[i]It is unfortunate that nobody takes any responsibility for policing the Parsimony boards. Any wacko can adopt any nickname he desires, (even if it is one used regularly by someone else) and post any sick comment he wants. If Boldstorm and Balletmaster's comments are indicative, that means my death prediction is coming to pass. This saddens me, but I have no power to change it. Parsimony could change their policies by including URL addresses with each letter or even requiring a e-mail address. That would go a long way to avoiding board abuse without restricting content. Nobody likes censorship, but it's a shame when a meeting place with interesting and active messages gets trashed like this one has. A certain amount of active moderating seems to keep things on-track. If you want to explore alternative dance internet sites, here are a couple I've read. I'm sure there are others and maybe someone else can tell us about them. I am leaving off all the other Parsimony sites.People have complained that David, the moderator of DanceArt censors his boards too much. He even has a "bad word" detector that automatically substitutes a more acceptable (to him) synonym if you try to write something off-color. However, that keeps the boards PG rated and out of the sewer. His membership policy gives members exclusive rights to an alias. You don't have to pay for full membership to use DanceArt, but new non-members posts get held for a time to insure they meet standards. After a couple of messages, that requirement is dropped, but URL addresses are logged, which keeps the wackos at bay.I'm not as familiar with BalletAlert's policies. I read the messages, but it seems you have to pay to post, which is not something I'm willing to do. They do seem able to control language, because all messages adhere to the "civilized discourse" concept of their introductory page.Voice of Dance started as a San Francisco bay area resource, but has expanded beyond those geographic limits. In the transition, they also changed their message traffic to a very un user-friendly design. I used to read it frequently, but haven't used it much lately. [/i]
