I don't recall anyone arguing that you didn't have such a right. Just because you have a right to do something doesn't immunize you from criticism or automatically make the act 'good' or even 'mature'. As a fellow conservative, I expect you to know that, however.

Do you really think the comments on this thread have been mature? Do you think coming on our board and trolling (Plognark hasn't, but others from here have) is mature?

Actually, having read through your forum and seeing the appaling immaturity and hatred prevalent in there, I don't think anything said here can even compare in the least. Most of what is said here, honestly, is quite deserved. But the fact is that it is being said here, where your readers don't have to hurt their precious eyes looking at it.

As for coming on the board and trolling, that's not good for anyone to do. But changing links around to hide what Plog has been saying (as you say, he is not trolling) is not going to stop those who wish to make trouble for you.

Sorry if my methods offend you, but I'm just tired of users from here coming to our board and using our board to call our moderators child molesters, hypocrites, etc. Like I said, there's nothing I can do about it on the IIDB end. I wouldn't try to do anything. I don't believe in that kind of thing.

Have you tried emailing the administrators of this board and asking them to respectfully request that the members here stop trolling your board? I suspect they'll have more pull with the locals here than you might, and it would be in their best interests. If this keeps up, then it's only a matter of time before one of yours gets the idea to start it up on your end, and then we have a troll war, and that sucks.

I don't speak for other users here. There are mature users and immature users. I spoke out against trolling a few pages back:

That said, I know its hard to go over there honestly because 10 to 1 they'll look you up over here, see that you post on IIDB, and dismiss you offhand.
That said, it is quite a poor excuse and red herring to point out immaturity of users here to justify your own immaturity.

I agree. That's what I'm trying to avoid.

By the way, I'm impressed with how fast this board moves. We tend to go a little nuts with the graphics.

This issue has come up in the past and although we (administrators and moderators) don't condone such behaviour, users here are not obligated in any way to follow our rules outside the jurisdiction of this web board nor can we punish anyone for discretions or exercises in bad judgement that occur extrajurisdictionally.
