noi, i agree that the anonymous troublmakers are a problem, its harrassment & a form of cyber bullying & can take away the fun of being part of the forum for many

the ball really is in brian's court, i'll respect his decision as it's his site to do as he pleases, i've only been annoyed & responded to some of the things thrown my way, most of the time i ignore the comments aimed at annons as i just felt those comments were referring to the troublemakers, tbh i can see how my nickname might appear like im trying to be offensive or gie it the big un, but i then hoped my behavior would show that i wasnt, i did sign up after a few beers & i think my first post was a fill the captions to a photo, i think you were in the photo but i didnt know what u looked like, had only read good reports about your name though & did know you came from a world class gym & while i'm a novvice & a nobody i was singing the praises of bad co & liam harrison anywhere i went 6+ years ago whenever the subject of farang boxers came up, i even sang the praises of bad co & liam harrison to the uk gym that i went to...so ive had nothing but respect for you guys for a long time & with hindight i wouldnt have signed up with this username just my first name, which isnt even billy haha


if brian kept the members as they are & as phil suggested issue a warning 1st to calm down if the person is out of line & if the behavior continued then a ban along with the ip address being banned, or perhaps change the membership so that new members have to be sworn in on a referal, whoever refers the new members is jointly responsible for what that person says & their actions, in other words dont refer somebody that you wouldnt want running their mouths & being offenseive at the risk of both members being banned, another option is a nominal fee, never used paypal but 50p or £1 or somthing like that & the same paypal account can only be used the once..i dont know if any of that's possible??
but these decisions are all down to brian as the owner, i never had a problem with anything he wanted to do with his site i just didnt like the assumptions he was making about me

all the best
