I don't really care to verify who is telling the truth since it's all hearsay without screenshots. I do, however, appreciate you having the balls to stand up for yourself here, Leslie.
Can you kindly tone down on the Veteran's day parade? Some vets don't seem all that behind it. I would much rather the time spent through community service or donations to show real appreciation.
Your post on disabled gamers, that I can support. I watched the video, that young man lives a very full life.
I can agree with this.

What's your point? Of course I know about the site. We run a no drama no zerg guild, I've used the site for info on scumbags for years.... I have pretty tough skin. its all good
This I don't really understand......you mean you use it to identify people you might want to avoid or keep an eye on in game? Or do you mean you used it for *detective work for turbine*? Imho even if your strongly against exploiting in the game, I don't think any player should have to take on themselves the job of trying to police the game that way. Thats *turbines* job, things like people who constantly try and rip other people off by dishonest dealings, abusing honour systems like rolls, yeah.
Exploits is turbines problem, if I have an issue with people doing an exploit I will talk to them first about it. Running to turbine to rat imho is the last resort even if I go there, and thats even with people I can't stand for personal reasons and would want to see punished......... I don't know, maybe its a cultural thing, some issues that we would consider *minor* we would solve internally before running to outside authority.
I stayed in boys dorms in high school and yeah it would get pretty rough at times. If we had problems with people stealing we would confront the thief ourselves or if that didn't work get the head boys and seniors involved. Someone might get a black eye but you would get your stuff back, and the thief would learn his lesson. Some guys would take the bullying too far, one guy who was a 6th former (in his 2nd to last year) was taking it too far with the 3rd 4th formers, half the dorm put him in a big laundry bag and padlocked it, then rolled him down the hill, he wasn't that hurt but he was humiliated and that put him in his place.
And even if it was the seniors and head boys getting out of line they would respect you for standing up for yourself to them right to their face.
Thats what I did in my first year as a 3rd former. I let them know I wouldn't do anything for them out of fear or intimidation only respect. It lead to some confrontations but not once did I back down. I was more than happy enough to put on the gloves at 12 and step in there with 18-19 year olds.
Years later all those seniors still remember me fondly, its funny when I run into some of them, cause they comment that im now bigger than they are. But if I had run crying to a school staff member at the first sign of trouble I would of been held in contempt. The worst people where those who would try and bully others, then when that person stood up for himself and the bully got smashed or humiliated he would run crying to a teacher or someone else. Those people got ostracized and years later still butts of jokes.
