Hard to believe we can’t just have civil arguments here as friends but instead people are calling moderators to act in threads and there’s a bully mentality that aims not to discuss, but mock and belittle. 

 

OTW and TSW are really really well done with mods that help create an excellent community. This place doesn’t have to be the way it is but we let it get this way and it detracts from the entire good community of the other boards. 


TBD doesn’t need this.

PPP doesn’t need YOU. You’re a pompous prick and we can tell you’re aching to become a mod for PPP. It won’t happen. 
 

GTFO. We don’t need your 2,090 posts in the Pandemic thread where you continuously nest and fart your opinions several times daily.

Before a certain someone nuked another thread where facts proved him wrong, he made a public plea to the site owner about another poster.   Given the propensity of a certain poster under a bunch of different user accounts to start incendiary threads, which are then deleted when proven wrong, here's the operative passage in the ToS:

 

Personal "crusades" (posting the same information/opinion in an excessively repetitive manner. We want posters to share opinions not bludgeon others to death with them.) 

 

So a "Call Out thread" was needed?   Man the PPP sure is a wild and crazy place.  

 

To the basis of the OP.  All you needed to say was your last sentence 

 

Its politics and people tend to get prissy. 

 

the constitution says ...   We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union... 

 

Not,  We the Republicans or We the Democrats.

 

Make you point and or counter point and move on.   Name calling and insults solve nothing

 

The Mods dont like to come to the PPP unless they have to. 

 

If you think someone is crusading ....   USE THE REPORT FEATURE  and let the Mods deal with it.

I've read your posts in the pandemic thread and tolerated endured them for the sake of the overall discussion. You're outside of that thread now and your calls for moderation here at PPP are not what we, the long term PPP community want. You're like the California resident who moves to Texas because he hates what California has turned into, but wants to vote in the same people and policies he left in California. Your schtick is nothing new. It's regularly tried by left of center posters who want to have control down here. Settle down.

This community should be judged on how it greets and treats new and old posters. 

 

There are plenty of places where people can treat each other like crap on the Internet. It's clear that TBD tries to cultivate a good community in TSW* and OTW. PPP doesn't fit in in what it currently is, a haven for bully behavior (at best) and mostly a lack of considerate and thoughtful discussion. 

 

*Gameday loss threads excepted

you mean that's how you judge it. just because that is how you would like it doesn't mean that it's the way it should be.

 

as @3rdnlng pointed out, stop trying to change things to fit your vision of utopia. many here who have just as much right don't agree with you or your controlling nature. 

 

if you really want that which you speak of, in light of the current state of worldly affairs, TBD and OTW have become a sort of 'PPP lite' (my descriptor). according to a mod, SDS has instructed that a bit more leeway be given to the political side of discussions. it would seem that this would be right up your alley.

 

enjoy and don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

Now you're judging again. You are acting like a firebrand.

The easiest way to avoid this issue is to not reply to a troll's thread.  

 

 

Or to not reply to troll posts within threads. People should realize that you have to step down to an idiot's level to argue with them, and all you wind up with is two idiots arguing. 

 

There are a few who post here (under various names) who are trolling the living ***** out of this board, and will continue to do so as long as people take the bait. I see a lot of intelligent, informed people allowing themselves to be lured into a crap-throwing contest when they'd be better off not saying anything. There are plenty of divergent opinions on this board without having to lock horns with a handful of immature choads.

Good thing you stocked up on toilet paper.  Looks like you needed it for every orifice.

 

Maybe you can heed your own advice once in a while.

You should be banned for life with this gif.

 

It’s one thing to post all this political crap on here, but to kick us in the nuts is another (no offense to the women here).

We greet and treat new and old posters just fine. Useless posters, trolls, and morons get crapped on early and often - deservedly so.

 

If you don't want to get treated like schitt in PPP, don't be a schitt poster. It's really that simple.
