College ACB’s founders claim the site goes beyond just gossip

College ACB:College Anonymous Confession Board web site, known as the College of ACB, recently expressed concern in the field.
Although the number of potentially humiliating positions, such as women’s club rankings and racial slurs were marked on the site in the past, recent list can be fun for students heightened tensions between several members of the university community, particularly those listed on the board.
Site ACB College consists of a student bulletin boards composed entirely of anonymous messages in which students can both comment and vote on posts by other posters from the college.
“It’s basically just to promote a student-controlled space where people can say whatever they like without fear of social consequences,” said Peter Frank, who now owns the ACB and college freshman at the University Weslyean. Frank said that anonymity allows students to ask questions, they may tend to hesitate to ask.
“This could be embarrassing to ask their friends, as a matter of sex or relationship question, but if you’re anonymous, it’s not a big deal,” he said.
From the home page of each college, the content varies from college to college. For Wesley, for example, the site became a center for student groups and student life, and especially useful as a way for people to use and share information updates during the school shootings of May, “Frank said. He acknowledged, however, that the vile comments were found on some boards, the college’s website.
“In some schools, it is ACB, for many schools, it is just a new JuicyCampus”, explained Frank.
To assist in monitoring and at the same board allow the free expression of opinion, Frank posts immediately taken, if specific people mentioned.
“We did not want to watch it too much … because he is a student space, and it is completely user driven, and I do not want to stay my hand, and to influence the debate in any case, he said.
Even with careful monitoring of Frank, though potentially controversial comments could make its way to the site. Some university students recently discovered that they were on the list may be gay college students at a forum ACB.
Third year college student Reginald Benbow said that while he was openly gay, he was offended when he saw his name on the list last week. In addition, he wondered why anyone would bother to place his name, noting that he is “, and open and he Facebook”.
D’Vaughn Walker, a third year college student and the student directly in the list, as well as find the list of attack, but added that he did not take it too seriously, noting that the allegations were “dumb.”
Both Benbow and Walker said they hoped that the Student Council will issue a resolution against the site, offering Benbow, the site should hold students accountable for their comments by requiring them to register their legal names on the site. A student petition against the site, to block it from computers of the University may be useful as well, he added. Last year a similar condemnation of JuicyCampus was issued.
“Submitting false rumors about your classmates does not contribute to the community trust,” he said.
Frank said that he also believes the blocking site in the computer system of the University is a good idea.
“I’m sure, a few colleges have blocked them on the level,” he added.
But Dean Students Allen Groves said these problems deal with touchy freedom of speech issue, noting that the university can only block web site, if it becomes a serious problem of public safety.
“Our consistent advice to students is to stop logging in to the site if they find the content offensive, and if a sufficient number of students that do, the consequences of the site – and his life – will be very limited,” said Groves. “Sites like  in general prices, and sell advertising based on the number of visits to the site, so the lower the student movement should mean less viable businesses for the operators of the site.”
Although the ACB profitable, Frank noted that he is less popular than JuicyCampus.
“I would say that about three-quarters of the popularity of JuicyCampus”, he said, noting that the site receives about 500,000 visitors a day.
