Part 1 I saw offensive postings and asked for help to stop it.
Saturday April 22 2023 Between 2:03AM and 2:36AM I saw a series of posts popping up that contained cussing, four letter words, remarks about someone's mother, homosexual acts and definite attempts to dirty up Tampa Racing by starting some kind of website fight along with the foul language.
I did not use the same language as the offending poster since it was not what our advertisers would appreciate being beside an ad which they were paying for. And we do sell ads to companies.
I went through channels and reported the posts and asked that the poster be stopped and removed from Tampa Racing.
I reported the offending posts twice in hopes that someone would notice what was going on and stop the cussing and insults.
I got no response so I started closing some threads to contain and stop further posting of offending cuss words, 4 letter words and insults from being posted.
As I closed a thread, I posted this link below to direct the poster to one site only as a way of containing
and limiting the offending cuss words, 4 letter words and insults from being posted......
limited to only ONE thread...and each of the offending posts got the same line.

--------------------------------------------
Then....
First I gave the offending poster warnings. It did not stop him from posting more offending cuss words, 4 letter words and insults.
I realized that warnings were not stopping him, so I eventually gave him enough points to stop him.
Once he was stopped from posting further offending posts,
I then went to the offending posts and replaced the offending words with a series of dots.
I then changed the subject of the post to "
It was appropriate to use that sentence because he would not be posting more of his garbage again
and I now would have time to clean up his posts....which I did.
