Now, I've been on Newstoday for awhile,a nd I completely support it and am grateful for its forums and boards.
However, when people start criticising your ads regarding Google, why on Earth did you have to have their IP's banned?
That is not cool. At least send out a forewarning, or cancel their account as punishment.
By the way, you banned the entire Digitas office from using NT.
I'm very disappointed guys
=(

wait.... what happened?

the Google post on the PVN got eliminated, and I'm assuming some people got their IP's and accounts banned.
My friend from Digitas NYC, got banned. I dunno if others did too.

I mean, it's fine to have ads and whatnot, hey, we all need to support ourselves somehow and put food on the table.
but surely it was an overreaction.

I think the other post about how some of the NTB Posts are Ad Placements also were nuked.
As seen here in their Advertising section
"NTB Authorship privileges are available at 2 NTB broadcasts per month max and include a logo mark image along with each message broadcasted. Each broadcast contains a clickable Author signature and will remain archived, listed and accessible within the NTB Broadcast Authors list box."

public banning would be nice, like old lynchings, and we could use voting buttons and let the masses decide. Y/N

radar's idea is good, go even further and have a hate option on their profile if a person gets enough "hated" they get banned and forced to pay to get unbanned (i personally wouldnt pay lol)

I think I would pay to be un-hated, but then again - growing up, I was the kid who loaned you all my favorite toys just so you would be my friend.
