    It probably was bad business for Amazon because they had to tiptoe around and keep a tight rein on the posters so as not to offend customers and potential customers. Let's face it, if this forum was a retailer, they'd be bankrupt if their customers saw some of the crap posted here. lol

    Owl and I agree. That's good enough for me.

    No. You might have been responsible for any trolling, but APF was shut down at the same time as all of the others. It was an Amazon business decision.

    In Jade's case? No, APF was shut down with all of the others. There is and was nothing special about Jades, case.

    With a few exceptions, we Amazionians tend to befond of each other, you should accept that.

    She was always good for spreading the 'Party line' of KSA.
    Interesting you should mention " her cover was blown"...she did go by "other names", you know, or so the story goes

    Right. I meant though that he got banned before APF went away, along with dozens of others. Some were totally inexplicable, like JGC and Aimee.

    They kept a few forums open a week or two past the date. The political forum they canned several days before they were supposed to. Political forums as a whole are normally wretched little troll domains. Most of them require much more moderation than is sensible for business. Most all business run forums have been uprooted like the weeds they were. The rate new accounts are starting to appear on JPP is reminding me of Amazon. That's the simple truth in what I'm saying

    If you look at the new accounts most of them appear to be spammers fixing to advertise some snake oil or the other. "Steroidsphilippines" really? lol

    How interesting that you are so focused on a single individual who defended the Saudis, while ignoring the dozens and dozens here who defend Twittler's bromances with foreign despots like the Saudi prince, Putin, Lil Kim, Duterte, Erdogan, etc.

    I miss Kudzu. She was intelligent, articulate, funny, assertive, and knowledgeable about both ME issues and history, and religions as well. No wonder you and your ilk dislike her so. lol

    That was 3 of them. One thing to note is that basically every newbie is a rightist. I thought from the getgo that Nolongertolerant was a few other posters. Then he got banned and they got him for sneaking back in. Cultsmasher has also been trying several times and is likely Postense
