For those following this thread, there was an unfortunate (and quite frankly highly bizarre) tirade involving a (non-veteran) Member whose past posting history didn't raise any flags that would have lead me to believe he was not fit for our discussion community. A number of extreme and disrespectful things were said over a number of posts that quite frankly were unprovoked and unacceptable.
For those who had to read it (either by email notification, or before I was able to get to its deletion),
my apologies for not having a more robust filter for certain words -- I've been working on anti-spam, and so key-terms and strategies around what would be
"prohibited" would often surround topics like online pills, gambling, and other generic bot-like stuff you find on the internet.
Despite rarely (if ever) there being issues with comments on the PhalloBoards that universally
"cross the line," what I and others had to read today was an oversight on my part, and one that will be rectified starting today. For those who are concerned about any potential censorship, just know that these stricter measures & filters will be dealing with bigoted and extreme language unfit for any civil discourse, not actual topics that pertain to the surgical & non-surgical enhancement of the male unit.
I don't want to make this a bigger deal than it needs to be, and I certainly don't want to give credit to the now-banned user, much less even insinuate his remarks, but just know that they went into the deep end; if this said-user happens to be reading this, please seek some mental or personal help. I'm not saying this condescendingly or in jest (sincerely), but it seems that maybe you have some internal struggles that penis enlargement alone will not solve.
I would prefer this to be the last mention of the incident on the forum for the sake to staying on topic and returning to normalcy. If anyone has any questions (especially the original poster
Unknow1948), you can feel free to Private Message (PM) me anytime. And yes, the offender has been permanently banned.
Please carry on, thanks
