What is your opinion on BANNED MEMBERS

[topjimmy]

I have been flooded with private messages since signing back on!! It’s been great to hear from so many of you.

Some of what you’re telling me though, has me thinking….

There have been a lot of people banned here, I mean a LOT…for “rule violations”

My question is this: Were all of these people a bunch of pieces of shit who deserved to go for wreaking havoc on the board?

What are your thoughts on this?

Or, let me ask…..

Were any of the banned people actually well-liked, contributing members who found themselves in the crosshairs of site staff members only to be banished and cast away forever?

Like I said on another post, you can message me privately if you so choose, but I’m just curious about this and more importantly, who do you miss? Who was a good member, but they got banned? AND, should we invite them back?

Speak freely my friends. I’m interested in hearing your thoughts on both sides of the coin……

So this is like bringing your firearms in at the police with no questions asked. I understand members being banned for something outright, but if a member has been a contributor since the website went up and has countless likes, messages, etc., then a first time rule infraction could be a 30 day ban. It might be a lot of work, but a quick highlight of the rule infraction. If you have a repeat offender, then sure go ahead and outright ban and delete the account. You can easily tell those of us who have spent the 5 years building this community as oppose to someone who sets up an account and just advertises or asks questions about damages.

From what I understand, your administrator rAMPage was in the wrong. Not only by mistakenly banning people who were writing honest reviews (which he was allowed to unilaterally decide was shilling), but by using such offensive language in doing so. Other boards warn people if they are thought to be committing a violation of the terms of service and they have the right to be heard. You just ban longstanding members and then call them pieces of shit behind their backs AFTER they are banned and, as such, they have no right to respond or defend themselves. I'm surprised you'd even ask about this topic. You guys know what you allowed to happen here. And, if you don't, then take a good look.

Well, actually and sadly RobRoy, I have been away for a long time due to “real life” matters.

I’m on now, and you’re right..that’s exactly what I’m doing….a deep dive, and that includes asking for feedback from the people who actually make this site possible, it’s valued members

Thank you good sir for openly sharing

Honestly, some of them were long time members who had great reviews and give good advice. Would be nice to see them back.

One thing I do agree should be an automatic ban, though, is any mention of BBFS.
This causes immense problems for girls because if one guy mentions it (whether true or not), then every idiot and his moron brother thinks he has a "right" to it in a session.
So yeah, on that issue - unleash the ban hammer with full force.

The moderators could just edit the review and let the reviewer know not to do it again. After that if he does it, maybe a long suspension will help him get the hint. A banning should really be a last resort.

Here's a few off the top of my head:
Manfrentjensen
Cutterman
Kandyland
Jpnt

Be great to have them back.

 

[topjimmy]

Thank you AutomaticSlim. Appreciate that.

I agree w Wayne on the BBFS stuff. It’s all about educating the members on the protocol. Sending them away, especially with no explanation, does not accomplish that. Remove it. Educate the member about discretion with respect to certain activities, and move along. Leave the members thankful that they learned something without being humiliated or berated in the process…or banished forever, which is a pathetic shame

A member that I heard was banned from another member (not first hand info) is VJLUTZ. Assuming that he wants to come back, I would like to see him considered. Always a great contributor imo.

Seconded.

Evolfonam is another. Swann as well.

The banning is sometimes imo too over the top. There are sometimes people that get banned and it isn't so clear cut that they broke a rule. I understand breaking a rule and you get banned but when you aren't breaking a rule and members get banned it makes people not want to post much if at all.

This site is still imo the best forum online however it has lost it's momentum a bit. Perhaps you can implement a process and stages before they get banned on things that arent so clear cut.

My other acoount was banned and I didn’t even get an explanation why. The last message I posted was about the moderators being SLOW in taking actions. It took them more than 24+ hours to remove a fake thread created to defame a lady. Her actual pictures and phone number were listed . The very next day when I tried to log in I found that my account was banned.

rAMPage is out of control.

I know members, including myself that legit see and review multiple girls a week and write good informative reviews, and were wrongfully called shills and banned. I've never written a fake review in my life and I've seen every girl I've ever reviewed. Between all my handles on this board over the years, I have written about 200 legit, accurate reviews. I've never been paid ever to write a review. rAMPage also seems to have a love for certain establishments and providers in Philadelphia and NYC. God forbid you make a negative comment about any girls real age vs her proclaimed age, and you get banned. There are girls out there with heavily photoshopped or even fake pics trying to pass themselves off as being in their 20s, when they are actually in their 40s and 50s. Make a truthful comment, and you get banned. These aren't assumptions on my part either. Some of them their age has been disclosed in their arrest records and mug shots easily publicly available on the internet.

Last one for today I promise.
Please also consider reinstating Michael_Choo
Thanks.

Pine needles or Pineneedles is harmless. He has a fat ass fetish. He had no idea that a review for Asstyn Martin was a fake scam. He liked it and got banned. He's been trying to make a new account, but he keeps getting rejected.

 

[Jeff2828]

Haven’t been active on this forum all that long yet, but I have heard from others through PMS about members being unfairly banned. My opinion on it would be that bans should really be a last resort and maybe educating members when they do break a rule or timing people out for between a week and a month for repeat offenses with a ban being like a third strike. One thing I have noticed is certain moderators on the site completely lack any respect for members and will blow up in a tantrum cursing out someone who violated a rule whether it be a small violation or something more major. I think it would be nice to get to a stage where the mods and members both have respect for each other.

 

[Chache55]

Set a system in place, possibly a strike rule, first time week or so ban next time perma

If you could bring back these 3 Philly members that would be awesome!

My account is fairly new but I have known about our site for the last 2 years and whenever I would lurk on the site as just a visitor, these fellas would provide great discussions to the Philly forums that allowed newbies like myself to gain more insight on different providers, spas, & just general knowledge or expectations on how to be a monger. Now having private access and seeing these OG’s of the site not being able to post is an absolute bummer. Please bring these fellas back if you can!
