For the warnings, the PM's etc...I lost my server about 5:00 p.m. and just got online when the alerts hit. Gaye and I worked quickly to clear the board as fast as possible-

Just wanted to let you know we appreciate your keeping it to reportings only and not making it a major issue on the boards. Don't give them any more satisfaction from this-


Thanks!

Thanks MA and Gaye for getting everything off so quickly!


And thank you Sandra and Steph for replying to the PMs so quickly! I don't think everyone would have stayed so calm without you!

Yep, we did good.
No one panicked. Only two threads were started to give the trolls a little teeny satisfaction, and hardly any responses to those. Good job guys!


Thanks to Hydroaxe and ash bct for your quick responses to my PM's. It was appreciated.

I'm sorry I was one of the ones to start a thread like that and won't for the future - I know all about trolls and their satisfaction, I just felt like the members here deserved a warning because of the extreme nature of the content.

I understand, Amy. But trolls post extreme content simply to get attention. They want their names and the content talked about, so the content is almost always extreme for that very reason.

Please don't take my previous comment wrong. I AM proud of everyone. Your heart was in the right place.


One thing we all can do is PM one another as well as PM'ing the mods. That way we can give each other a private warning and block the spammers user ID's.

Peace,
mrsd

In the upper right hand corner of each and every post here is a little red triangle with an exclaimation point in it ... this is the Report Post Function. It will alert all Mods of the problem at once and those who are online can get here fast.

They make me sick!

I know i hit the alert button in the SOS forum yesterday after someone put their first post on in the shooting of the cats in Wisconsin thread, who said they would shoot a cat if it wandered into their property without a collar

Thank YOU, MA and all the mods. This is what makes TCS the BEST site there is!!!

I wasn't online when it happened this time so I'm curious. There were a couple of threads in the Lounge I subscribed to yesterday that are no longer available. Were they deleted because of trolls?
