i think the problem doesnt wholly lie with trolls..
it lies with some of us...
who know these people are goddam trolls...
yet engage them in some great debate or slugfest of words..
take for instance... that john taylor thread
sayin black women are ugly...
why did anyone reply to that?
im sure if it hadnt been hurled in the trash it would probably be 3 pages long now...
if everyone thought the way i did....
it wouldnt get one reply...
obviously the person who posted this... did it to irritate... and cause... mayhem...
and confuson..
and thanks to some people it works all the time...
i mean maybe im too stoic... but if someone makes outlandish opinionated claims... which clearly is a wind up... and you know you dont fit into that category... why reply??!??
like you're hurt or affected
..
fuel for the fire i think...
...mmm my two cents
true indeed...i have to often remind myself of what you said.... self responsibility cures many dis-eases...

it is possible, i have seen it on another board, if they did it there, it can certainly be done here, the other board has about 10% of the features that this one has...

Whilst I agree with the "ignore" button in principle, I feel that could only work if the trolls post into an existing thread.
Please bear in mind most of these trolls start a thread themselves, therefore how do we stop them being members in the first place?

I'm guessing there isn't a way to stop them joining, but is there any mileage in having a new forum for threads started by new members/new posters - it could work on the basis that if you're a new member, or perhaps one that hasn't had many posts, then any new topics you start will first only be allowed in this new 'Potential Foolishness' forum until one of the mods had time to check it out and decide its legit, it could then be better placed in one of the other forums...? All members could then still check out the posts in the forum if they wanted to, but it would be much easier to avoid the sort of crap we've been subjected to...?

I agree with what Lucas said, but of course not everyone feels that way so it wont be happening.
Dont c why we should have to make it extra hard for us Black people to get together cause of white ppl
Not feeling the questionnaire idea at all  -but it will be discussed im sure.

Lady Vee: i've just given my view to the other moderators for consideration, however I feel that i do need to remake the same point that Bluehoney made earlier. That villagers here as grown adults also need to take some responsibility. This is not back in the day when we clearly didn't know better.. and would automatically fall, hook, line and sinker for the ramblings of some troll.. We know better yet some posters still persist on responding to these idiots..why?
Further and I've said this before too, we have a few Black people here who clearly behave badly yet some villagers DEFEND and SUPPORT these people.. Now come on, its a bit hard to be banning arsehole Europeans, when I can see Black behaving in an even worse manner..so come on now people we need some personal responsibility here...
Last point Lady Vee: unless we make this subscription only, i cannot see how we could ban people along the lines you suggest, it just wouldn't be possible..

@All
These troll will always pop up from time to time they are nothing to fear or worry about. What you should do is focus on the people that agree with them because you really have to read between the line at what they write. These trolls often come here trying to appear intelligent and slowly pull you in and in doing so they can expose the demons amongst us that agree with them wholeheartedly and these demons are both black and white in reality.
So forever be observant to protect what is ours!

@KunJuFu
...LOL...
***Shakes head***
Yep...!!!
Amazing...
*S*
To watch the descent into the abyss...
*S*
...LOL...
There's a thread which I've been watching and pursuing... albeit.. on the DL...
*S*
But...
*S*
...Let's leave that for another day...
*S*
Methinks one of the pivotal points was when you and yours collective chose to sit around on your collective asses and allow vermin to refer to one of us "...a prize c*nt..."
...ROFL...
And... in continuation of thread of which I've been pursuing... which again raises the question in respect of the ownership... and allegiance of the owners and financial backers of this site...
***Shakes head***
For it seems that your allegiance allows pseudos who have pretended to be "black"... despite their "confession" to being otherwise... to continue to post...
*S*
Like I've said previously...
*S*
...Many pretend to consciousness...
But... true consciousness... especially from a truly African perspective... is almost non-existent... even in those who are of African birth or parentage...
So...
...An all AFRICAN site... for all AFRICAN people...
...LOL...
Put it this way... you have neither the wherewithall to enforce that ethic electronically... much less spiritually and culturally...
*S*
...LOL...
Come... argue the point with me...
*S*
Because... my arguements would prove a very interesting case... once I finish my research...
Ijexa
P.S.
...LOL...
Pssssttt...
...Where's Ashanti...?
*S*

@All

Hmmmmmmmmm...?
***Shakes head***
Gonna have some fun with this... perhaps the Moderators will gather their collective balls and muster the courage to make a reply to the series of questions which I have asked...
"...said vermin continues to seemingly post with total impunity... ridiculing and being abusive towards Africans with complete freedom...
...I posed the question before... why do Moderators allow this to go unchallenged... almost as if it is their expressed intention to promote the abuse of Africa and Africans by any and all vermin...
...The stated intention of this site... in line for your alleged policy... is about the promotion of US by US with no toleration for who have no respect for us... then your actions... or lack... on this thread... speaks volumes... since the end result seems to be to send out the wrong kind of message... especially when a member has requested your assistance and help...
...Moderators are meant to be the first and most important line of defence... and if that fails... whether through ineptitude or deliberately through a wish to preserve a "white" level of input... then that brings into question the entire modus operandi of the site and that of the Moderating team..."
*S*

You don't have a different view on things, you're being offensive and that is very different from just having a different opinion. You can disagree with someone without being offensive, something a coconut like you will never understand. And no, you are not black, you are a redneck in a black person's body. Why don't you take yourself to stromfront where you'll find that "different views" like yours are more than welcome.
If that's the case then this forum is got to be a most prejudiced place on earth!

Ijexa: There you go again with the double talk, I know you were upset about what appeared to be an Advert from Channel 4, I investigated that claim and posted an explanation.. If you do not accept it fair dos..
But since then however you have been in and out with these allegations that make no sense to me whatsoever.. and quite frankly your comments last night is NOT on.. So heres the deal I will meet with you personally and you can tell me to my face that 'i'm a sellout' I'll come to you.. then you can prove to me just how right you are?
If memory serves we live in the same area so there will be no excuse, i will also send this as a PM therefore you cannot say you never saw this..
Sorry Ijexa but you now need to come harder that dropping inuedos and start producing facts and now not even prepared to do this online, you can this do my face... NOT HAVING IT!!!

That would only work if they were here for honest discussion instead of trying to patronise. Seriously what do you think you can teach the person calling himself John Taylor? (if he is indeed white) he wasn't interested in learning he only came here to spout rubbish and cause mayhem and in the process disrupt normal discussion and worst get the site closed...
I'm not familar with John Taylor but I wouldn't want to "teach" him anything, I would challenge him on his argument and with 99.9% of White people their argument is that Black people are genetically inferior to White people, he would have to prove this and to this point no White person ever has.
White people do what Self-hating Black Sellouts do and that's underestimate Black people. They actually do think we are inferior and when we challenge them they get upset and want to make it personal and look up dirt on you and want to do Google searches to descredit you and alter your picture and want to run and hide and beg people not to listen to you.
Like someone suggested we can't really tell who's a White Supremacist or who's a Black Self-hater so how can we really start "banning" people ? And with clearly 90% of all Black people thinking of the Black Race as inferior what happens if they all gang up on say a Real Brother or Real Sista' and ban us ?
No, we must simply force them to leave with facts and logic.
No Sellout.

I agree with you Chubb. Racists are NOT our enemy, they usually don't like to interact with Blacks they don't want to date and marry and live with and teach us etc. Its not the Racists we need worry about its' the White Supremacists and Sellouts and Black Self-haters who live with and among us.
Let's not allow a vocal few to deter us from the Self-haters, White Supremacists and Idiots who are plentiful and moving about in Stealth mode.
No Sellout.

i ground with my own at blacknet
and see it as a weakness and not a strength in any african who feels the need to communicate with the race that organised and still organises our oppression
when we are not ourselves organised enough to effect overt political change on our shared political/economic condition
which would move us qualitatively away from the slave/colonial legacy that still haunts us
malcolm said " there can be no black/white unity until there is first some black unity"
decades later those words are still true
but
soo many african posters feel uncomfortable about isolating whites from their business
so
so let blacknet continue as usual
when the mass become more politically aware
less and less white posters will live beyond 10 posts
unapologetic african power now

Real Brother here.
Garvey had posted a link to a story about a White Racist who had killed someone. He was trying to argue that we need to be afraid of Whites who monitor the site because they may use the words posted here as justification for violence against Blacks.
His argument is silly as ignoring Whites and banning them and not allowing them to make their case and present their argument will simply cause them to ACT OUT in frustration.
No the fact that Racists hate us that much that they would kill us is all the more reason to allow them to air their beefs in this forum rather then sticking a middle finger up at them causing them to become even more angry.
Not every problem needs to be hidden or swept under the rug and White people have run this Country and indeed this world for Centruries if indeed Black people are gonna stop hating each other and this threatens White Racists then we need to talk about it with White Racists.
Trying to ban them is NOT gonna make them love us, its not gonna make them less Racist. No we have to at least try to reason with these people, OK they hate us so what ? We supposed to let them kill us as a result of their hatred of us ?
That's stupid we MUST try to end their threat by getting them to understand us.
No Sellout.

Garvey had posted a link to a story about a White Racist who had killed someone. He was trying to argue that we need to be afraid of Whites who monitor the site because they may use the words posted here as justification for violence against Blacks.
His argument is silly as ignoring Whites and banning them and not allowing them to make their case and present their argument will simply cause them to ACT OUT in frustration.

When have racists ever needed justification for violence against blacks? Make them angry and act out in frustration? Angry about what? And who cares if they get angry?
I agree they shouldn't be banned. But not because we're afraid they might get upset. And forget "trying to reason" with racists. There are plenty of liberal, progressive whites who are beginning to realize that the capitalist power structure doesn't give a damn about the white working class any more than they do us. Who needs to "reason" with racists?
Some of us no longer care what racists think or might do, cuz we already know. Let them post all they want, I don't even read their shyt becuz I ain't interested in anything they got to say.

These troll will always pop up from time to time they are nothing to fear or worry about. What you should do is focus on the people that agree with them because you really have to read between the line at what they write. These trolls often come here trying to appear intelligent and slowly pull you in and in doing so they can expose the demons amongst us that agree with them wholeheartedly and these demons are both black and white in reality.
So forever be observant to protect what is ours!
i ground with my own at blacknet
and see it as a weakness and not a strength in any african who feels the need to communicate with the race that organised and still organises our oppression
when we are not ourselves organised enough to effect overt political change on our shared political/economic condition
which would move us qualitatively away from the slave/colonial legacy that still haunts us
malcolm said " there can be no black/white unity until there is first some black unity"
decades later those words are still true
but
soo many african posters feel uncomfortable about isolating whites from their business
so
so let blacknet continue as usual
when the mass become more politically aware
less and less white posters will live beyond 10 posts
unapologetic african power now
@Breadfruit
You are so spot on when you said the following
"soo many african posters feel uncomfortable about isolating whites from their business"
This thread in particular
http://www.blackchat.co.uk/theblackforum/forum3/11646.html
is a perfect example of one it does go on a bit but nevertheless the underlying message is extremely evident. If you do browse through the link notice how this person in question got defensive from the start. Normally I would not waste my precious energy on this person but enlight of this thread and the other entitled white invasion that I was aware of before I thought it might be interesting to see how far this troll lover would go and my inital suspicions did not fail me.
The only thing I would add to your comments is that the trait of these people are usually that of quick to tarnish blacks all with the same negative brush. Also to add there are simply some amongst us that we must never unite with but infact should be the first to eliminate once given the chance. I kid you not the white man has done his work successfully on these type or should I say KIND of people.

@Ebony_Goddess
Do you really think that if the mods meant this site to be for only Africans from the Continent they would place other nationality flags in the Emoticons section
       
Such a few to show you.

Real Brother here.
Omosh, I agree only to a point. Like it or not Whites are living with us in society and we can't simply ignore them. I'm saying if they have a point to make or an axe to grind we should give that the same consideration that we give a Self-hater of a Sellout.
I'm simply saying we should hold White people be they White Supremacists or Racists to the same standard that we would hold anyone else to. Running from them or treating them speical is like admitting they're Superior and they aren't.
No Sellout.

@KunJuFu
Hmmmmmmmm...?
***Rubs Chin***
Inuendo...?
...Moi...???
*S*
Never...!!!
Hmmmmmmmm...?
***Scratches head***
Well... let's have a look at your advertising stream... and... aha... we see at the forefront some of the most pro-African organisations out there...
...Sky...
...Abbey National...
*S*
And...
*S*
...Channel 4...
So... it is not inuendo when I can state in all reality that the people who hold the purse-strings are some of the most racist and anti-African corporations out there...
...LOL...
Unless you are going to try and convince that Murdoch et. al. are working tirelessly for the spiritual... cultural and economical rehabilitation of Africa and Africans...
*S*
But just to let you know... that my research continues apace... perhaps you would good as to explain to me the significance of the following and the particular route that allowed to find this site:
*S*
http://www.intermix.org.uk/
AIMS & OBJECTIVES
To offer friendship,support, information and advice to Mixed-Race individuals, their families and carers, racially mixed couples and trans-racial adoptees.
To explore the mixed-race experience and to ensure that both Mixed-Race individuals, families and society at large have access to balanced and sensitive portrayals of racial duality.
To highlight the marginalisation and racism faced by Mixed-Race individuals and racially mixed families living in the UK.
To help Mixed-Race individuals explore all of their heritage.
To bring Mixed-Race individuals together to explore the concept of racial identity.
To keep Mixed-Race individuals and other interested parties informed of Mixed-Race issues, events and social gatherings.
To promote a positive attitude between and towards Mixed-Race individuals, their families, racially mixed couples and trans-racial adoptees.
To publish a regular newsletter, highlighting media coverage, members letters and any other relevant information on the Mixed-Race experience and the world at large.
To highlight the achievements of Mixed-Race individuals in society.
Intermix is a learning organisation because:
There is a need for Mixed-Race individuals to learn as much as possible about themselves and how they want to be perceived by society.
There is a need for parents of Mixed-Race children to understand the diverse cultural needs of their children and to try and find as much information as possible to help them provide their children with a balanced cultural upbringing.
There is a need to try and educate racially mixed couples about the potential obstacles they may encounter when raising a Mixed-Race child.
There is a need for parents of Mixed-Race children who are isolated for whatever reason to feel that there is an organisation that can provide understanding, support and offer advice.
Intermix would like society to further understand that Mixed-Race individuals are an assimilation of more than one culture, being influenced as such means that they have needs that cannot be addressed entirely by any one community.
Having both cultures should be seen as an asset and welcomed by society as a step forward towards one nation living together in harmony.
*S*
Ijexa
P.S.
*S*
Of course... I look forward to meeting with yourself... and any of the other esteemed members of the BN team... after I finished publishing my research of course...
...Au revoir...Last edited on Monday May 30th, 2005 14:27 by

@Twang
Hmmmmmmmmm...?
Found your statement(s) on the Calisto thread quite interesting, especially the comment about vermmin bragging about having dated fifteen "black" women a year...
Hmmmmmmmmm...?
Perhaps if you would be so good to post the URL in question... unless of course it is one of those threads which have been removed in order to cover-up when vermin has slipped and revealed its true colours...
Hmmmmmmmmm...?
***Scratches head thoughtfully***
Perhas we could even get a second opinion from some of the BNV...
@SoooFresh
...LOL...
Hi "Sis"...
*S*
How ya doing...?
You and the little pooch doing fine...?
*S*
...Adios...

Ijexa: Ok so now I partly understand you're beef, to begin with there are a number of points I think i need to make, so that you're clear about a few thinks... However let me star by saying naturally the owners of this site (the WHOLE Site and not just THIS Village), takes revenue from white Business... Obviously I'm not going to sit here and pretend that SKY, Abbey National or the sub contractors producing programmes to be shown on C4 are Pan Africanist...To be honest i don't think I ever pretended to suggest otherwise but you can point MY personal CONTRADICTION if i did give that impression I look forward to that..
However whilst I acknowledge the obvious contradictions you point out what it does do is address the obvious questions or the obvious problem which you do not seek to ask or address. First point is as far as I'm aware THIS is NOT a white OWNED site, that is my personal WORD on the subject, taking money from a white source does not mean that BLACKNET is WHITE owned..you are adding two and two and making five sorry..
However that does not say that you don't have a point, however I cannot and will not tell BLACKNET owner (who btw are 100% black unless they've improved on plastic surgery without my knownledge)..That they should not accept funding ANY funding because it is white, when I Work for Europeans in a different capacity.. clearly that would be hypocrital.. The FACT is we are in ENGLAND the FACT is many of us like it or NOT work for Europeans in private or public organisations, so my point is does that MAKE all these black people Sellouts? Does this mean that every Black person employed by a European organisation a controled stooge of the White person, do we automatically adapt out position to suit white opinion because of this?
Come on now Ijexa, I thought you were better than that, I really did...you cannot be serious.. So here's my point to you're obviously looking at the advertisers and ASSuming that I and the other MODs are tailoring our positions to meet thier sensibilities HOW insulting..
Look Ijexa you won't meet with me fine, then do this for me contact every MOD on BLACKNET Village at your leisure, ASK them how we work, who decides what, BUT most importantly ASK them if they have EVER and i mean EVER been given and order, direction, persuasion ANYTHING to Moderate this Village in the way you accuse us of doing ASK them... You won't take it from me fine ASK Backatya, ASK ladyday, ASK happiness, ASK anyone you like ....
These are the FACTS Ijexa, we are all UNPAID, I repeat UNPAID... We do this because because we love this place... Nobody is directed to work certain hours or specific hours, Nobody has EVER been directed to MAKE this a WHITE friendly site or one that lends itself to Multiculturalism sorry but you're way of base..
I will also say before god, that as the founder Moderator, I have NEVER and I repeat this for you NEVER been asked, directed or TOLD how to Moderator this Place it is done by consensus..The other Moderators will BACK this up.. I Still have the original PM to from Admin asking me to be a moderator to PROVE this.. in fact I have ALL, i repeat ALL my PM's since this place opened.. They will prove without a shadow of a doubt that what I'm saying is a fact? I can also say that we have our own MOd forums all 63 of them to date that will underline this FACT!!!
What YOU are NOT understanding is that those AIMS & Objectives you printed were written BEFORE the Village began, and has NOTHINg to do with how WE manage this VILLAGE.. we are NOT guided by them and we certainly were not INFLUENCED by these guidelines.. The owners did not influence OUR guidelines or our ACTIONS here on Blacknet.. We the Moderators with the influence of the Villages drew up the policy and the direction of BNV... If you remember it was you who instructed us to stop guests starting topics, and to restrict their rights, I listened and asked for this to happen..
What YOU are doing Ijexa, is again adding two and two and coming up with what ever answer suits your hypothesis... You're looking at recent events and ASSuming by the advertising on this board that the TWO are LINKED... What I would have PROVED had you had the balls to meet with me FACE to FACE, is that you're wrong.. What I'm Telling you is whatever feeling you may have about how this place is financed... You do not have the right to QUESTION my integrity or the sincerity or hardwork of the MODERATOR team without the FACTS and you don't have them..
There are reasons for the recent events like Ashanti and others you are picking up on, but I cannot for obvious reasons discuss these on a OPEN forum, AGAIN if you HAD the courage of you're convictions and MET with me I would be happy to TELL you exactly what is what!! If you had good intentions then that is what I would have expected, I stand by my words and ACTIONS hence my willingness to MEET with you face to FACE as man to put you straight on your confusion... I thought you were a man but obviously i was wrong...However I have once again put the FACTS and my views to your thoughts..I await your response..
Ps..The issue of funding is an issue that concerns us, and it has been discussed however all roads lead to making this a subscription only site..if I felt that is what people wanted or would contribute to trust me I would fight for it in a heartbeat..however until then we make do with what we got in a world of contradiction or until someone suggests a better idea..

***Shakes head***
A good... if perhaps belated response... a reply without any holes that I can pick in it on any basis without being at least partially subjective...
Hmmmmmmmm...?
...Will give a proper... most fullsome reply later this week... perhaps even by PM...
But... am quite happy so far...
*S*
...Once item crossed off list of objectives...
*S*
Another three thousand to go...
...LOL...
Take care...

| hello all. There are a lot of people here who've been posting for months/ years. surely some of them like jett black and others could be made mods. this site is too large and important to have so few mods. the more mods around the quicker these threads can be deleted and posters banned. this was a rpoblem at BET's forums which allowed trolls to florish with community encouragement from debating the filth. too many forums no mods at all really. you should know Tkal that no matter what facts you hit them with they don't want to be confused with facts and will stick around arguing forever. it's what a troll by defination does.

Real Brother here.
I'm not buying that Nubian. There are always gonna be a "few" trolls but still we can't allow them to deter the truth. These people don't like the truth its like Kryptonite to Superman. Truth would have run the kids off of BET.com but not enough Real Brothers and Sista's stood up and stayed allowing the Idiots, Self-haters and White Supremacists to take over.
No, if we stand strong and overwhelm them with logic and attack them when they make DUMB points then they will go away on their own. No one likes losing even Idiots, Self-haters, Sellouts and Whites Supremacists (and Trolls).
No Sellout.
