Please don't  respond to the racist crap posted by some  troll tonight . I emailed Andrew, but if anyone else can get this off the board please do so.

I'm a Mod at Reel Horror and a post like that racist crap would have been vaporized the moment I saw it. Hope your Mod can take care of it. This guy who posted this puerile bulls**t should be vaporized also.

Dude, what's goin' on?  Is someone hijacking your name, or are you hitting the Jeckyll&Hyde juice again?

The super-intelligent racist folks that invaded our website took a disliking to me.  They're on this trip that I'm gay and have never been with a woman.  Problem is, I AM a woman and the fact that I've never been with one proves that I'm NOT gay... but why sweat the details?

So in answer to your question, they hijacked my  name.  This does not, however, mean that I don't visit the dark side...

Forgive the yawning chasm that is my ignorance of computers, but how can they just crack in and change the stuff said in posts you already made?

All they did was view the message board, stick my name in the "Your Name" section, and go to town. It's just "fill in the blanks".  I don't do the message board via email- I just view it & respond on the website.  

Hope this makes sense... I've had a long day dealing with the fire in carson city & my brain is pretty fried.

They didn't. Kory (the real one) isn't registered. She simply fills in her name and email address for each post. Because she's not registered, anyone is free to use the name "Kory", just as she could if she were at the library and wanted to post something. If she were to register, everyone else would be locked out of using that name unless they could hack her password.

Compare the two Korys;

Real: Author: Kory (---.ci.south-lake-tahoe.ca.us), flecktone01@yahoo.com

Fake: Author: Kory (---.dsl.anhm01.pacbell.net), dumbn****r@aol.com

So, who took care of getting that stupid post off the board.  I tried looking through some old post to find out if any moderators were ever assigned but couldn't find out for sure. I know Andrew is getting ready to ship out pretty soon , it would be nice to know what to do when crap like that shows up here.

A while back, there were a few 'regulars' given moderator status.  It's come up a few times that things have happened while Andrew was not immediately at hand, and that was the solution.  So, we do have a few around, but I don't recall who they are.

Being too busy to browse the boards the last few days, I missed these fireworks.  I'm glad.

Anyone's name that appears in bold text is a moderator.

It appears trek_geezer, JohnL & Brother Ragnarok are now moderators so I'm inclined to believe it was Andrew that deleted the offensive posts and gave moderation powers.

Easy to fix such from happening in the future.... simply use a board that does not allow posting with a random selected name, hence all guest´s who poast are named "Guest". This makes exploitation of existing names nearly impossible.

In Example phpBB2 or alike.

wich reminds me... I should get myself registered on this board! :)
