Since his name is being brought up publicly by promotions (who are banning him from attending their shows due to his actions toward female talent) and he has ties to us, I don't want to let this get lost in the Starr thread - Yesterday, when we were made aware of the situation regarding this FAN member, we opted to initiate an immediate ban.
What's going on right now needs to serve as something of a wake-up call for fans, not just the actual wrestlers - if you're engaging in this sort of stuff online or at shows, you are not welcome here. We've often taken a "what happens off the boards stays off the boards" approach, but not on this.

You did the right thing. What he did was wrong and legally you guys can get tied in if he tried to pull a slick one. I'm glad you guys took action

Hey, at least Max Landis isn't alone anymore. Very bizarre situation.

Come to think of it like 90% of his posts pertained to women and women’s wrestling,
2020 is out of control. Good call on the quick ban

Damn, I always enjoyed interacting with him. It's such a disappointment finding out that he's possibly been involved in stuff like this.

After witnessing his 434,000 posts about Mickie James over the years, the only thing shocking to me is that first name wasn't actually Steve.

No possibly about this, the dude used his Twitter handle to do his posts. I wish I could say it was surprising or never saw it coming however I heard stories about the dude years ago that made me be wary of him

I'm only going by his posts here, I didn't follow him on Twitter or anything. That sucks.

Lots of posters here are bigger fans of the women and their work than of the guys. Nothing at all wrong with that. It's the line-crossing that's the problem.

All we know is essentially "someone did something that isn't approved of, and is banned, so let that information be a warning to ya." How can it be, when the information wasn't even provided anywhere in the thread to begin with? Go do some research or even visit the Starr thread I mentioned in the OP. Do not post in this thread again.

Shame when ANYONE does horrible shit like this. It hurts more when a person you likes for a decade does it.

I’m probably not being clear (as usual), yes, most people are harmless fans.

I was wondering who the person mentioned was in that thread. ...Eesh. That's all I have to say.

If it helps only improve the safety of these boards to rid them of someone who acts like this, then good call. This day has been a doozy...

It sadly doesn't surpised me giving his weird obsession for Mickie James, Shimmer and other women wrestlers and him hinting a couple times in the past that he knew personal detail about certain women wrestler like their shoot name and address. Hopefully other promotions follow through and ban him too.
