Look guys, how hard can this be? Treat other people like you'd like to be treated, refrain from vulgarity, stay on topic. If you get warned then you will know where the boundaries are.

Has anyone else been warned or kicked off? No? You think there might be a reason? Like this guy that did was clueless? Some people you just can't reach. There's one or two in every crowd.

As Officer Barbrady said, "Move along. There's nothing to see here."
It depends on what you want for the forum. In our school, an inner city HS we have many cases of kids that do things that we would want to expel them for. What we have learned is that different students respond well to different teachers for who knows what reasons. So if you want to try and keep your students what you do is find who they work with best and get that person to talk some sense into the kid. From this thread I would assume that Awareness might have been the person to talk sense into 11of101. This will not cause a magical transformation, but it may allow many more to stay within the bounds of what is civilized.

One thing I would hope for this forum is that we would make an effort to help those damaged by the LRC. I understand that you did try to help this member, all I am saying is that if those running this forum would like to keep it vibrant with many ex LCers coming and sharing their testimonies and opening up, then an approach to mediate disputes that takes into account that people work better with some than others may help.
