I knew a guy who was running a message board by himself for a while and was not making many friends while doing it. Anytime the rebels knew he was going to be out of pocket for a while they would destroy the board with spam and all kinds of crazy post.
If Tom is going to try to moderate that place by himself, he is going to be in trouble.

I very much would like to continue to bust Fitzmorris's chops over there. His posts already are starting to sound like a broken record. I'll be hanging out here for the foreseeable future.
Just because one knows food does not mean they know the internet. Tom is a very good example of that. Tom would do much better to contract out his web work and concentrate on what he knows best.

No, No No. You see Tom is having everyone take responsibility for their own words by having them sign their own name. No such shennanigans can take place if Tom happens to be on an Eat Club Cruise.

And we just thought that tf was fat and stupid. Turns out he had the solution all along. One question though, why do the posters on that website have handles listed instead of their names listed with their posts? I was under the impression that international law prohibitied anonymity...........................

Christ, I am scrolling TF's godawful message board and it is clear he hasn't had an original thought in the year and a half he's been absent from the internet. It is as if he went to Ridgley's blog and cut and pasted his responses to previously discussed subjects. I know all we are discussing is food on his site but I really can't wait until he goes postal on us about the Presidential election.

He wouldn't let me register as not bam bam. My account is still inactive. So much like E. Publius, I will be thwarting the Emperor using a pseudonym.
