I mean, I respect the mods ability to mod and enforce the COC, as we all agreed to that. But that feels like a double standard, unless I missed something else that was said. They turned a blind eye for weeks while that psych ward patient spammed the board, but poor baby gets his feel feels hurt after deleting deleting a thread that made him look bad and here come the mods to enforce rules that they’ve specifically said don’t apply down here?

Westside Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 That's so wrong. DR was the most informed poster on this site! I was suspended for a couple days for defending myself against a horde of angry liberals on here. I guess it's only ok if you're a liberal. So much for a neutral message board.

BillsFanNC Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 I know some people are against using the ignore function, but I think this again calls on folks to consider using it. I'm all for discussion with people who don't agree with me politically, but everyone can tell who the trolls are down here. These people cant/won't acknowledge even the most basic facts and just throw bombs all day based on the same old regurgitated disproven BS. These people will never take the L, so why even engage at all with them? Please do not feed the trolls. As an aside if anyone knows if DR is on social media and can PM me his info Id appreciate it. Having his voice silenced during this critical period is shameful. 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason that PPP has worked is that people who want honest discussion can find it, and those who cant get ostracized. Apparently now calling out trolls for their trolling is no longer allowed. What fun times we live in. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also for the record - the thread that was deleted contained at least 2 of the same memes that were posted on the last page of the thread on the Off the Wall board that was locked. There was also a post by a certain poster that referenced noosing a US House Representative. The thread needed to be deleted. It became vile. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That goes on here every day on both sides. Mostly from a small number of people. The vast majority actually will engage in discussion. It might get heated, but, that is the nature of politics. I am not a fan of calling specific people out in threads; however, I watched thread after thread being started in which people were being called out, by name (maybe not in the thread title - but in the first post) for being racist or some other vile assertion. I watched post after post of that s**t being posted. People openly stated they reported it to the mods - and nothing happened. Honestly, what I saw of DR's thread last night was mild to what I have seen here over the last month or so.

Magox Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 That's what happens when rules are applied arbitrarily. Ultimately a human is behind the switches and every human has their own inherent biases, it's not an indictment on any specific person, it's just a fact of life. I'm generally for a free board and I'd rather have this than how rules are applied over on the other side but there are various posters here whose main purpose is to troll. They don't actively engage in substantive conversation, they litter the board with troll threads and trolling conversations. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
