Hey,
Just want to say thank you for taking the time to mend the submit mode to one click.
Really appreciate the time you spent to correct the posting problem so no one has to submit their posts twice for it to register.
thanks,

Thanks!!!
absolutely agree! thanks so much, kemp
Also for getting his hands dirty and dealing with the kid. Kemp, you are the best!
YEs, I also thank you for the problem with the 'kid.'
I was really trying to give him good advise and threads to good info and it just did not register with him. Then I ws looking in my folder in my c drive for some email addies and found a page of the same thing he did at the Shroomery in the early fall of 2007.
Well maybe a good rest form the internet might help him think about not listening to others trying to help him, but I really think he just liked to play games. I mean, who makes four or five replies to his own thread within a half an hour.
Anyway, thanks for taking care of that.
I am sorry if I caused any bad reactions to him, but when people take their time to post to him and answer his questions and then he just keeps asking the questions over in other forums and playing games and not checking out the advice or links people tried to share with him, I guess he will never learn very much.
Have a shroomy day.
Thank you.
Yes,
Many thanks Kemp :D
Booosh
heh... thank you for the thanks :wink:
I only should have fixed the forum issue earlier but... that pesky procrastination thing... yaknow.
As far as the kid, we were warned way back that we would have problems but I think we went about it the right way. Gave him the benefit of the doubt and treated him as we would an other member..... and then as time went on, we really spent a lot of time answering pm's, explaining actions or reasons for not acting..... giving gentle warnings and then real warnings. He was even told in the end that he had no more extra chances left and within less than 24 hours he went ahead and completely ignored that. It got very ugly in the last few days and some of the worst posts were deleted as they contained nothing but crap. Certainly nothing you did wrong Boomer, no need to worry about that.
I do have to say thanks to Syd and Judih, they kept the place modded well while I was away at real life work. Your yearly SPF bonus checks are in the mail and I had accounting stuff a few thousand extra in there for the all-nighters you guys must have pulled, pressing all those buttons at least twice! :smoke2:
all-nighters aside - please use my bonus check to buy blankets for the poor freezing folk in the US. my daughter told me that some are without electricity till the end of february.
i hope everyone on the forum is warm enough.
perhaps we can burn the deleted posts for heat.

That's how we roll: we give everyone a fair trial before we hang em.
This is posted for discussion only. (I'm not complaining.)
As far as giving everyone a fair roll, I'm all for that. But the situation with the individual in question is another story all together, imo.
As I saw it, teo was booted from the forums due to his repeated sophomoric behavior for which he received many warnings and chose to repeatedly ignore.
On the other hand, there were numerous threads in which teo attempted to publicly break the law that were basically ignored by the mods. (There is still a post in an ibogaine thread in the trade forum where teo asks for the material in question, even though he knows its illegal in these parts.)

I didn't see any threads where he obviously broke any law, else I would have put a stop to that... but then I'm not around 100% of the time. I did find one member, who may have been Teo or just someone else, clearly asking for DMT which really got me fired up. I quickly put a stop to that and would do so again if I see anything similar. In any case, it's in the past now.
Good to see you posting again LW.
Btw, nice catch. I thought I spotted a trolling outcast this morning but the registration and vague post in question are already gone.
lw
Yeah some dude put four links to import/export type sites, in his signature.... and then added a lame, generic reply in a thread he obviously didn't read.
bu-bye.
Again, kudos to Brother Kemp!!!
