Re: Removal of posts - About the ISA, Rick Dobson, etc
Hi all,
As much as I'm sure we're rather not go over this topic again, I've been asked by the Mars Society to remove all threads concerning the ISA and Rick Dobson. These topics really have nothing to do with the Mars Society and since they descended into attack campaigns against the Society (which I should point out is not the same as normal criticism, which people have been doing constructively here for a long time), it won't be tolerated. Where possible, posts that have value independent of the attack campaign and are not simply responding to it will be saved.

Re: Removal of posts - About the ISA, Rick Dobson, etc
I tried to see if he could be part of the community again, but it just didn't work out. I've been warned about Rick before many times by various groups and people, and I sort of have been non-chalant about it.
But I don't take threats lightly. This is a private website, thus it can have whatever rules it wants to have. No laws are being broken, no slander or 'libel' is occuring. The fact of the matter is that ISA is no longer welcome on these forums, and if any of my many moderators sees him you have full permission delete his posts.
Oh, ISA is a registered trademark. 
Just FYI.
