Be careful what you post on this site! Reporters are watching!

Be careful what you post on this message board. There is a reporter around here taking screenshots. These screenshots can end up in the wrong hands. This could lead to lawsuits because you know everyone tries to sue everyone over anything these days. Admins please delete this person ASAP!

The reporter is obviously taking the worst aspects of BP and posting the screenshots for clicks. That said, this is a massive public forum. Of course there are bad actors and scumbag landlords among the ranks. There are also newbies like @Jay Hinrichs pointed out. 

Is the solution to ban this reporter? Hell no. What would that do? He could still visit the site and take screenshots. This is still a public forum. Bottom line, in my mind at least..... Don't want to be featured in an article about scumbag landlords? Don't post like a scumbag landlord. Be willing to stand behind everything you post. 

The current social media landscape allows the court of public opinion to rule on any post, even those taken out of context. This is true for Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and certainly BP. Be mindful of what you post.
