A caller on the Schnitt Show said today that after a segment aired yesterday about Edwards having and affair, he posted a question on this board asking if anyone had ever heard this allegation before. He stated that within 3 minutes he was banned forever from Freerepublic. What TOS did he violate if any in making his post...?
He was a newbie that posted a one question vanity.
He was a newbie (signed up today if I remember correctly). For all we knew, he was a troll. Plus, that stuff has no place here.
This guy apparently thought we were a bunch of scandal-mongering Democrats. FReepers have more class than that.
Banned???? I have list of old timers that need to be banned to the old fools home. hehehe
My curiosity is kicking up - Where did the information come from about Edwards and his "so called" affair - perhaps this is just a rumor and the owner of this site didn't want to get caught up in it - AS all kinds of tactics are being used now(close to election)to discredit someone or a site even -
just my thoughts -
> What TOS did he violate if any ...
Perhaps none. The site does remove unfounded smear posts,
and even speculation that might be so construed.
I stumbled into such a topic recently, and had a post
disappear.
Having your account vanish along with the post requires
extra effort on the user's part :-)
*rimshot!*
Great. Thanks to all...
"Who gives a Schnitt?"
LOL!!!
Oh, and BTW, I take full credit for him being banned (see the last troll on my profile page- that's him).
