But don’t delude yourself into thinking that what is said here is even marginally important. It’s entertainment, pure and simple. I say something, you get mad, I get amused, and we get on with our lives. Nothing more, nothing less. I think you have it backwards. I say something and in turn you get shook up. If you thought I was that far off track you would have simply let it go after the first response. You got back to me so fast that I think that you burned your fingers to get a response out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancel culture, anyone? I will take the blame for the dungeon moniker. I have always meant, and said it, with fondness, however. It has never been meant as a slur. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you remove the space for them to discuss politics, they will discuss them on the main board which will make the board worse for everyone. It's very simple. Or, it's just not allowed and gets deleted from the football or OTW board. Pretty easy. 18 minutes ago, Deranged Rhino said: Only one side is allowed to voice their take on the main board. Just one. Everyone can voice their opinion on PPP. Take it away and all those voices who aren't allowed to speak will become unpleasant guests. I don't see much in the way of politics anywhere but here. A little in the OT Covid topic but not much else. Seems like those boards know how to set up civil codes of behavior. Plenty of places for a wild west approach to political discussion.

snafu Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 21 minutes ago, shoshin said: So the solution to awful people is to keep them around? That is really funny. No. You're missing it. The solution is to act on PPP the way you act on the main board -- or anywhere else in life. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell that to the mods who are already tired of having to moderate such conversations -- tell them that when the rates of those types of threads increases ten fold. Again, you're not thinking it through because you're more concerned with "being right" than understanding the subject. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 40 minutes ago, RochesterRob said: Nonsense. Politics get moved to PPP because the purpose of the TSW or OTW are other than political. To serve the interest of the board which is to serve Bills fans any team related subjects are not served by political bickering. TSW should be for Bills related topics primarily and NFL related material secondarily. In normal times. Covid has directly impacted the NFL though so it's nearly impossible to separate the two.
