Precision Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 I think a "community ban" feature would be useful. If a large enough percentage of active posters (say 90%) vote someone off the island they get booted. This would clean up a lot of irrelevant posts that come from a few individuals. I could see it as a help to Irv as it would likely push "problem children" off the board before he needs to intervene. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have zero desire to interact with communists. That's where the ignore feature comes in. The only improvement I'd need would be blocking the quoted posts of ignored commies. Other than that it works swimmingly for me. Tag and ignore. Ignore and tag. The only improvement I'd need would be blocking the quoted posts of ignored commies.

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted May 13, 2023 Author Share Posted May 13, 2023 (edited) As a side note, it’s become clear just how mentally ill BT is. I ask all posters to use kid gloves. We can together help I hope. This person is in a dark place. I feel bad for ignoring it. I might un ignore just to give it attention Edited May 13, 2023 by Over 29 years of fanhood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This board is not here for you or me, it's for the community of posters. If the community doesn't want a poster here, collectively they should be able to ban them. I'm not in favor of banning people with different opinions, it's more about posters who are spamming and name calling on a consistent basis. Honestly, I only see 1 poster that needs to be banned but that's me. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanNC Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 I would say the very best way to make it better would be to ban all commies. Except that would make me a commie too and I'd be subject to my own ban. So I'll just continue to follow my bedrock principles and say let the commies run their mouths 24/7 here. It will be great to have the receipts when their beloved movement begins eating their own in earnest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case here’s to every other cruiser and potential cruiser alive in the world that they can power through their excursion without rage-posting/name-calling on a little-read message board.

Now apparently MAGA can’t stand discourse on an anonymous message board. What a bunch of snowflakes. Discourse is great. No one should object to that. It's the name-calling, bomb-throwing, and idiotic memes by certain keyboard warriors that some of us are referring to. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
