Aching4forgiveness has requested a stop sign.

I suggest that after a stop sign is requested posts are treated as if there is a stop sign from the moment of request. Moderator lag should not provide space for BS to post when they are not meant to be posting, and any BS posts that were written after a stop sign is requested should be replaced with WS Only.

Pippin,

While that is a nice suggestion, that's not the way we handle things. We take the Stop Sign seriously in this forum. If a BS posts on a Stop Sign, they get removed from this forum. What you're suggesting would muddy the waters and make it harder to moderate this forum. If an OP asks to have the Stop Sign removed, the rules don't change until the Stop Sign is removed.

If the Stop Sign is in place, BS's are not allowed to post. If the Stop Sign is removed, BS's may post within the guidelines of this forum.
