[kj] Partisan management of egos

[Who Cares]

What happened to Andy's message board? That was not too healthy of an
endeavor. It was a complete mess with nothing but internet wars and

Each website is a privately owned place. What a person does with it is
entirely up to the website owner. Some places have midget porn, some
have music, some have movies and each runs their site the way they
want and desire to.
