First of all, whether you are immigrating from Soap Central, Lanteland, any other General Hospital discussion group - or just visiting - WELCOME. My purpose in starting this board is to give General Hospital fans a forum from which they can freely discuss the program. The discussion can be positive, negative, constructive, destructive - WHATEVER. I am the administrator and thus reserve the right to delete any post or ban any member for any reason personal or public to me. Having said that, I am a believer in letting the conversation flow freely - meaning that I am not going to interfere in conversations here unless I have something to say - or the discussion gets out of hand (I am open to appeal on these matters). If you posted with me as Tenaciousghfan at Soap Central, you understand that I am going to allow you to state your opinion or defend your said opinion as you deem fit. The only guidelines that I ask you to respect are the following: 1. No excessive profanity (I particularly don't like the "F" word - but if you feel you must use it please use it sparingly..). 2. No excessive bashing/ ad hominems of fellow posters (I understand that if a conversation gets heated, words will fly, but - remember - no one ever won an argument through name calling. Try to make your remarks constructive and provide valid and factual arguments to support your position). Character or actor bashing is permitted - within reason. Your personal opinion is your personal opinion. Try to introduce your thoughts as "In my opinion..." Please remember that I, your humble hostess, am the arbitrator of when the profanity or the bashing gets excessive. Let the discussion begin! I'm sorry I used Hell and S**t in another thread. (bleeped like that) I'm just so mad right now about non GH stuff. I could pitch one.

No problem - I asked posted to avoid EXCESSIVE profanity and bashing. In fact, I used the S-word in a post about cop woman....

I was using excessive profanity last night at home after 2 glasses of wine. I'm a Christian. But, sometimes....I get pretty pissed. So... I suck.

What! They banned you? I bet we are all next. I was banned for three months for simply mentioning that Oltl fans should probably post on their own board... True story. Oh, I can top that one! I just got a two month ban for alleged "actor bashing". So who did I "bash"? A GH actor? Nope. A OLTL actor? Nope. Justin Bieber. Yeah that's right. Someone who is NOT an actor (or actually a singer, for that matter) and certainly not on GH in either case. But this spamming troll who had been promoting himself as "the next big soap star" under 8 different aliases in one week was calling himself "bieberfan82" or something like that, and I made some snarky comment about how you know it's a troll post because Bieber's fans don't get out of grade school until 4:00. And that was why Lizard banned me. Is that nuts or what??

Frankly, I'm surprised I haven't been banned or suspended yet! I think the fact that they know I am a mod on another board may have something to do with it. But then too, I've almost stopped posting there and don't answer any posts made by the OLTL cheerleader section.
Oh, and hello everyone! I'm moblover at SC and would have signed in under that name here, but there was this handy little sign in with Google tab that I clicked before I thought about it, LOL.

Well I don't mod any other soap boards, but I've been moderating internet forums since the old dial up BBS boards of the early 90s, so I recognize the patterns of the crap that goes on over at Soap Central. And the escalation of that crap since the regime change at GH is no coincidence. There's a clear objective to supress any criticism of the regime's writing or any negative comments about the OLTL actors.
And the polls where Todd always win by a landslide? Well, as I always said in those threads, they were about as honest as that election in Florida in 2000.
Funny how such comments disappeared quickly........

Oh, lordy, I haven't even been online but a little over a year, lol. ;D
Yes there is obviously an agenda over there, and I agree that it was no coincidence with the timing. It's a shame though. The GH board could be brutal at times, lol, but there were so many really good debates!

There were wonderful debates over there before the soap SS (board's owner/ rabid post reporters/ out-of-control moderators) cracked down on free speech..
