A notice to everyone - and especially the "ladies" that tried to cause distress to the ladies in this community:

I am sure that you (the 5 that got banned) can read this thread since it is open to guests. Hence this message is for you:

I have recorded what you said and when you said it. I also recorded your IP and your email addresses.

I had email discussions with both Yahoo (the emails) as well as the University of Stanford in Chicago. Also I emailed your ISP's and most of them have responded.

This is the deal then: Stay out of here and go to the forum that you are regulars. There you can talk about this forum but you are not allowed to be in here. I know which one it is and rest assured that if you do this again I will push this as far as it goes with any action necessary to ensure the happines of the members of this community.

As for all the current members that even consider causing trouble just to fill their miserable lives: Our family here has no place for you. Hence if you are considering a similar stunt, better leave now - you have been warned.

What you did was pretty serious and it does have grounds for legal action against you. We have tracked you down and we CAN take actions against you for grievance caused to the members here. If I am to ask for written proof from the girls here I am sure I am going to get loads and loads of replies, hence it is going to get really messy for you.

Well said Pebbles,

I know from previous boards that the best treatment is to ignore them. That's the ultimate insult to the because they WANT your attention.

I always have and will treat them like they don't exist

Oh boy.. I've seen that stuff ( "Do not feed the trolls" petitions) on other sites. I never thought I'd see them in this forum! If Nikos tracked them down and slammed the brakes it must be terribly serious, because I've never seen him T'd off.

But I'm just as curious as poor ngaa (girl, I'm w/ you there on the curiousity
laugh.gif
) on what caused such a stir!! since it's been deleted, oh well.....
 
OK. All I can say that there was a lot of *****iness (pardon the French -as they say) against the members of this community. Some of the posts were directed to members with comments about their hair routines and in short putting them down. A lot of members were really disturbed by this.

The reason that I got pissed of so much is that some of the girls here are putting a serious effort to feel pretier than they already are by wanting to achieve long beautiful hair. We are not all blessed with the perfect hair style so some of you want something which takes time, patience, money, and determination. Nobody is allowed to devalue this efford and this is what I disapprove.

A lot of the girls (if not all) are very sensitive about their hair and they come to this community to get advice and share with all of us their joy (the hair routine works perfect) or their sorrow (something went wrong). For me devaluing this efford and not being able to respect this need to share your thoughts is a crime.

Yup, she sure did. Vevster doesn't mince words. She just comes in, hits the delete key, and CASE CLOSED.

Wow...miss a few days and you miss a lot! Whatever happended, I am glad that the "family" survived and is doing well.

So true about not feeding trolls. I have left many a discussion group because of them.

Thanks guys.
 
I really can't overstate how happy I am to have effective moderators and administrators like the ones here. There are so many boards where the community is reduced to trolls or, at best, members who have no respect for anyone but themselves.

Thank LHCF staff!

I missed it all thanks to a hectic week of one exam after the other but I'm glad things are back to ship shape. Thanks to everyone and long live the LHCF

What if you banned someone who was misunderstood and shouldn't have been banned?
 
There was nothing to be "misunderstood" about those chicks.
They were all insane in the membrane!

MissJ, I'm sure those persons could email the administration and clear up the misunderstanding in a mature fashion.
