Â I would finally want to see that Jeff PPD section nuked! I reported this issue on the bans thread months ago. Â There are some pages Jeff had intentionally set to energetically connect the viewer with his practices. If you have good faith about people's complaints about entities and other nastiness around Jeff, then the PPD should be at least hidden if not completely deleted. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, we plan to do our best to address whatever issues are raised. One thing to be aware of, the owner of the board is not fond of deleting or hiding posts unless they are abusive, insulting, spam, and so forth. With that in mind, we'll look at Jeff's PPD and make a decision about whether any material violates the terms of service and should be hidden or deleted. If anyone has made requests in the past that were not addressed, please repost or reach out to one of the staff and we'll try to help.  1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dawei Posted June 21, 2020 Thanks.  Fwiw... Past handling was to move a removed members ppd to the sleeping pod section.  Selective hiding of a removed members ppd posts seems a bit odd but I get it.  1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dainin Posted June 21, 2020 It would also be nice if more of the older but never used ppds and those that have been inactive for several years could be moved to the sleeping section. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for presenting this, and I agree. Once permissions are sorted, and the back log of new ppd requests are handled, this can be added to the to do list.

SongShuhang Posted June 21, 2020 Great, and I agree about moving all banned/2+ years inactive members ppd's away from the public, in hidden or sleeping section at least. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
