Banning

[Supernick]

Hi Ed,
I'm sure that I speak for the vast majority of people who would like to have sexyairhead banned for good please. She's routinely offensive to others, often in a highly stressful way, especially concerning the nature of abortion. You've seen fit to ban her in the past, and it's now getting ridiculous on the B&S section. We're getting to the stage where it's becoming redundant due to constant arguing about her. You might say that we could just ignore her, but it's not possible, as new users are constantly coming on and so answer her wind up's, and then people start chipping in again, and before you know it there's another 10 page argument. She has never to my knowledge contributed anything posiitve to the site, and no-one would miss her if she left.

You've obviously not read kazminx's post a little bit further down than this one....

Most Abers don't apreciate a post delibrately trying to name and shame another member. If she annoys you, report her, dont whinge to "your mummy". about it

I also fail to understand why you and others seem incapable of ignoring her if she's proving too much for your blood pressure. So what if new people reply to her unbeknowing what she's like?

[Supernick]

I wouldn't normally Boo, and I'm quite happy with anyone to disagree with me 99% of the time but this one is gettingb eyond a joke. I think in this case we're in danger of losing an entire section of the answerbank, and Im quite sure most people agree. Ignoring won't work as there is simply no way of getting that kind or mentality out to a group of hundreds of people.

[B00]

Can see ya pont nick, I really can, but you know she'll just see this as another post about her- don't you? LOL

The better option would have been to contact Ed anonymously- no?

I too am fed up with how Body & Soul is lately, but I'm not just pointing the finger at her alone, she does occasionally ask fairly decent questions and these deserve decent answers. Other questions and replies from different people have recently annoyed me more.

I find the whole sl*gging her off and following her from forum to forum to be quite frankly distateful.

I also realise that i'm coming across as a real grumpy old cow (despite being only 36- lol) but no one seems to realise (or care) that Ed has allowed a certain amount of chat in the categories. This will be taken from us if we continue to take the mickey.

Even decent and legitimate questions seem to become targets for twonks now. Today for example a 14 year old boy was asking for advise on his first date- the very 1st suggestion (since reported and deleted) left me ashamed that AB is considered a family forum.

Supernick....the fact is that some folk who hate her will STILL routinely reply to her posts, it's far from just newbies being pulled in, that wouldn't account for 50 or 60 posts per thread she writes. She is a very cunning and manipulative person, and knows exactly how to lure people into her threads. I ignore her, (she bores me to tears, as does the response that follows her virtually everywhere she posts) but others can't, or won't. That's up to them, but when they then go on to whine and moan about her presence, they themselves become annoying.
and some people would miss her if she left. Whiffey has an affiliation to her that gives me the creeps, and others would miss having someone to have a go at every day, it's almost like therapy :o)

[mycats]

Exactly, I cant stand the drivel she posts,so what do I do? I DONT REPLY. It's a crazy idea I know but there you go.
No-one on here has the right to ask/beg/demand that another user gets banned.

[B00]

pure evil? Get out of here, ROFL!!!!

She's just an attention seeker and unfortunately her we seem incapable of making her go cold turkey!

[redcrx]

yeah get rid please ED.
I expect that the more hits this site gets the more revenue the site owners get from advertising so perhaps its the financial side that allows her to set up new names month in month out and start over again.
As Ive said before i hate to see her drag innocent people who are trying to help her into her lies so i do try and point out thats shes a troll and follow it with the proof so i wont always ignore her.

[sexyairhead]

I am nowhere near as bad as many ABer actually.Many ABers like me and most of them find me entertaining.I never say anything horendous just a bit tohgue in cheek.AB would not be the same without me.Give it a week and everyone would be wanting me back saying it was boring without me.

[lady_p_gold]

Well I spend a lot of time on AB and I think that if you start banning people for good then it is a slippery slope. What is to stop them just coming back anyway as someone else? I never even notice the posts by this person and like others when I read all the posts in B & S I had no idea who you were talking about. It is not possible just to answer the questions you feel like answering and not answering the ones that you feel someone is not deserving of a reply? Its a bit like a child I suppose, ignore the bad behaviour and encourage the good. It is quite possible to be on here and answer lots of questions without ever getting involved in all this !!!

[whiffey]

I have an innate feeling for an underdog - which she certainly is - and that is why I lend 'support' (?).

In my view, there are several people, some long-standing, whose demeanour is far more crude and offensive. SR is nothing worse than a chucklehead. She occasionally goes OTT, but does not create deliberately crafted hurt.

[Octavius]

Strange as it may seem, I actually agree with Whiffey.

And my view also reflects upon what B00 said above about people stalking her to disrupt her threads with jittery nonsense questioning every Q&A that she has given on every forum that she has been in. Some people make it their life�s work to point out every detail of her supposed existence (abortion, bleeding, vivisection etc etc), follow her into forums on other website�s to �catch her out� or to trace who the real SR is and this just beggar�s belief.

Yes, she may ask some strange questions and not share the generic view of the mob, but she never offends me personally as most posts on AB are generally meaningless. What is posted on AB today is tomorrow�s chip shop paper (or something like that) so live and let live.

Hi SN and the rest of yous..x

I would recommend you ask her to leave - sexyairhead is actually the latest incarnation (sexyrussian/sexylesbian/sexywhatever....) - the previous aliases have been banned and I tend to keep our power of removing people once and for all for those who are actually trying to wreak havoc on the site.

From what I can tell, he/she is merely annoying and not nearly as offensive as some other's can be. Like all fads, just ignore the posts if you can and they will surely go away when you stop giving them attention.

Also, please don't name and shame, you only provide more arsenal to the one mentioned!

xxABED

[Octavius]

Whats that about Arsenal Ed?? Great team eh.

Not sure about the 'asking her to leave bit' and agree it is just merely annoying, but I doubt you will stop the feeders.

[kick3m0n]

Ooooh Mrs Ed, you coming out as a closet Gooner? I always knew there was something super duper about you :o)))
Octavius...term "feeders" made me laugh and I agree with you and whiffey to an extent. I did read something once that she said which was pretty offensive, but if you don't read, you can't be offended, can you? There have been one or two posts in recent months that have disgusted or offended me far more than SR has ever done.
There is some form of revelling in the whole SR circus that I find distasteful. As I said above, part therapy (some folk just seem to need a whipping boy/girl in their lives to take the angst out on) but others seem to spend an inordinate amount of time hunting her down, tripping her up, showing her to be a liar. WHO CARES???? (Answer? no one who has a life, surely??) So she lies, big hairy deal. So do countless other ABers on here, of that I've no doubt, that's the beauty of anonymity. I think the sense of moral outrage that follows her around, and the feeding frenzy of attack that goes on is pitiful and at times, repugnant. However, unlike Whiffey, I don't feel one iota of sympthay for SR, as this is a response she knows she'll get, and I suspect she enjoys any response, good or bad, a lot more than being ignored.

[Supernick]

Fair cop Ed. No more naming and shaming from me. Glad to see that it's being moitored though.

[4getmenot]

Nows your chance, she's back if you want to ask her to leave. :-)

[redcrx]

Not that she takes a bit of notice.
You didnt ask her 4getmenot i see

[Supernick]

No way. I'm making a stand now.

I do solemnly declare that I will never ever answer a question posted by SR, no matter what the subject matter or provocation, even if everyone else is just chatting on her thread.
