Hello Everyone!

I am making this post today in the hopes of stopping a continuing problem. As you all may know, we have had certain people show up on the board from time to time and disrupt things. All of us admins try our best to make sure those people can't interfere. We will continue to come after those who break our rules, I assure you.

There are a few web sites out there that sepecifically try to defame Josh in one way or the other.... these sites are plainly flame bait and not worthy to even speak of. I, like you, do not wish to drive traffic to them.

Nonetheless, we can all help in stopping these sites by complaining to the people who run them. Some of the members out there have started a drive to contact the owners in an attempt to have the offending content removed. That's great! Have at it!

Let's also do us all a favor by:

a) NOT TALKING ABOUT THESE SITES IN THE PUBLIC FORUM (please do it by PM)

b) NOT INTERACTING WITH THE PEOPLE WHO RUN THESE SITES (either HERE or THERE). It brings unwanted attention to a ridiculous topic.


If you can't help but visit them, go ahead, but please don't talk about it on the posts here. And when it comes to the sites saying bad things about our fellow members, please ignore them - IT IS ONLY MAKING THINGS WORSE BY SHARING THE COMMENTS WITH OTHER MEMBERS AT ALL. I won't let any of that garbage from those pages spill over into our community.

By working together, we can stop this from poisoning our boards! Let's do this for Josh, and do it for ourselves! We need to keep harmony here.

Hopefully this should be the last we hear of this. Thanks!

Sean

Sean you can't imagine how good it felt to read your post knowing that you understand how we all feel. The last thing any of us want is to have someone come here and soliciate their web site that we all know is only out to defame Josh . We know how they're mocking us here because we are true Fans, unlike them. People like that don't belong here and we'll keep trying to keep them out as best as we can. This is Gracin Land, and we'll protect it from all harm.

Apparently, before I came here, things were pretty ugly. Don't worry; I don't participate in 'flame wars'. We all come here to talk about one of the best singers out there, not to battle it out with others. Everyone is so nice since I've been visiting! :wink:

If people come in here and poke at us for liking Josh's music, they can go sit on an egg! :P I know where I belong, and that's here with all of y'all.

I am so glad to see the mods have such a positive attitude even in the midst of yucky stuff. This is the place to be.
