As for the comments on the blog, that's not my problem; not my jurisdiction; not my concern.

Yes the last few posts, once I became aware of what was going on. What did you expect? That I should sit idly by and watch that kind of abuse happen?

My actions do not lessen the seriousness of what happened. Still - I appreciate you closing the thread.

Damn near every blog out there allows users to delete offensive comments, and many allow owners to use IP bans to prevent certain people from posting comments. Perhaps using the tools available would be more productive than senselessly flaming here for stuff happening off site.

Then maybe you should have done your job and closed the thread earlier.

So threads that link to a blog and actively encourage NS'ers to spam the blog is fine? That's what you're tacitly saying here. Yes the comments have been deleted, but when you get 31 of them in under 24 hours with the same referrer, you generally go to the source don't you?

Stop trying to justify the thread with the excuse that it's off-site. The SOURCE of the problem is HERE. Which is why I came HERE to sort it out.

Quick, tell me the content of all 2 million posts in General. How about the 1 million posts in International Incidents? No? How about the 150,000 in the UN forum.

Still no luck? How about the 3800 in Jennifer Government?

See, when I agreed to be a Moderator, I wasn't told that I needed to know the exact content of every single post on the forums so that I could act instantly. I was told that the process was for people to report the problems to me so I can act. I was also told that I was allowed to do things other than moderate the forums. Thanks for clearing up my duties. Be sure to let Max know you've change the rules, okay?

Dear whiny bitches.

Stop spamming my girlfriends blog with your inane, juvenile spew. While I understand that your hormone driven minds are incapable of reconciling critisim of your precious game, I think you've crossed a line at this point and this is a formal request for you to STFU already. In case you lame ass idiots hadn't noticed, the post in question is from APRIL 2005, so I think it's about time you moved on, because we both have and this just confirmed why I want nothing to do with NS anymore. pwnd.

This thread has turned into abuse and the blog is now being spammed by NS's referred from here. I will be advising NS Admin and requesting that this thread be closed and that relevant parties be disciplined.

I think you've forgotten that there are real people involved here and that NS is just a game.

BTW: feel free to read Ibis's response to your little "attack" here:

Yup. Came out flaming. Good way to "solve" the problem. Instead of coming here and reporting it like you should have, you decided to make things worse. Don't you dare try to play the victim card on this one.

Also, in reviewing that thread, the first post does not encourage spamming, actively or otherwise.
