mods (if there are any) please delete my account here. I joined to share a passion of the egg and for cooking NOT to have to read rude and crude posts by someone who thinks they are funny. Thank you.

    Don't leave because of that guy.  I have to imagine the mods will nuke the account eventually here.

    This is a paragraph from the "Rules & Disclaimer" thread by BGE:

    Do not post links or images or create posts that are irrelevant for the purpose of the forum, which includes insulting, offensive, racist, sexist, discriminatory, obscene or vulgar remarks or any post which may be found to be in violation of any law or ordinance. This includes posts on topics which are polarizing or inflammatory in nature. If you do any of this, we will of course delete the post and ban you permanently.

    You might consider quoting this paragraph and sending an e-mail to:

    forumabuse@biggreenegg.com

    It's obvious that the moderator is either asleep or doesn't give a damn.

    I Love this forum and will not leave, but this jerk who is most likely a kid in his moms basement is really annoying.

    Moderators please deal with this soon. Thanks

    I appreciate what ya all have said, but to have a grown adult to act like a child and think it's funny is just not my cup of tea. It is fine that I don't have to open any of the threads he/she starts but when I'm following a thread and I then have to see this boneheads rude comments...naw don't need it.

    I've actually emailed BGE about the problem with this character ... Via the email address on their site ... No response from them. Maybe a phone call is in order

    I think Hitler would be a great moderator.  On this forum he goes by Mickey.
    Damn John, I thought he was leaving because of you..... 
    badinfluence just go with the flow. It only gets to you because you let it. Life is way to short to let crap like that bother you (at 67 you start to realize that, well that and you can't bend over to pickup shiiit anymore). This place is totally worth it. Hell, VI is not gone, he surfs in and out.

    With the net come trolls, lay low until its fixed then come back. I have not clicked on one of those threads . Why even read what's typed if it shows up in a thread you are reading. Btw .... There are no words typed on a screen that can offend me, maybe I'm different ... I don't know. In the food business you may come across "offensive" customers....brush it off.

    Don't blame you a bit. I actually quietly left after the devastated thread got so vile and disgusting. Only logged back in yesterday and find the immature crap inexcusable. I am basically a newbie and am sure my absence was never noticed. I wonder how many others have quietly left because of a clear lack of moderation and low tolerance for idiots?

    I wish they would come up with a block button, so you can block anyone you wouldn't want to see, read threads or comments by.

    I don't if you have ever owned your own business or not but if you start to have success in your food truck others will follow and then you will really be bad mouth by your competition i a sure you To try and slow your roll. Just the jealous ridding your coat tails wishing they were as successful. Let it roll off for it's just the start. It's a Rude world these days.

    FWIW...I totally agree...there are people that post on this site that need to be removed...the org that underpins this site is clearly failing in its duties when we see porno type renditions of food....they need to be removed...totally agree with the comment about "blocking" a particular name....

    There are a couple of people that grate my nerves. Nothing nasty...just that they know everything and will let you know quickly. I never open their post or read their comments. Commenting just feeds the troll.

    I sent an email to BGE Corporate about the troll last week. Never heard anything back. Pretty disappointed that BGE doesn't care enough about the forum to take out the trash.

    It is interesting to note that though all seem to agree on the content of this guy's character, his threads show many, many views. 

    One of them has almost two hundred views. 

    Someone is interested in his foolosity, apparently.
