Although I think the general population has rioted and Desi and Tinto might be a bit scared to step in. Might have to call Peter to shut some of these threads down:) Although they are funny this could have been the most combat I have ever seen in one day on PBH. I think this was the most fun I have seen since that reality show "Paradise Hotel" a few years back. Anyway simultaneous thread started from scooby on the Medellin Mansion while another "Calling all dogs" then Rubito calls scooby perfectly. This place is rioting then e have scotty running from post to post caling people "Fat". I love you guys.

Adrrim - are you sucking up in the hope of being a mod? Free speech against know deviants was blocked. God help us if any minors are affected as a result of the inability to name and shame these "tourists"

Mede No schemes to be a mod ;) - ever.

Anyone could type any name into a post without having it substantiated - if naming names it is out of scope of this site, then it doesn't belong here, period, and it isn't up to us the users. Personally I feel that sex tourism and minors is huge can of worms and this isn't the way to handle it.

Who knows, maybe a champion out there will be so concerned about it that they'll create a site specifically to address the issue, preferably one that doesn't share fart-jokes. In the meantime it might be more effective to actually write some letters of concern to authorities and organisations to help work towards estblishing institutions and programmes to assess the extent of and deal with the issue earlier rather than later.

I plan to write a letter to the DAS regarding Greg Smith I am disgusted at some of the stories that I have heard regarding minors. I have seen the misery that exploited minors have to live through in Thailand and Costa Rica and am determined to do whatever I can to prevent suffering at the hands of foreigners in Colombia.

kat1 (Moderator) says on May 23, 2007, 13:19:

I think next time that Peter decide to assign somebody for moderator, it should keep it secret and don't let anybody to find out who is moderating. so nobody can have a go at them directly and they can participate more without looking like they are taking sides.


I think Tinto and Desi are doing a good job!

The mods do a very good job. They do little to earn the abuse and brickbats they so often get for doing a thankless unpaid job for ungrateful malcontents.

Going- south I have never been rude to you neither Desi, and I don't want to start because I don't like to waste my time in nobody's, so if you do me a favor and pretend you have a Kat1 ignore button i hit all the time, like that we will avoid problems in the future. you are starting to look like my shadow!

Whether you agree with them or not you have to admit the mods are doing a thankless job. If someone's posts get deleted a little quickly, big deal. No one said the world is fair. That being said, I think they do a great job.

Not trying to kiss any butts, but I agree jay1234. They (moderators) have a thankless job, it is totally voluntary and without monetary benefit, and they get ripped from all sides: The classic, "damned if I do, damned if I don't." I have been irritated in the past at deleted posts, but big deal. The world still spins and the sun still rises in the morning.

podborski says on May 25, 2007, 16:04:

just saw that Paz Vega (where she bares all) movie in Blockbuster el feliz. It's not sexo y lucia, it's called el otro lado de la cama, and it also stars Natalia Verbeke who, IMHO, leaves Paz in her dust.

So go search for that movie and leave the girls alone to enjoy their drinking and gossiping ;)
