Years ago, I asked the brojos to PLEASE do something like requiring a confirmation for anyone posting a topic as "Running Thread" only. It should include a warning the posters posting non-running content there will be banned. ... The moderators should be reviewing the threads created there and remove or relocate them, while noting the posting name and IP of the moran.

Yes. Just censor like all the big tech companies do. I'm a special flower and my delicate sensibilities need protecting... and better not allow me to be exposed to unpopular or unapproved ideas. I might end up outside the approved groupthink.

That will definitely make Letsrun.com better.

They want to be able to claim they cleaned up the place, without actually cleaning up the place.

The nutcases know they found a haven here

I love the smell of napalm in the morning.

Requiring registration would help. My serial stalker has registered more than half dozen handles to specifically target my posts. In addition, he then uses anonymous handles, and inflating down votes to further harass. In the end there is little one can do about mentally disturbed people. One can only hope they are not mentally ill dangerous. I have given this fear some consideration at times. He posted just above this post, and even though this thread has been going for sometime, and I have not posted, after a series of incidents on the 50+ Masters thread, I did. Sure enough the stalking moves here. The only real way to stop this type of individual, is to leave, or at least post less frequently. Remove the drug, the high they get from destructive behavior.

You're right Iggy, ignore them.

Anonymous or not, you'll always get this.

Unless...you belong to a forum (I'm a builder) and the site has multiple separate sub forums for different topics. It's quite simple there. If someone did to you what this person is doing, they'd be gone in a blink of an eye as I've seen it happen a few times.

It's really is rare though as if you sign up, they make it clear if you swear, harass or are rude you are gone. The poster are absolutely awesome and when someone disagrees with a method or technique, they are polite with their explanation.

This site will NEVER be that way as they will not do that...I still can't figure out why though? It generates more registered members, not less (trust me on that one).

I'm anonymous, but I'm not harassing anyone and I don't care about registering unless it's going to be everyone doing it, mandatory.

What would make this place better is that need to register so we will be held accountable for our actions. This hide behind a fake name so you can be a pest in a thread sucks.

I confess I didn't realize we had so many kids posting here, a lot of immaturity.

re: Deno

If I didn’t enjoy the good people I would just leave, which I may do anyway. At a certain point it is a waste of time dealing with deviant personalities.

What would make this place better is if posters were banned for making repeated homophobic and transphobic posts.

Not the grey are stuff like being opposed to transathletes in female sports....that's just open discourse.

But if you express open disgust or hatred for people based on their sexual orientation or gender identity.....you should not be welcomed here.

I think you have made several points, that from my experience with this person, the administration of this site, makes sense. On balance I know the depravity will not end, so what really is the point of one continuing to swim up stream against it?
