Banned

[Patrick]

Since I would de-list any agency where I find any nude photos, I've banned Batman.  He was obviously using the board for promotion, and since his site has nudes on it, he's gone.

I have read some of the comments below, and I feel the moderator should be supported in this decision.

First, there are only six simple rules to this Message Board.  To see the rules go to “Forum FAQ” and scroll to the bottom of the page.  The primary purpose of this board is to support men looking for wives.

The moderator doesn’t needs to give anyone warnings or lengthy explanations to ban someone.  He has a life beyond babysitting Planet Love and the burden shouldn’t be on him to give extra consideration to little morons who can’t read.  On balance, in the past, he has been too tolerant to destructive posters.

The second consideration is that anything that even has the appearance of promoting prostitution will have a tangible degrading effect on the environment for men looking for wives.  Fortunately, the moderator recognizes this and apparently cares more than others.  The reality of this will become apparent to some of you after you have married a stranger from Colombia and a few months later she cleans your clock in a divorce court.

My thoughts on this are probably what most men think. All of us would probably would like to live the Hugh Hufner style of living for a short period of time. This is what Batman did for many of us, giving us the fantasy, not the reality of life in Colombia. In fairness to Patrick, this is his board and his rules should be followed. I have been posting for several years now and everyone on here knows the rules.  Remember, gentlemean, reality and the Batman's life style are two different scenes.  I want to find a wife that i would be proud of in church and as a step-mother to my children. We can dream

I liked Batman but I can't argue with Patrick's decision. I just wish that some people got a warning before being banned. Batman broke the rules but he seemed down to earth and never spit venom at anyone despite being criticized. He probably would have shaped up his posts if he had a warning. Other people, like Hans Erich, didn't deserve a warning. He was a venom-spitting nutcase and a warning would have done him no good.

I know recently there were a few topless shots on LatinEuro.  I thought Batman's shots went only as far as topless.  If so, are you going to ban LatinEuro or have they removed the few topless shots.

Personally, I think Batman deserves a chance to come back minus the self-promotion.  He was starting to conduct business on the forum itself which I think is wrong.  I also think topless shots should be allowed by the agencies.  This is an international forum and in many European countries that's nothing.

Steve,
You have to be carefull making that type of comparison.It might get a different result than you intended.I thought Latin Euro was a fun site to browse,even if Ted says its a total loser to try and use.I guess I can still find them.
Also reminds me of a Colombiana I posted about trying to get a student visa at the US embassy in Bogota.They tell her we know you will just stay there.She tells them if I wanted to do that I could do it on the tourist visa I already have.They say,hey,you're right.They took her tourist visa,tore it out of her passport.
I remember when I was a kid,my cousin got a job working at a fruit packing place that he was supposed to be 16 to work there.Another guy he knew applied,they said  you have to be 16.The guy says what about John E,he is not 16.John gets fired over it.He wanted to kick that guys butt every time he saw him.

Sorry.  Save your link to that banned agency in your files somewhere.  I won't even dare speak their name again.  That wasn't what I expected would happen, but at least they are getting treated the same way as our ex-superhero.

He just deleted the latineuro listing from the agency listings. Their site is still up and running. Patrick has no power over that. So. . . . if you enjoy browsing that site. . . . .go ahead.

Anyway you look at it. Somebody on this board posted a link to my ex-wife's nudy website and Patrick never banned him. Sure it's alright to post links to nudy websites when they are trying to embarass Calipro but not when batman wanted to rent a couple of rooms out.

I say bring them all back! Batman , Aaron, Hounddog and all the rest (even that crazy german guy, I can't remember his name).

Who else is tired of living under harsh sensorship?

I did not agree with who ever posted the site to your ex. In fact it kinda
pissed me off alittle and if that person would have been banned, well he
would deserve it I feel!

It was Hans wasn't it?  He did step on some toes, but I would like to know how his internet method panned out.  Diversity breeds stability folks!

It's only 'censorship' if the government does it. If Patrick (or any other non-government board manager) does it it's 'right to control editorial content'. I'll agree it was a low blow (and was purposely intended to injure/embarrass you) to post the link to your X, but I can't remember who did it.

I've deleted the latineuro listing.

Topless photos were just one reason that "showcase of horrors" wasn't worthy of your site. "Showcase of horrors" is how one brasileira described it to me; she never gave permission to be listed in the first place, and has repeatedly asked to be removed, to no avail. She even went into depression after her photo appeared there, because she appears on a page between two topless women, and she is a very modest type of person. The guy who runs LE is an unscrupulous bag of dirt.

Just shoot'em in the back when they're not looking.

So now I'm curious. On a scale of one to ten, how close am I to getting banned?
