At least you're aware. Thank you.
Ted, your posts in the various forums are consistently non-productive. While there may be a handful who come here to read such contrarian nonsense, I assure you the majority do not. Maybe you could find something else with which to occupy your time?
Simon Mall security officers are not armed. Even if they were, they would be so with the approval of the property owner. We want LEO's, and properly trained security, to carry openly in shopping malls. There is a reason for them to do so. We don't want civilians doing so. Learn the difference, Ted. At any given time, there are likely 100 or more civilians carrying concealed in Circle Center Mall and that's exactly how we want it.
Wrong movie. Some nerd you are...humphYou don't count. Robocops aren't technically human anymore.
We are. And we are probably more aware due to some helpful reported posts (we really do read and track them).
Removing someone from the site for displaying behavior that could be defined as trolling is one of the more difficult areas we deal in. We sometimes err on the side of caution for fear of being too harsh and coming down on someone simply for a difference of opinion. We want people to feel like they can share their opinions here regardless of what they are, as long as they can do it in a manner that is courteous to others.
If we establish a pattern of trolling behavior we will all discuss it and act on it when we feel it is appropriate.
then you haven't spent enough time at 10th and Rural... at least I think they were guys.....

Two thoughts for you.
1. There is no excuse for open carry in a mall. None.
2. Circle Center recently installed a credit card reader in one exit lane of all garages. In the one attached to the Convention Center, it's the one on the far right to exit onto Georgia St.
And there are plenty who are happy to call him that in a public thread, even though name-calling is specifically against the rules and is a much more cut-and-dried issue. Should the mods ban them, too? By my count, half the posters in this thread should be banned already.
I very much disagree with banning someone simply for having an unpopular opinion.
But there's a pretty clear one against name-calling, so please be more careful.
In response to Rookie's assertion, this pretty much sums it up. Its not that we don't look at such reported posts, but the area of "trolling" is one of the most vague we deal with.
