This model of internet comment is becoming unviable, if the comment is to be within the law at all times as well as the bounds of good taste.
In that context, the unreasonable sense of entitlement displayed by a growing minority of Registered Users is very apparent.
There is a sense that they can just register under a pseudonym, pay nothing towards the upkeep of the site or towards an insurance against libel matched by a total lack of any attempt to even understand – let alone accept – that we have a right, and a duty, to administer this site in accordance with the law and in the interests of everyone who uses it.
I feel it’s an injustice a good guy like Ebz can get punished for a once-off throwaway comment yet Boycott consistently uses derogatory terms for the Jewish community without sanction.
Do it right so. Paid registrations, limit multiple log ins from same ips etc. Access to paid members only. It’ll pay tbe bills without you losing control. But if bans are gonna be there, same for everyone. HBV has got a worse doing than steven avery at this stage.
