Administrator is banning things he doesn't agree with


Just so you know, the guy that runs this board is using his powers to try to ban people who post things critical of him or his cronies. he's for free speech until he doesn't like what is being said.

A comment from your location/network in another thread about Sheas/Seasons, the people who catered the Lecture Luncheon, is the reason you were banned.

What did they say?

Was it bad?

Was it worse than comparing a city commissioner to the fat little mayor on the Andy Griffith show?

You let that one go and that post was an insult to him and a discredit to this board.

If the administrator edits a post, he puts it on that thread and tells you he did.

The comment must have been really stupid, or slanderous, or violated the law, for him to have edited it.

That was a good show with a lot of good lessons.

I remember when Howard Sprague decided to go to Boca Raton, or wherever that was, but ended up coming back to Mayberry.

I've gotten the same message many times. Mr. Terrell must be a real thin-skinned wimp to resort to this to silence his detractors. Glad he wasn't elected to anything.

Hey, if the poster two up has been blocked many times as he says, then how is he posting.

Is he driving to all his families homes to plug into their internet so he can post. He must not have anything else to do.

So big boy, how are you posting if you're blocked.

You have not been silenced from putting this ridiculous message on here. As another poster said, "Bob Jr. did not run for any office."  If he does in the future I will vote for him. I wish he would run for office.

Why didn't he take off your message about how blindly we trust him if he is banning things he doesn't agree with? You don't have any idea about how bad you are making yourself look.  You and a few other persons have made yourselves look like a bunch of jerks.

Yeah Jr., you and Daddy look really bad because you're putting most of this bull on  here. Nothing on here is for the good of Corbin.

The last few posters are trying another old baiting tactic, change the subject, try and put the blame on you for exposing their problems and secret issues they tend to hide.

I would have expected some of these people to be a little more crafty in trying to trap you into saying something silly or in the end, discontinue this site.

The interesting part is the number of views these posts are getting, this means what you are doing is working, and quite well I might add.

Keep the Boards up, open and free.

Remember the people who are complaining are the very ones that are being looked at and scrutinized, there not use to that and having to operate in the Public eye.

Look for more Web Sites like this to pop up in the future!!

I see nothing wrong with anonymous posting even if it is with a proxy server. Anoymous IP addresses should not be banned. This post was made with a proxy server. Just because a proxy server is used does not mean the post is bad. It only means the the poster would prefer that others, including the board administrator, not know their identity. It is the content of the post that is important and the board administrator can always take care of the content if necessary. In fact, any time the board administrator believes that a post is inappropriate, whether it be toward him, his dad, a public official or anyone else, he has the right to edit or remove it and I support him in doing so.

This is NOT Bob or Bob Jr. posting here.

If you're that worried about your IP address, last poster, then maybe you're to important to be posting on here anyway. 

It's his board, and it's his rules.  If you or anyone else doesn't like it, then you're free to go somewhere else. Maybe you can sue the board Estep is wanting to install on his new $25 website for the city.  Oh, sorry, it won't have a message board, or much else for that matter.

You are exactly right when you say "its his board, and its his rules". And its his agenda too that is being promoted not a board being operated for the good of Corbin.

You do not care if the administrator knows your personal information since your posts show that you are enamored by the board family owners and subscribe to their point of view on everything.

If you just want a message board that slaps each other on the back and gives high fives when city leaders are insulted then by all means ban IP addresses.

If you want a message board that will allow a spirited exchange of ideas on both sides of an issue then keep the board free for posting.

Presently it is not.

If that is true why did he allow your criticism of him and his dad to be posted? I believe he has done a very good job of handling this message board.  There are some rules for message boards and he is following those rules.

There are a couple of you who would not be happy with anything about this board or website because you are jealous that it is drawing such a strong following.  Poor babies. The Terrells take their criticism from you and keep right on going.

"Allow your criticism"? First of all, do not make the assumption that every post that has been critical is from me.

From reading the board recently, I believe that there have been many different people posting. Some of the posts went beyond what I consider to be fair and I would have never made them.

There are many ideas that I share and agree with regarding the board administrator. For example, his original idea that the board should be open and people be allowed to express their opinions. Unfortunately, he has changed his mind and is taking steps to eliminate posting from people with another point of view.

"Allow your criticism"?  Do not be confused. The board administrator is banning IP addresses right and left. Sometimes it takes several attempts at changing IP addresses to submit a post. The post rejects and the message advises that the IP address has been banned. I often put that message in bold at the bottom of my post for all to see.

If the board administrator could, and he may eventually be able to, he would ban all IP addresses which he thinks are critical of his position. When he does, this board will just be for yes men.

I have made no personal attacks against anyone on this message board and would never do so. Someone else may be doing that but not me.

But make no mistake, the board administrator is not allowing criticism if he can block it before it gets posted.

My response was not directed at you. It was directed to the post  second above yours.

What kind of freak sits around all day looking at the IP addresses of everyone that posts trying to figure out who they are? That seems kind of sleazy.
