The internet is certainly a strange and mysterious, while wonderful place. I'm just relieved that the issue got resolved. Aloha, Jeff Hi G and Ryan,

Thank you both for your comments!

The internet is certainly a strange and mysterious, while wonderful place. I’m just relieved that the issue got resolved.

Aloha,

I certainly appreciate what they're dealing with. I run the HawaiiThreads.com message board, and things have gotten to the point where I essentially interview every new member before granting posting permissions. Out of a hundred signups a week, all but three or four are genuine, everyday people hoping for some friendly talkstory. The rest are shilling pills, porn, or looking to do some SEO on lucrative travel keywords. It seems antithetical to the aloha spirit to be so protective, but the commercial maelstrom on the web makes it necessary.
