Martial law at Whedonesque
Via speakr2customrs, I just found out about new rules in the comics forum at Whedonesque. Read and boggle:

In case the link breaks or goes away, here's the comment:
Right, I have let this go on for too long.
There are a number of people who do not like the comics in general. Not just one issue, or one aspect. They do not like them and they will tell us they do not like them every single thread. You know who you are, and we know it too.
That stops now. I want to give these threads back to people who buy the comics, enjoy reading the comics and want to discuss them seriously.
New rule:
If you do not like the comics, you are no longer allowed to post in comics threads. Post again and you're banned from this site forever. All this at the mods' discretion.
There will be no discussion of this rule here on the board, in this thread or any other thread.

I rarely read Whedonesque, I've never participated in the forums there, and I'm not actually interested in talking about the comics because I don't, in fact, like them very much -- but I'm this is the kind of thing that makes me want to initiate a spam war against the perpetrator. Evidently this moderator lives in the Netherlands. WTF?
