Drama - part 2

[Fred Zed]

We seem to have a lot of trolls here lately and other regular members who choose not to follow the rules but when I look at the stats
perb has about 7000 - 9 000 active members. We can easily
get rid of 2000 perb members and still have a viable board.

So. Just a reminder to be at your best behaviour if you want to keep your perb account.
I have banned several dozen people already this evening. I will be back later.

bump !#%%..............

 

[Canaan]

So wait, it's finally admitted that your board was filled with false reviews and multiple handle issues and your response is to go around banning anyone who has given any criticism as to how things have been run? Not even the slightest of apologies to the people that were banned in the passed simply for stating what has proven to be true about this place? Will any of those bans be lifted?

I'm curious why girls who are clearly NOT Independent, are still advertising in the independent section??? And why their accounts are still active, since it is ONE MAN posting as them, pretending to be those girls?

 

[Canaan]

Also if there was a problem banning advertisers who had time remaining, then why was BiJou so easily banned?

Sorry Fred but this is coming across like high school bullying.
It is a strong board and may have 7000+ members but saying you can afford to lose 2000 doesn't make sense. There are only a hundred or so that even post regularly here and presumably those would be the ones that you're threatening here.
Let's try to keep things in perspective.

Sure I can afford to ban 2000 or more. It would not much make much difference ! The actual number of accounts registered at perb is over 40 000
many of these are trolls who have no business being here in the first place. They only come over here when they think they can stir the pot. Ofcourse we have many
good members here also but I am quite sure they come here to enjoy the site. I can assure you you will enjoy the site much better when we are done.

Anyone can pay for as many advertising accounts as they want, I don't care who does the posting
for them.

Maybe she asked for it ?

That's YOUR opinion of what transpired and how it should be handled.
However, I get to make the final decison as to how things should be handled round here.
I don't promise that you will like my way of doing business.

all I said was:

- trolls will be dealt with
- be at your best behaviour.

 

[Canaan]

Nice attempt to side step the real question. Why do the other advertisers get to finish out their advertising time before their banning takes effect? We were told there was an "administrative issue" that prevented it, but apparently not. Are the following now all actually banned:

Iman Belvédère
Cristina Capella
Selina Sui
Sweet Monique

 

[Urquell]

for them.

Not to be combative here, but if I'm reading this correctly then anyone with an axe to grind need only buy advertising space to be free to post whatever they want for as long as their purchased time lasts? Is that correct?

 

[Canaan]

No... we were told the following:

The following individuals have been permanently banned for Multiple Handles, Shill and False Reviews.

People have been saying this was going on for months. Many of those people were banned because of their accusations. In light of this you don't see that as being rather unfair? Or are you disputing what your own moderator said?

 

[bakesale]

I was chatting with Tegan, apparently she's banned now too.

I think you are being combative. I review ads when they are purchased. Sometimes I will refuse them. But this being an escort advertising site any escort can purchase an as many advertising accounts as she wants. Sorry - if I miunderstood your question..but I don't see it as being even relevant to what I posted at the top of this thread.

Perhaps some of you ought to re-read my message. I am not here to discuss or justify PERB strategy.
I am here to explain a few things that we are doing. Been in the message board business long enough. I am not here to please anyone. I am here to do my job.

 

[Canaan]

I'm not sure why you chose to respond to this over a PM instead of publicly where the conversation was being had. But there's a bit of a logical fallacy here it seems. If they wanted to discredit the board it would not be worth posting about it here where it would be brought to your attention and possibly acted on. In fact, by bringing up on your board what was going on, it could be seen as showing people actually *care* what goes on here and want to see it as a legitimate place. Thus they expose fraudulent activities so the mods can examine and act on them.

you never post a Private Message on a public forum. Usually we ban people for that !
This is an example of the bad behaviour that I was talking about.....
and perhaps you missed these comments:
