also what comes to mind..is an easy*share button..[like they got on some news-sites..that posts..the topic to facebook etc]

also what comes to mind..is a button..that saves*..a given post..ONTO[or into..a favoured posts page]...with another button..for posts we want to keep in mind...that may reveal systemised abuse..for the worriers amoung us

[like flame..*set-ups..that by themselves
dont look*..bad..but in total..*show a systematic plan of attack]

<<You mean...a change on OLO>>no im sort of fond of it as it is

everything..in moderation..
[see how i brought it back to topic?]
from its beginning..in offtopic..back to the moderated rule

I read your post Danielle. Tricky isn’t it, shouldn’t be but I keep writing stuff then thinking “oh no” and killing my own messages half written now.

So let’s do this thing, we’re growing up and moving on and surging forth into a new and civil age of Online Opinion.

Watched a fight recently on another site, got down right filthy, out of hand, feelings were probably really badly hurt given the accusations being thrust into public. I’m all good not seeing another one ever again.

That was cruder though where here the meanness from some can be quite calculated but just as staggering... yep I’m happy to say goodbye to it and just retain the fond memories of the odd battle here.

Cries of “but he did it first” or “but she got away with it yesterday” don’t cut it really... and of course some people get away with some stuff cause they have some kind of tenor or personal connection to the boss, real life for adults is just like that isn’t it? I obviously benefit from neither of those things and I really do believe I’ll be fine and probably cop the consequences now and again if I do mess up.

Belly babe you asked somewhere if you had upset me… I can’t find it now but the answer is no absolutely not, not ever that I can recall. And umm... Foxy is back she’s just a different name and writing longer sentences.

Corny good call – I went and checked my other e-mail, I’d forgotten OLO mail went to it after my Jewel name stopped being used. Doh.

Much of the criticism of Graham seems to revolve around perceived political bias. I'm roughly on the same side of politics as Graham (although I suspect we would differ on specific issues) so I be missing stuff on that front.

As far as I'm aware Graham is christian (although not I suspect the nasty inflict it on everyone else variety). I'm a former christian and have on a number of occasions made some fairly strong posts regarding the christian message, the nature of the christian god etc. I've tried to do so within the published rules and with some respect for christians who are not part of the extremist portion of christianity but I suspect that much of the content could still be deeply offensive to some. I've never as far as I'm aware seen any sign of censorship of opinions critical of the faith.

I suspect that if political bias was a reason for an uneven hand in deletions and suspensions those of us who post critically in regard to christianity should be having a similar experience. I'm utterly convinced that does not happen, at worst we may see more theology pieces than others of us would choose.

Cornflower - my remark was meant as a joke. As for people posting under a number of aliases - as far as I am aware that is not permissable.

HA, pied piper, I like it.

My blog is actually called, Warning: May contain traces of bast*&d. Seriously. lol

So,

the glorious people's republic of Pomerania, having been towed beyond the five mile limit and set itself up as "the even *more* famous *pirate* OLO", experiences a global experiment in the adiabatic expansion of heated fluids.

I suggest they be slated for immediate offshore detention and indefinite (but entirely organic) processing.
