What I wrote applies equally to any person. What makes PPP so great is the freedom to post different ideas, no matter how much someone may disagree... That being said, I really don’t like the idea of moderators on this forum because I feel it will just lead to political censorship of ideas someone just disagrees with- like in the Buffalo Bills forum... Keep the Left wing wackos and keep the Right wing wackos...most people here are moderates and can navigate through a conversation without needing “mommy” to hold their hand...dictating what info is fair or true will kill this great forum!

GaryPinC Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 I have kind of a different angle, I'd like a moderated subforum in PPP that focuses on solid discussion. No memes, no social media sources and warnings for posters who are only posting to disrupt a thread, or crusading. Then keep the unregulated forum for the regular zinger jousting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be more interested in something like this. Separate it into two forums. The one we have now where it's basically people just posting confirmation bias links, memes, tweets, etc... Then have a subforum where only discussion is allowed. Links to anything would be disabled. No need for a moderator. You may actually get more people to step outside their comfort zone of talking only football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new board's political site is not "hidden" as is often repeated here. But you have to earn your way on. With what? Conspiracy theories? Ivermectin challenge? Acts of fealty to Donald Trump? Or is it like a gang, and you dress the new person as a Democrat and beat him or her in? No thanks. I’ll pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re getting somewhere. No beat-ins, and no ivermectin challenge. So would I have to do a little voter fraud thing, like maybe go to Arizona to help with the “recount” before I’m admitted to this super exclusive, semi-secret, and totally awesome new group?

The admins certainly can censor anyone they choose but Please don’t be so naive to state that other board political section isn’t hidden. It most certainly is. And no I’m not about to kiss some admins ring to request permission. I’m just glad they left here I miss them ZERO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, the comment you made that if there are no personal insults to just let people type is pure BS. You were the most heavy handed moderator in the history of the BBMB. Concur mr “no personal insults “ called me a skank last football season. . Hypocrite then and now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpberr Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 More evidence on the main board of moderators electing to moderate opinion and why it'd be a disaster here, and why the apparently unchecked moderation of opinion is becoming a problem on this board overall: Board poster PTR posted an article about Eddie Steele being fired because he criticized the general manager of the Edmonton Elks, a CFL team. I was interested to see what that was all about after seeing it on the main page. My surprise to see the thread closed after a few replies. This post was closed by Canadian Bills Fan several hours later, with no reason given. I read each and every post there and there appears to be no outward violation of board rules. No fan threatened another, no bad language used, no spamming of the thread. Now, I'm not the arbiter of board content, but if there was a rule violation anywhere in that thread, it's very hard to find. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was sanitized after being locked but one post in particular referenced part of the female anatomy to describe a mod. Though the principle of deleting posts AND locking the thread is a little weird. Pick one Edited October 8, 2021 by LeviF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
