nope they can't post anymore but they did while they were still registered and not yet banned today (under a new name - not the same name as that person i think you're thinking about peaches)... and then Heather banned them but their name still exists I think. lol confusing enough?

Are you referring to the new creepy guy who was posting very scary messages in response to our posts about an hour ago? EWWWWWW.
I e-mailed Heather as soon as I saw his posts -- about 2 minutes behind him -- and she immediately banned him and deleted all his disgusting posts.
Creepy people out there. We have to be aware!

and if you see any posts marked "unregistered" please email me a link to that at heather@helpforibs.com. I haven't seen this so I'd like to check it out.
In a nutshell, we had a new poster today who just typed up one obnoxious post after another. Bev and others (thank you!) caught on right away, emailed me, and I deleted all the posts and banned the person. Their posts should not show up at all once they've been deleted.
Is it a full moon or something? This has been the craziest week on the boards, ever. I really hope this was the last of it and things settle down back into a happy (and sane!) groove.

The new poster with the inappropriate name was the same one that was banned... Steph, I didnt read your camping reply but I read some of the other ones by this person. One was like about ibs and antibiotic eyedrops and the person said go stick your eye with a red hot poker or something to that effect...dont worry they are gone now unless they come back as yet another reincarnation.

They'll show up as our newest member until the next new member comes along. But their posts are gone and they're banned from the site.
You can always report any user names, posts, or anything else that looks questionable to me by just emailing me at heather@helpforibs.com. If you can send me a link to the post in question that will help, but if you don't know how to do that just a head's up will do. I really, truly rely on folks on the boards to keep an eye on things and let me know about problems - I try to be everywhere on the boards as often as possible, but it can overwhelm me. So I thank you all for helping out with this - it makes a world of difference in keeping our boards a nice place to be!

I settle in for a couple hours of TV with the boyfriend, and look at all the fun I miss!
Just kidding. I'm perfectly happy to have missed it all, thanks.
Thanks, Heather, for keeping the boards pleasant & safe!

What was the name? I remember glancing at it and thinking it was weird, but I didn't pay that much attention to it at the time. Now I wish I had taken a closer look.

It was not a nice name, and the minute I saw it, chills went down my spine. Then, when I read the post I was appalled. I went to another post with that name and it was equally as disgusting.
Trust me -- you don't wanna know.
I'm just glad New Creepy Guy is gone -- hopefully forever. I suspect it was Angel.

I think I can guess. Kind of like one of those license plates that you look at and can't figure out---and then later, it hits you.
