I am John from Montreal and I am checking out some forums for information not found in the mainstream. If I see something to comment on, I might say something.

I must say, that the love of censorship on this forum surprises me somewhat. We have a saying in Canada; that if you don't like someones opinion in your life and if this opinion is not interfering in your life, then one should simply live and let live and let it not be a bother!
I should like to point out to you and others who come across these types of postings that IF you read the reason Carol gave for banning the two members who have been banned.
For the reason : repeated posting graphic images of abused child
No, you will NOT read anything in what they're posting now that is the reason for their banning. And you will not see those sad and horrible images that she objected to in these new posts because they were deleted.
Please read the info more carefully before you judge this forum and Carol unfairly.
(And if you are just another version of either Shiloh or Raven posting as others, you asked for what you got by repeating these image postings after Carol had asked you not to. Simple. You did it to yourselves. Get over it already. )

Please review the forums guidelines. Rarely is anyone censored unless they are spamming other people's threads or have violated the forum's posting guidelines. The primary guideline is mutual respect.
Raven=Lemon Drop & others / Shiloh=messerschmidt & others (same IPs) were banned for violating several of the guidelines "repeatedly" including generating multiple membership accounts to continue posting after being banned for graphic content and spamming, along with Raven using Shiloh's account to continue posting/spamming after she was initially banned. Only one membership account is allowed per member.
One of their threads was moved to the admin section of the forum and will be returned at a later date. After they stop generating multiple accounts to continue their spamming.

Yup, that's them. They were banned previously for crossing the line and were let back in. Now it's permanent.

Same with me I missed most of what took place here while I was taken away by personal matters I need to put all my attention to at the moment. We have lived peacefully with the dragons for several years when we kindly offered them a new home here in the Mists. And I believe most of us showed much patience and tolerance with them although we weren't able to always understand the language they used. How things can change in the blink of an eye and balance lost to a point of no return. I don't think it was fair to have spammed the Mists with so many posts on multiple threads. A desperate measure for sure from someone who lost their poise. I would have expected from Shiloh a better and more sensible choice no matter how right he must have felt for doing so. Lets remember banning in the Mists is the very last measure taken when everything else failed.
