Whoops.

I forgot about you too. Sorry.

But, before you go, it's only fair to explain something to you. It'll be long, but please read it all so you understand.

I wish I did not work a very busy full time job. I wish that I did not have so many obligations to friends and family. I wish I had more time to do the million things I need to do here at GC. I work 40+ hours a week, do tons of traveling for my job and have quite a busy life.

Still, I find time to help moderate at GC. I was never the most active moderator, but I was honored to be chosen to help keep GC running. I was asked as a personal favor to a good friend to watch over this board when he left Admin, and so I have. I have moderated more since his departure than I did in all my other years here. I made a promise and I do not break my word. I will admit that at times, this commitment has really tried my patience.

I think about why GC is here. GC exists to serve the needs of men and women who are sexually attracted to girls. It is a sanctuary where our kind can come and talk about what they love most. They can give support, find support, share feelings, discuss their desires and learn who they really are. Most importantly they can learn that their feelings are not wrong. They can learn they are not monsters. That is the most important lesson a Girl Lover can be taught.

I'd like to think GC accomplishes these things.

What is GC not here for? It is not here for people who are not sexually attracted to girls. It is not here for non-pedophiles to come and debate with us. Yes, we do welcome such individuals here at GC- as guests in our home. This is how it should be. Never forget my friends that GC is our forum. Anyone who is not a GL is simply a guest here.

Of course most of our posters enjoy a good debate. We welcome debate. Many a Girl Lover has questioned their feelings, their desires, their motivations and even their actions on this forum. They've worked it through with the many people who dwell in this place. It's natural and healthy to ask questions, because that's how we learn and grow.

But not all of our "guests" are here to learn about us. They are not here to grow with us. They are not here to share in the special love we all feel toward little girls. They are here to cause dissent and trouble. They are here to spread the same hatred that we face everyday in the real world. They bring this into our very home.

There is a line that should not be crossed by guests in our home, but this line is sometimes crossed by those who do not share our proclivities. Yes, these people will cry foul and complain that they are or were attracted to little girls (it certainly doesn't come through in their words), and that they are being treated unfairly. They will cry that because they do not share the "majority" view on GC, they are censured. They claim their voice is silenced simply because they do not agree with us and dispute our views. They claim they are banned because people want them banned. This is simply false.

Of course, all one has to do is point to the many GC posters who have a non-contact view (the "minority" view), to see this reasoning is flawed.

Blue Heaven, has insulted, insinuated, implied and flat out accused posters of wanting nothing more than sexual contact so many times, I've lost track of all the edits. He has accused people of illegal acts, he has accused people of having no other motivation in life except to have sex with kids. He has created a level of hostility on this board that has not been seen for some time. One thing is very clear. He is not a Girl Lover anymore, if he ever were one. His behavior as a guest in our "home" just was not acceptable and will not longer be tolerated.

The same goes for Moth and Theory of Mind. They have trolled this forum with their ignorance, hatred, insults, thinly veiled threats and insinuations of illegal activity far too often, and it's time to put a stop to it. Each of them has now been banned from Girl Chat.

I want it to be made very clear that this decision is not being made lightly. It has taken much soul searching and inner debate for days. I am a supporter of the right to "free speech", but I have to carefully weigh the alternatives and my conclusion must be to keep GC on track in it's most important mission: To be a place for Girl Lovers to be themselves and not have to hear the same constant messages of hate they get in the real world. Some of you may disagree, and you are entitled to that opinion. But, I have made my choice and I stand by it.

There will be talk of a double standard. That we have let antis in the past get away with much worse. I'd like to address this.

First, we have no way of knowing when someone registers if they are an anti. Some people will lie to get on this forum. *rebelsoul I'm looking at you*

Some of these people will not admit right away they are not true GLs. Some will pretend they are and then one day make a complete 180 reversal. *Looking at Blue Heaven now*.

Times are constantly changing. GC is constantly changing. Our posters change and grow. GC must change with the times. We learn from our mistakes. We have allowed some past antis to get away with far too much (though probably not as much as people seem to remember).

Remember the old GC youtube policy? We allowed any video of any little girl, as long as it had no nudity. Remember how we changed that policy when every other post was a youtube video to the next beautiful lg? GC was becoming a lg video forum, and that is not what GC is here for. So, we adapted our policy (even if we weren't happy about it)

GC must continually evolve. That's just the way it is.

Yes, we do give our GL posters more leeway than non-GL posters. Is this really fair? Well, it all depends on the point of view. You see, GC is a forum run by Girl Lovers, for Girl Lovers. So, of course we will sometimes "look the other way" when debates between fellow GLs get a little heated.

But, when an anti, or non-GL is involved, we are going to be stricter from now on.

Let this post serve notice to all the nons and antis who wish to post here. You will be subject to extra scrutiny. As long as you debate in a calm, rational manner and do not make baseless attacks and accusations of our posters, then you will be allowed to post here.

However, if you continually make baseless accusations such as "All you people want to do is have sex with kids!", if all you do is spread anger, hatred and create an atmosphere of hostility, then you will forfeit your guest membership at this forum.

GC is about learning to live with our feelings and desires in an increasingly hostile and complex world. This is our home, our community. We will not allow those who hate us (and themselves) to disrupt what we have here. This is not about "censorship". We have more than let these individuals say their piece. Even when they crossed the line, we still let them say their piece. But, enough is enough. I've reached a point where I cannot allow it to continue.

I am just a man. All I can do is make what I feel are the best decisions to help our forum. Please keep this in mind.

Finally, I do not want this to turn into a huge debate. What's done is done at this point. If you feel it necessary, you may email me if you wish to discuss this further, but keep in mind how little free time I have and most of it is taken up reading posts on GC.
