Norm Smith is a exercise in futility. Why bother if he can just come back as someone else?

Thats a good point Jason. If we all complain to the appropriate people I think we can keep him out. We will all know when he's back. He's lurking right now figuring out what new name he will use.

Cheers,

Over the years there have been some threads removed and some folks banned, but for the most part this board is not moderated and almost all post stay as they were posted.

It's a good thing.

If you want to be moderated and have your posts spell checkd(sic) you may want to visit TIJ.
