Just a note in passing... Nobody really ever post anonymously in that the way the WWW works is you have to have an ISP to get online. Everybody's ISP number is recorded and available to Jim for security reasons.

Most message board or forum owners will treat abusive posters by not only banning them but by reporting them to their ISP provider. This results in the person's loss of internet service, probably without a refund. To my knowledge Jim has never taken that action but I just thought it would be good to point out that it is indeed an option.

For making threats against someone online there are legal options one can pursue, including criminal charges. And it is no problem to track somebody down who is threatening someone.

I know Jim wants everybody, especially our ladies, to feel safe here. If you recieve threats or other abusive emails through our email feature let myself or Jim know.

It is a good idea not to post personal information such phone numbers, addresses and that sort of stuff in here. If you wish to provide somebody this info it is best to do so by email.
