Why is Flightfool still on Acorn

He has put yet another link to an outside auction.

Are the mods on holiday or does the team need expanding?

etc.

also is there a 'ruling' on TM names here - I know there was a thread http://www.acorndomains.co.uk/genera...rn-yes-no.html about it, but is it being enforced?

Them links, 1 takes you to Flightfools profile and 2 take you to threads not related to Flightfool ?

However I have noticed Flightfool posting even more cr*p

rob · 21-05-2010, 12:32:19 PM

Yeah the other ones are spam as well and have reported posts etc

Since Lee Owen got banned the spam threat level has dropped from critical to low so response times may well take longer!

I see, I thought you was just referring to Flightfool but you mean in general.

Are you saying I should ban links to Sedo and other domain auction sites? A lot of people here post those.

I know it's annoying when someone posts poor quality names but can't you just add him to your ignore list? Otherwise how do I fairly judge if people have names "worthy" of Acorn Domains?

I'm all for keep the forum UK focused and quality content, I just need to apply rules fairly.

Don't mind links to Sedo or for TLD domains but that's all Flightfool does, he never contributes to the site, did he even post in the introductions section to begin with ?

Seems like he is using this forum for his own personal gain and not helping anyone else.
