go to your "profile" section where you can choose to "ignore" certain posters.
I have just chosen to use it myself and boy do I feel better!

Has saved me lots of time as I do not have read a lot of silly stuff around here.

BTW, if PA takes a message off it is NOT censorship. Only governmental authorities can officially "censor" you. This is a private bulletin board paid for by PA, a private citizen. It is like a newspaper. He can choose to publish whomever he likes. He can expel you, he can choose not to print certain messages he deems offense or not in the spirit of the board.

it is as if this is USA Today and the editor/publisher decides not to print a Letter to the editor or an op-ed piece someone submits.

Censorship would be if the government (or any official body) did not allow USA Today to print something.

Thanks for that re-education (re: censorship). Some people just don't get it....I laugh when the word censorship is thrown at me, as if I am somehow un-American because I delete a post or throw a poster out of here....it's truly pathetic and funny at the same time....


See you in a few days!

Tom:

PA's "submit reply" key is loaded with SuperGlue, huh?

What a way to increase your message count! LOL

More censorship! I see several of Tom's posts from yesterday are gone!

BTW Tom, are you accepting the 7 day ban, or are you appealing the sentence?:) :) :)

I will appeal the ban. I am innocent.
I am a victim. I should sue. Anyone know a good shyster on the internet?
