Thank God that the trolls have no interest in reloading. Shhh don't tell them.
And I think the infractions system should do the trick. Though, I'm sure that maser in particular has already earned far too many.... to still be here.

This forum is the reincarnation of a venerable online community, coming back together after being scattered to the four winds. Some may consider it useful to have outsiders to hate. It's part of a bonding process. Stalin deployed the same technique with his attacks on "wreckers" and "anti-Soviet forces."
Group-hate, intolerance, paranoia, calls for authoritarian action, etc., are part of that bonding exercise. I think it's a daft strategy and doesn't have the support of forum management.
Indeed, I'd argue that the truly "destructive" force in this community are the small-minded, authoritarian, irrational and paranoid troll-hunters. But I understand why they do it.
Plus it's deeply humourous watching alleged freedom-loving capitalist libertarians behave like Russian Communist Party officials, circa 1950.

You do know you are painting this community with a very wide paint brush. Guns Network has always been an international community. Thing is don't let your personal swagger get the best of you as you have not dealt with many of our ol timers yet, when it comes to your "obvious" baiting. May I suggest a different color bait?
At one time this website was consider one of the most dangerous websites in the world to visit, still don't know what they were trying to mean in that guys book. But anyways we got labeled the title years ago and we have been around a long while, We have been around since 1995 and AK-47.net since 1999. This community is missing right at about three million posts and over a million threads. So we have paid our dues over the years.
Thank you for the ignore feature! This really seems to be a "fun" community WITHOUT all the homosexual references. I tend to just use the "new post" link, so I really don't notice what "room" a thread is in. With the ignore, it's MUCH better!
I think I'm being pretty fair. I've great respect for this community, it's achievements and longevity. That's why your foul-mouthed, sphincter-obsessed, petty-minded troll hunters reflect badly on you. You're better than that: bigger, tougher, uglier.
It's also why it's amusing to watch these alleged "libertarians" call for bans and ignore lists - like Stalinist secret policemen - when brought into contact with a tiny site, barely a few weeks old, with a few socialists buzzing about.
Can you see my point? Your guys need to relax: uncircle the wagons, laugh at their daft paranoia, and enjoy the internationalism.
Attitudes change quick when dicks are involved and faces are pushed into pillows.
