Perhaps I'm a bit out of sync, but it seems that the mob is running DNForum instead of some sensible minds lately.

From my casual observation, this may be the result of:

a) the lack of respect for voluntary moderators (which I'm sorry to say, action has to be coming from Adam himself to revert it), and

b) an ultra "Laissez-faire" policy of moderation which has seriously hurt the "rule of law".

For a small circle of closely knit and respectable businessmen, the latter, anything goes forum management style may work. But DNForum is much bigger than that, and many quiet lurkers (who could well be your core clients) may have already been offended by those active bullying few who think they are running DNForum.

Let me cite 2 examples here:

- http://www.dnforum.com/f496/107-dom...t-ztom-net-streamsrubs-com-thread-384574.html

This guy (GUA) CLEARLY and knowingly post his "above $100" sales in the "$100 and under" section, but no action was taken.

- http://www.dnforum.com/f254/obama-wins-nobel-peace-prize-9-thread-390136.html#post1799028

This REPORTED post CLEARLY requires action. I couldn't believe any sensible moderator would think otherwise and let DNForum goes down like one of those cheap forums where kids paste a dozen pictures in a single post.

So my question is, what's wrong with DNForum moderation?

Are these the kind of "disgusting" and "offensive" names you're so annoyed by? Or are they worse than that? ;)

No, I cant say they even compare to the vial and hardcore names that were being posted here... You of course know that, I'll bet you were disappointed not to find any in my portfolio.... Nice try FDF.

And I DONT own a non-profit, so stop posting LIES, like you always do.

I also ask the mods to remove the domains you posted, since I never posted them here.

Raider, doesn't your "non profit" domain company PyraLink Media own such gems as cleanshavedteens.com and youngschoolgirls.com?

Or do I have the wrong person? :) Are these the kind of "disgusting" and "offensive" names you're so annoyed by? Or are they worse than that? ;)

wowow......:rolleyes:

And CleanShavedTeens refer to Clean Shaven Teenaged Boys vs Teenaged Boys with facial hair.

Ah ok, so it is safe to assume the ppc links will be razor blades and shaving cream for post-pubescent young males?

Whew, glad to hear that.

It's partly because of jabs like this that people want the political forum to go away...

It wasn't a jab, I've been here long enough to know that this is exactly what's going to happen.

I think we need to crack down more on our forum trolls. These people do nothing but cause problems in our community. Mostly referring to people who go off topic about 99% of the time, never talk about domains, never lend domain knowledge and do nothing but get into spats with our members. We have no room for forum trolls.

Mostly referring to people who go off topic about 95% of the time, never talk about domains, never lend domain knowledge and do nothing but get into spats with our members. We have no room for forum trolls.

I wonder who that could be......:rolleyes:

At what point can we make that call?

For me, it was post #64.

For every one else, well...they can post their own results.

This thread is probably the most long-winded, ridiculous, exaggerated, over-done and one of the lowest value threads I have ever seen on this board.
