I've already answered the copy and paste question - but you still haven't responded to the statement I made that posts of a certain content aren't to be posted?

This argument will go on and on DT - but if my posts aren't to your liking - I will refrain from posting at Liberty for the time being.  For future members, you should lay some ground rules so they understand they can post anything as long as you approve of it.

I have no objection to anything you post at liberty.  What have I said there that makes you think you can not post anything of interest to you?

There are
no
rules on posting and
nothing
has ever been moderated or removed.  I can not make it any plainer than that.  What rules do you suggest I write to carry that message that I have forgotten to include in the following statement which is the posted 'rules' at liberty.

Your suggestions to make it clearer to you?

Mantra,  I saw your last post on Liberty earlier.  What are you going on about?

Perhaps it is you who is paranoid ... worrying unnecessarily about  having to log in and out, etc.?  I log into Ozpolitics and don't log out, my name is still showing as online there after I browse elsewhere and come back.  However, should I want to post something, I have to log in again.  This is pretty normal with Forums. You aren't permanently logged in and even if you were, what do you think might happen?  The Forum Admin might be able to find out your IP address but that tells them nothing, just what ISP you use and probably what area you are in. So what?  Nobody can get your physical, home address, from an IP number.

Stop worrying.  Wink

IP's are logged with posts on most forums. Some people have a permanent IP so you can get that personal info directly. I think there are plenty of ways to get it indirectly. that's the risk you take when you post online.

The last thing I need is people choosing to be there, then complaining about the forum. If it is not for you, I would rather you were happy elsewhere.  I live for fun.  If the forum never has more than one member, my life will be unchanged.  I would like people to post there, but my preference is they post about issues, not the forum's slowness.


I didn't complain about the slowness - I complained about other technical issues - as well as moderation, which you would assume a moderator might explain the reasons why in a calm and dispassionate manner and get it over and done with.  In fact I think you've virtually told me not to post at Liberty indirectly about 3 times in this thread.

I have already explained why this thread was started:

Quote:
Seeing as you've occasionally mentioned Liberty on this forum and you don't want to be PM'd and there's difficulty getting onto Liberty - I didn't think this would upset FD too much.  When I did mention this problem on Liberty, you didn't give an explanation. 


FD will probably move it to chat, which is a good idea.  I made a mistake posting it in feedback and now I wonder why I even bothered to make enquiries about Liberty and expect an objective response.

Sheesh.......DT......please..............

This is true.

What a strange statement - seeing as you have discussed Ozpolitics elsewhere and in a derogatory manner.


You have been bagging FD as a tryant/despot/Idi Amin/Adolf/ etc etc, yes?

Yes.

That is why you spawned your own Forum, yes?

Yes.

I have actually said if you are unhappy posting there for whatever reason maybe it is not for you dude.  And your constant paranoid imaginings make me think you are unhappy posting there.

However what I have said is that if you are unhappy with the explanation given (several times now) then don't flood freediver's forum with your complaints. 

I said, and I repeat, this is not liberty - this is Ozpolitic.  Talk about Ozpolitic here and liberty there.  However if your posts are just about the forum issues and you are aware of them then feel free to refrain from posting if it is just to whine.  It can't be any fun spending all your time online complaining about stuff you are already aware of.  Have fun online, don't destroy yourself over issues beyond your control.

Right here dude.  Where freediver has a right of reply.  Not 'elsewhere' as mantra claims.  It is against my ethicality to deny someone the right of reply.  Hence liberty.

Thanks Aussie - I know you're not the only other person who has seen this sort of comment.


Deepthought - you've made a mountain out of a molehill.  You've now become abusive because you can't respond rationally and you've said the same old stuff over and over again.

It's obvious that you can't manage the technical side of the forum - just admit it and get over it.

Abusive?  Please copy and paste that abuse.

I don't have any control over DNS servers, the host does.  I have to rely on their technical expertise.

(this is actually becoming quite amusing now)

Goodness me. Smiley

To have a permanent IP addy you MUST be posting from your work station.  Then you would know what "company" the person is posting from and maybe track them down?  

Challenge ..... PM me with where and who I am and my home address and phone number.  Roll Eyes

No thanks. I didn't say it was easy. It would take the dedication of a stalker.

Funny neferti - but I'm more worried about hackers.  Just being cautious.

My IP is permanent, and I post from home.  The IP has been the same for several years.
