You know Darth, you're right. That is what we should  do. Unfortunately, we do not.  Over the years, THAT has become remarkably apparent. The temptation to snipe is far too great for many on this Board. Sorry my friend, I maintain that we do need the kind of Thread I suggest. That way, those of of that do not care for this crap and can control our urges have a haven.

Strat, you will glad to know that I have turned myself in to the webmaster as being offensive and even asked that if he feels it's best to ban me then I 
wholeheartedly agree. I have grown sick of mind and sick of patience with what goes on here. I love my friends, but I look at what I have become and I am not pleased. I've just, after months of assualt, reached my breaking point, and if Mr. Francis Chooses to ban me then it's done. 

Like I Have always said. 
When I'm wrong, I'm wrong, and dont have a problem admitting to it. This Newbie, some what abnormal, I would have never given a second glance to, but due to months of shit, I went off.

EJC, I offer you an appology,  Even though I think you  can catch more flys with honey than vinegar.

I am wrong Board, I leave my fate in Mr. Francis's hands. If I'm banned, let me tell each and everyone of my friends how much I love them.
Good night all,
Spapad

Good Morning, all!!! Thanks for all the comments regarding my idea!! I chose to use MG's response since there is a relevant argument regarding it.

You see, we have tried that. You will notice there are two "Pissing you Off" Threads. There are countless Threads asking specific questions that inevitably end up with one or more loser posting his garbage.  It is simply not the answer because there is always the idiot that will continue to do as he damn well pleases and claim it is "free speech" or some other moronic justification. We cannot censor speech here, nor should we. That is not the answer I seek. We should always have an open forum. I have asked, from day one, that we all conduct ourselves with some kind of dignity but I am one person. I do not have nearly the influence some believe I do.

If we were able to have ONE Thread that was restricted by its creator or even Murray, we could simply allow those that have earned the right to post there. Further, we would be able to chat  there with NO troublemakers! They could not get in there and we would be free of the disgusting banter we find in EVERY other Thread. The regulars could simply go to this Thread and talk about whatever they wish while those that do not want to be involved would have full access to the rest of the Board as always. We could even set up a system by which a regular would "sponsor" any newbee that wishes to gain access to this particular Thread. In this way, we could add new people to the chat and be sure they are not just more of the same idiots looking to post inappropriate trash. Allowing members in based solely on Respect Points or tenure would NOT work, as cretins like our pal Roger have clearly demonstrated.

I wish I were a "tech-nerd" of some sort so that I could actually present this idea with some intelligence to Murray , but I am not. Perhaps if enough of us get behind the idea, he will take notice? That is, if we all agree it is an effective solution.

Strat, you will glad to know that I have turned myself in to the webmaster as being offensive and even asked that if he feels it's best to ban me then I 
wholeheartedly agree. I have grown sick of mind and sick of patience with what goes on here. I love my friends, but I look at what I have become and I am not pleased. I've just, after months of assualt, reached my breaking point, and if Mr. Francis Chooses to ban me then it's done. 

Like I Have always said. 
When I'm wrong, I'm wrong, and dont have a problem admitting to it. This Newbie, some what abnormal, I would have never given a second glance to, but due to months of shit, I went off.

EJC, I offer you an appology,  Even though I think you  can catch more flys with honey than vinegar.

I am wrong Board, I leave my fate in Mr. Francis's hands. If I'm banned, let me tell each and everyone of my friends how much I love them.
Good night all,
