I've yet to be on the receiving end of any abuse from 'LG', though I am aware it has occured. IMO, that is quite a different matter than just posting random bits and pieces and should be dealt with as we would deal with any such misconduct.
As for vids and different colours...to be perfectly frank, I don't bother reading them any more and just scroll down. Trying to make the associations - which I don't doubt LG has given some thought to - just hurt my noggin too much. We could all quite easily do the same.
Having said that, vid intensive threads are a hassle to read on anything other than a home computer. Perhaps if/when LG does respond here, we can discuss it and come to some agreement re the volume of vids that are being linked?
Otherwise, it is supposed to be an open forum and posting things that annoy people isn't a breach of the rules as far as I'm aware. Let us not forget, one man's trolling is another man's meaningful and inciteful postings (you only need take a cursory glance at my own post history to realise this). HOWEVER, there are clear guidelines set out here and if they are being broken then appropriate action should (and I'm sure will be) taken.
If it doesn't cause too much aggro, it would be useful for members like myself, who really don't pay much attention to anything that doesn't have anything to do with themselves, to cite some examples of where a breach of guidelines has occured? If not here, then to one of our top banana mods? It can then perhaps be discussed in the locked mod thread for all to see.

EDIT: This is also why a 'block' facility as employed by some lesser forums would be jolly useful. About the only good use it would have, in fact.
