Get your guns ready if you must but why not keep the safety on for now.

I don't think anyone has passed judgement on the new member. There has been some light hearted posting referencing the 'Bob Marley' name of said member, a couple of jokes, the odd pun, and a Simpsons screenshot. Hardly a lynch mob.

I don't think you can ban someone who hasn't even posted yet, I'm not saying what you are saying isn't true but there could also be a case of mistaken identity, I would say not good practice to ban new members without evidence in place.

Quite right, let's see what is posted - if anything. As I mentioned before there are rules and posts can be reported.

I'm not going to ban anyone before they have even posted.

I wouldn’t be buying into any of that. Just ignore the guy.

I can recommend a great “read”...... it’s about functional and dysfunctional social interactions. Have fun
