Talk to jart - the owner of this forum - about the problem. I just did and she said she was sad about the whole situation. Let's help her brainstrom about what can be done to clean up this troll-infested forum, which otherwise has such TREMENDOUS POTENTIAL.

I don't know who jart is but she needs to put people in control that she trusts to monitor the forum 24/7. It is being under minded and many of the hate threads end up in Google searches and puts OWS in a very bad light.

We can remove threads and make them drop out of google search results if they break the rules. Email urls along with a one sentence rational to

Please note that it might take google a week or so to catch up and remove it from the index, so in severe cases we can delete the thread entirely.

AGREE!

This is an extremely serious problem and had done great damage to OWS already.

Please take it up with jart as I have just done. The more people contact her and tell her that we care about this forum and refuse to let it go to pot (no pun intended), the better our chances of finally getting our forum back.

As my plain-speaking girlfriend blurted out the other day: "YOU MEAN OWS WANTS TO TAKE BACK THE COUNTRY BUT CAN'T TAKE BACK ITS OWN FORUM???"

Touché!
