The mods needed to ban a bunch and require all greyboxing to register.  That would have stopped a lot of stuff.

Agreed...but I never even saw a Mod on there since 2012 or so.   Having everyone register would have been better.

But yet, you are allowing it here on Texas Pete's Forum.
You've also permited multiple accounts (socks) to register here using their aliases.

What is our true count of actual members registered here?

That route would have stopped a lot of stuff - you are correct in that statement.

Here's a national forum that's been around for a long time where all the Topix refugees should congregate and reassemble

http://heymarthaforums.dailynuisanceproductions.com/

No socks, no partisan mods, everyone is treated equally and fairly
DUDE...I've just gotta ask...

What's with all the "dailynuisanceproductions" stuff????

THAT sounds REALLY safe...

It's just a name dude, like Mad magazine. 

http://heymarthaforums.dailynuisanceproductions.com/index.php is FAR safer than Topix ever was and is FAR safer than any free forum especially this one.

http://heymarthaforums.dailynuisanceproductions.com/index.php also is completely ad free, and did I mention it's a long time NATIONAL forum, not a solo splinter, ad full, free forum.
You're welcome to post and I will leave these links up but any more will be considered spam.

No, Thanks.  Think I'll stay here.  Good luck with that thing, though...

What about all the links you've posted to this place on other forums, aren't those then spam?

It's typical of these self run splinter forums that the guy running it always thinks everything should be as he says and not as he does.   ;)

I didn't litter the forums with my link and in Columbus even asked permission to post my
link. You were told to stop spamming there not me.

Cool, just pointing Topix refugees to a much better option.

Here's a quote from a mod on the Colombus forum to Topix Helper.

"You've shilled your forum enough on here. We get it. You have a forum."

I don't know about multiple accounts because I don't do that or post grey, I quit posting grey when I first registered at topix. As far as having multiple accounts, I didn't because I wouldn't have been able to keep up with them.

You did on several forums.  I've posted the HMFs link far less than you've posted links to this self run, ad based, free splinter forum. 

I hope everyone notices how you're already threatening to take action against me.  Another typical way self run forums censor posters unequally, especially if the guy running it doesn't like what's being said.   ;)

I'm fine with what all here think and this is a smart bunch. I think they will see you for what you are.

Well what am I other than someone who's trying to point other Topix refugees to a more apt, safer, ad free, equanimously run national forum - ht - one that's not being run by one ego driven dude.

You don't like that.  Your ego doesn't like that.  You want to take action against me.  I think everyone gets it.   ;)
Are all on your forum trolls like you?
