was the ion thread pulled- i certainly hope so... this is a great place to post about swimming not get into arguments which digress into name calling... there's enough rubbish on the 'net as it is... let's keep this place positive and enjoyable....
had to vent...
lots of love....
I think this is the first time a thread has been pulled. Last night it was still up but was Locked Out like the last 2 threads that Ion participated in namely "Enjoyed the Articles about us Ordinary People" and "Swimming Finals at the World Championships". Those two still appear in the Locked out format. I was going to respond to something and when I got home from swim practice last night it was locked out. I think it lasted just 2 days which is way shorter than the other two. What started as a "Where is Ion" no that is wrong the only thing I remember that started this was "come back little beza come back". It started out friendly, then became a mean game, turned into a battle, and then complete war. I did happen to see Sam Perry, Emmett Hines, and Cynthia posts and Ion's reply to them. I knew Jim and the moderators would this lock this out and real soon.
This action reminded me of some headline news today. Michael Powell and the FCC are taking action against certain broadcast infractions concering indecency in communications. There are house hearings next week that will put pressure on Networks to clear the air of any brodcast indecenency. Howard Stern was supended today and he joins Bubba the Love Sponge and Oppie and Anthony for their actions regarding this. So they are essentially locked out for the time being.
Michael Powell said "True and lasting change will only be achieved if the broadcast community recommits to is public service roots and its tradition of abiding by the community standards of decency".
