I wanted to start this thread for our esteemed friend CasualObserver. I know he will jump in with both feet on this! Robert Slager, the King the Wareham Pravda, has instituted a new policy (Thanks to my dear wife) for posters to his forum:
On the suggestion of the esteemed Ms. Lilly, Observer Media will now present a continuous forum for reader comments. The site will be fully moderated, which means at times there will be a slight lag for comment approval. As long as people remain civil, truthful, and don't defame anyone, all comments will be approved (that is the standard for all reader comments under all posts). Spam messages on the same subject will also be prohibited. Anyone who repeatedly violates these terms of service will be banned from the site, with a prorated amount of their remaining subscription returned to them.
I won't spend much time talking about the sheer madness of this new rule, but I want to point out a few things.
1. If Slager is deciding who is truthful, then the whole concept is broken.
2. Defame anyone? well, I'll leave that for Casual to explain.
3. Civil is relative.
Now, what we have here is a complete farce. Slager, who wouldn't know the truth if it walked up and slapped him, moderates a forum where he decides if the comments are truthful and censors what people have to say (except Paul Shooter).
Okay....everyone can now laugh.

it appears as long as my posts are not directed to him, questioning his statements, or his reporting, or researching, or love for wareham, or asking him questions over and over to get an answer, or talk about the bos and ita withholding public records(dvd), and having a public record disappear(book with pic of my daughter and other kids) then he will post my comments.. funny how he claims FREEDOM OF SPEECH MATTERS IN THIS COUNTRY surrounding the ovm issue but he supresses my right to FREE SPEECH IN THIS COUNTRY..
just a fyi he has complained many time that the standard times would not let him post comments and how bias they were isnt this a prime case of THE POT CALLIN THE KETTLE BLACK!!!

If anyone wants to bring a complaint about the new Ragserver Media policy to the new Ragserver Media office, do they get a seat on the bowl, or do they have to stand in the bath tub?
