I'm a network administrator and a Moderator on two forums.. I know EXACTLY what this guy was doing. He may also have been irritated that this anonymous user reposted again. No big deal, you just ban the IP.. but no.. he had to go rabbit hunting. Unfortunately the school employee WAS in the wrong.. totally. I would say put him on probation but he was an idiot and just quit. Bad all the way around.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[James]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 19th 2009 1:46PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ms. Greenbaum may well find the meaning of karma in the fullness of time.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wish Belkin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 19th 2009 10:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</guid><description><![CDATA[Your commenters are all spammers.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ethan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 19th 2009 2:24PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</guid><description><![CDATA[Goodness.

The newspaper site DID originally act within its own server - it deleted the comment, only to have the sender re-post it.  Yes, I believe action was necessary.  This teacher was obviously on the internet for more than just a minute, not to mention that school children all over Missouri read the newspaper online for class projects.  Teachers have more to do than to stand guard and make sure students don't read the comments at the end of the articles.  If you tell your child not to do something and they do it again, do you ignore it?  I'd hope not.  The guy KNEW his comment was rejected by the site, yet chose to repost it - deserves what he got.  You are a teacher - teach, don't play online - no wonder kids aren't learning anything these days.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lisa]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 19th 2009 8:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</guid><description><![CDATA[The article never said anything about the emplyee being a teacher.<br><br>Guy should've just put "taco."]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Silent Josh]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 19th 2009 8:45PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</guid><description><![CDATA[The moderator should have just blocked this man from continuing to post.  I do think Greenbaum over stepped here because posting rude things has nothing to do with the teacher's job.  Furthermore, how did Mr. Greenbaum know that surfing online while at work was prohibited or even if this teacher was posting on their lunch break?  Telling on someone over a naughty word, he should be ashamed of himself.  I bet he cusses once in awhile, I hope the same happens to him then someday.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[pinkthenred]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 19th 2009 8:24PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</guid><description><![CDATA[Also, if Mr. Greenbaum finds himself getting so angry that he has to look up ISPs for information about a poster, he needs to quit being a moderator.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[pinkthenred]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 19th 2009 8:28PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</guid><description><![CDATA[Whatever.

The First Amendment says that "Congress shall make no law," it doesn't say a little brat can mouth off to a teacher without being punished for it, and then enable him to claim that it's his First Amendment right.  <br><br>While Congress may not be able to pass a law prohibiting free speech (slander and libel are not included), any other establishment (school, workplace, restaurant) is free to enact penalties for those that are vulgar, disrespectful, etc.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Marti]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 19th 2009 9:10PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/11/19/anonymous-sexual-blog-comment-costs-school-employee-job/</guid><description><![CDATA[So, maybe the moderator shouldn't have asked the question.
