i read threads where jon dough and mike stephano are insulting fans and they have not been banned. if a fan had done the same thing they would have banned in a minute. the only reason why they have not been banned is because dion is their boss and he calls the shots at adt not drew or steph. why else did everybody choose the side of rld in that anabolic lawsuit thread?



I have read the Stefano thread you mention and whilst I don't know if any warnings were given behind the scenes he did seem to get off very lightly for what was in fact a massive verbal bombardment which was totally unjustifed (he has since totally apologised for the post). I personally wouldn't have banned him on the basis of this one post (were it up to me) but I do agree it seemed to be glossed over someawhat.
Jeffs banning had a rather different tone. At the time I thought it was totally justified and I still do. If I wanted to get banned I'd make the sorts of posts Jeff was making; he is clearly an intelligent fella and I sort of wonder if getting banned (or pushing at the limits) was his intention.
The thread where Jeff was banned was actually a very good one as it highlighted just why you do need censorship if you actually want to discuss something sensibly. The issue at hand concerned whether it is acceptable to call women sluts/whores in porn (which I have no problem with) but the thread was somewhat hijacked and all possibility of rational discussion rendered impossible by the posts of Jeff and Wanker Wang (who somehow escaped banning) who both chose to embark on a World Wrestling Federation style hyperbole extravaganza on why porn women are the scum of the earth (quite amusingly written most of it but guaranteed to inflame and upset given the nature of ADT).
Interestingly talking of censorship, one of the moderators later locked the thread (I believe mainly due to a post I had made) but the thread was reopened by Steph which hardly fits in with this caracature that is being painted.

Finally, why did everybody choose the side of PX in the Anabolic lawsuit? I swear on my life that I have no allegiance with Dion or anyone associated with RLD or PXP but I thought Anabolic were out of order and I still do. If you truly want to believe that Dion somehow has me over a barrel then I don't know what to say - he's thousands of miles away from me and if I thought Anabolic were right to sue I'd have said so, make no mistake.
