Why did it take so long for my report re: Johnnyjr to be acted upon? Yeah, it was a Sunday, and yeah, more disruptive behavior (coincidently? LOL) seems to occur on weekends.  Certainly he was reported multiple times on Friday/Saturday "pre-JR" before his boot on Sunday. I suspect that immediately "jr" was born and went right back at it. That's when I reported. Monitoring?

However, if there were swift action when disruptive or violating posts were initially reported, they could review and monitor, issue a warning (which might be helpful - but is rarely done) - one that could ding not only the errant poster, but also the responder/enabler - monitor a little more, then act, and check back for a reincarnation a little later.

This, IMO, would be most favorable , and avoid a perception of "board control with an agenda".

I recognize this would be a greater burden on Agora. Personally, I wouldn't mind paying a small subscription fee to offset costs (and such a thing would probably stop the "undesireables" - would you pay 5 bucks a month for posting privileges?).

IMO, it all falls under the category of "do it right". Or more like "walk the talk" - they advertise that they perform monitoring.

So IF Agora can come up with a way to "do it right", that would be the best of all worlds IMO.

JMHOs,
