Got an email complaining that too many non-running threads are still in the running category.
This probably won't change anything, but if you click on "report post," there is no bullet point for "Non-Running topic posted under "Running." You should probably add that to the "report post" popup.
Yes. will do this.

I just have some general questions for those that have ran for him personally, or have been monitoring his coaching tactics against your team when you see his squad at collegiate level races. Is he a good coach or crappy coac...
Thats a weak tactic but yes its been done before many times. The racist deno stalker uses six phones when he posts his BBC/MOTEL6 crap.
wait I thought you couldn't see IP addresses?
Regular mods can't see IP address. Super mods (people who work for LetsRun) can. I just confirmed this by logging in as a regular mod Malmo can easily just tell from the person posting the same crap over and over it is the same poster.
I find the 4:30 miler's threads entertaining but most here know he is not a real coach. There is not a single university in San Antonio that even knows him. Last Sunday he claimed he did a workout with his team before morning mass. He claimed the weather was 58 degrees. It was 27 that day and barely got above freezing later in the day. Don't know many colleges that have team workouts on Sundays unless a major meet is needed to be prepared for. Whenever I call him out, and it is politely, my posts get deleted. Please don't say because I asked about his arrest record because I am giving him a chance to tell his side of the story. It sure beats his false identity.
He really doesn't coach in San Antonio? Figured he did. Email me if you want as I'm curious about this

What’s wrong with letting a thread go off the rails as long as it is generating entertainment that harms no one?

You've got a point. But if the thread just becomes people insulting one another we don't want that and if it gets worse than that we don't want it either. If mods are constantly dealing with reported posts in a thread that has been up for while. Often it will just get deleted instead of locked for expediency.

I think there exists an issue with certain posters who are unable to distinguish between various subtle shades of humor in posts and taking their communication with others they disagree with on LRC as too personal. Probably not an easy fix for this.
No I didn't. I said that you should be doxxed if you continued with your reprehensible behavior. That was a suggestion, not a threat. Let it go...
Considering you may have information on the person, more so than the normal poster here, this is a really problematic thing to say. Who else has the power to dox someone on this website besides moderators and brojos? This is honestly really really bad.
I agree. If posters around here have to worry that they’re going to get doxxed because Malmo doesn’t like their posts, then this isn’t an open forum.
The 430miler is entertaining, yet I know by his history not to take everything as literal. Sometimes fiction has more impact than the facts.
I'm not trying to get rid of the guy. I'm his number one fan. I just want people to know about him before they take his advice too seriously. Seems like it's only my posts that get deleted when I ask for the truth from him.

There was 1 poster who has created issues in the past on a particular subject and at the time of Al Cantello's death there was concerns he was doing it again is my understanding. malmo thought the best way to get this poster to stop was to threaten to dox them.
I wish it had been handled differently but this I think is a once in a 20 year type of deal.
I know this message board is running on a program that was a 14 year old Lithuanian boy's project for his junior high computer class in the fall 2003, but if there should be a way to tell someone that they thread they are replying to has been deleted before they finish their post. It is pretty annoying to write a long reply in a thread and hit post only to find out that the thread has been deleted. Better yet, why not have all threads pass through admins before going live on the message board? That would make it harder for the board to get spammed and would get rid of the multiple threads that pop up whenever there is a big race or big event in the news.
That is one solution. And even better one is to stop deleting so many threads. There is no law that says this board has to be so heavily moderated.

430miler, whose legal name is Barrett M Dahl, absolutely coaches in the San Antonio area at our incarnate lady of st mary university. I ran for him for 3 seasons before transfering into Virginia in December. It being my senior year,I transfered away for personal reasons, none really related to him directly. No real coaching complaints, but them manager who washes the uniforms has down syndrome. His name is Busby. On the bus on the way back from our regional qualifier for xc season last year, 3 of the runners took a big box of French fries, dumped sweet and sour sauce all over them, and chicken them at Busbys face. Pretty cruel but people did laugh and busby started crying.
Coach Dahl did not discipline them. Hath they wouldn't have been our top 3 fastest dudes, he would have done something. That was pretty much the last straw for me. That plus I wanted to be closer to my family is why I transfered. I can provide my email if you want to know more particulars, but I'm not big on public axe grinding.

Never Return Evil for Evil
Hi Owners of this Website,
Usually don’t post much, more a “lurker”
Please consider this request to ban the poster “TMADDDHASFNE” for lifetime.
From what we see, this is a really sick guy who - frankly comes across like Craig Donnelly, who stalked Emily Enfeld tragically - is obsessed with Valby Parker and her “tan” ? Is that appropriate ? - is an Old man yet admits that he has the mind of a 14 year old ? - holds homophobic views, fundamentalist Christian, very judgmental of others - calls people Communist when they disagree with him, or Satan lovers - constantly talks about “Pure Hate” like a cherished personal value. Hate, really? - HARASSES people online on this message board constantly such as “Greg” - Denigrates several women runners like Alexi Pappas
Wejo, let me put this back on track and cut away from all the personal recriminations of the past 2 pages.
Here is another idea for you. Why not have someone approve every new thread? That happens on other sites I go to. So, approve new threads, and post reasons for why you took down other threads. All good ideas.
…but sometimes mods just delete them without stating a reason.
I would consider this a problem.

Stoppit Smith doesn’t like me. I’m okay with this!
We do not know who that person is. Our family (and friends) take issue with you specifically for some if not many of the posts you have made on this message board. Perhaps there is a reason why apparently there are multiple people who take issue with and do not appreciate what you post. Thanks.

Nice try. He's not a coach anywhere. Never has and never will.

Not on the faculty, not on the staff, not even a track or cross country team. It's a D2 school. Claims of him having athletes at D1 nationals completely false. But I like the imagination.

Wait I've been trolled all these years.
There is an University of Incarnate World and a St Mary's University in San Antonio but not an Incarnate Lady of St Mary University.
Incarnate World has track and cross country but no Barret Dahl on the coaching staff. St Mary's doesn't have track or cross country.
