Wait...I'm getting dizzy...Any particular reason you're asking if there was any particular reason kg1 had any particular reason for you inquiring?
I have no problem with INGO either...the only posts concerning the matter that should buy a poster a ban are the ones that are either veiled or unveiled threats of violence or death.I think INGO is just fine on this matter. take the butt hurt to the secret LEO forum UM made.
Wait...I'm getting dizzy...
I have no problem
...generally they are nothing more than opinion. I'll just voice my disagreement and move on.
I'm fairly content...
Not trying to be a male sexual organ here, but where have there been threats of violence or death? Admittedly, I only frequent the off topic section, but that seems the most likely place they would be voiced. Do you have an example of one?
Have you noticed any changes??
There have been some pretty distasteful posts. They were all deleted by management.
^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^ I READ, a lot, and post very little compared to some of YOU, and that is okay, I have no problem with that.... I don't remember everything, I read, 20-30 years ago, so sometimes, it is a good thing .... I RESPECT, a lot of YOU, on this forum, and the 50 + of YOU, that I have met, have ALL been GREAT, with ONE, exception ..... I don't even remember, who that was, made a purchase, and he didn't want to talk, or anything ..... and that is okay, too.... so let's REMEMBER, that this is AMERICA, and that Fenway, "owns" INGO, and HE, lets us "play" on, or in HIS territory, and I for one, ENJOY it quite a LOT !!!!! I have NEVER been on another forum, before, INGO, I was a ROOKIE, when I joined, and I learn something EVERY DAY... Everyone, play nice, cause, Fenway, can take his ball, and "go home" anytime he wants..... Lets ENJOY, what WE, have, thanks to Fenway, and the Mods, and NOT LOSE, this GREAT FORUM..... Just my Humble Opinion .....I'd bet that if the trash talk were to be eliminated a lot more of the members here would participate in the discussions.
As it is many are afraid to speak up for fear of reprisal by the haters.
And I've seen it happen exactly that way.
Some noob will chime in and give an opinion on a political topic and get his butt shot down in flames by the "experts" who think that they own the discussions here. The new person throws in the towel and never returns.
What good is a huge membership of people who don't participate because they don't want to be ridiculed by the "experts?"
There have been multiple posts in the past...probably before your time calling for the death of police officers. Most were dealt with as they popped up.Not trying to be a male sexual organ here, but where have there been threats of violence or death?

In another thread today there was this gem...a veiled call again for more deaths. Had the OP left out the part where he states he must keep his opinions to himself or risk being banned...then the post could have been taken as harmless. The way it's posted leaves no doubt in my opinion as to the meaning.

Not yet, you are still stirring the Pot....
That particular poster has a tack record of wishing death and destruction at his hand and at the hands of others upon the police. I'm sure you could sort through his other posts and find more of the same.As I said, I didn't see them. As they were since removed, it seems pretty impossible that you can direct me to them. The particular post you linked to is not descriptive enough for me to make any qualitative judgment. But I will reiterate, I do not condone wanton threats of violence. That includes a threat against law enforcement officers by civilians, or law enforcement officers against civilians.

No, actually I don't.See what I mean?!
Don't you think that not posting in a deragotory, rude or threatening manner would be a good start? This seems to be what ruins the majority of threads here.
I think that should be the only "rule".
Just sit back and watch who complains and moans about every little thing LEO-related, and you'll get an idea of where the issue is.
INGO already has rules in place to govern the behavior of it's membership. As members we agreed to abide by those rules.All well and good until someone decides that he doesn't like the CONTENT of the post and uses that to claim he doesn't like the TONE of the posts.

I don't believe I've ever witnessed a member being banned that didn't appear to be begging for it. Now granted...the banning may or may not have been precluded by multiple warnings...but the one or two that didn't were obviously a violation of those rules and clearly would have painted INGO in a light that no one that I know wants it to be associated with.
I'm well aware that people will disagree. And sometimes those disagreements will become heated. But if it cannot be done without threatening death or name-calling...then perhaps some individuals need to reevaluate the manner in which they disagree.
If an individual cannot go to another man's home (INGO) and behave in a civil and appropriate manner, then perhaps they should stay at their own home where they're free to behave however they wish.
I don't worry too much about out of control Mods banning anyone that doesn't deserve it. They appear to have a pretty good handle on it. We're not always going to agree with their decisions...I've got the infraction to prove it.
Secret LEO forum here? There is none...and I would know.I think INGO is just fine on this matter. take the butt hurt to the secret LEO forum UM made.
