Politics and Society Moderation Discussion Only Fans Thread
Hello everyone. I've closed the previous mod thread, and opened this to capture all issues related to moderation policie
I'm abit confused by this because P in it's heyday was heavily moderated. Personal attacks were against the rules. Then many set their own forum up - I only see some of the public stuff but it's been a moderation cluster****
If you just mean that browser doens't care about the forum then I dont think that's the case.
My comment didn't say anything about either browser or past moderators? But yes, drama about moderation has been a consistent theme on and off for that entire time period, heck that's half the fun😉
For what it's worth, my age 15-age 25 politics forum which really was the most formative was run by a sort of centrist turned fervent bush era pro iraq war type who ran the forum on his own server. One day he was fed up with people posting off-topic **** in the iraq thread and started enforcing an on-topic only rule which just about zero people followed and so he unplugged the server, went for a week long camping trip in the desert, sold the domain, came back and said I'll email the vbb archive to whoever wants to take over on some other server/domain. Someone did for a while, but it was never quite the same.
I dunno, maybe there is some life lesson burried in there somewhere😃
Nice storefront you have there, shame if something happened to it, right?
Worst you can do is issue me with a perma ban, and how on earth would ou justify that? I'm pretty good at tiptoeing to the line, when I want to.
The fact you are already making threats and looking for reasons to ban someone who is *gasp* ctiticising you should tell everyone what they need to know,.
Actually, browser, coming to think of it, can you actually link one post you have made on politics? Not a politics-related moderation issue, just, you know, the subject line of this forum. Politics. A single idea you've shared.
If not, what the **** makes you think you are qualified to moderate people who actually do?

Ok, I've missed the point then. The drama will continue whatever the mods do. As long as the forum remains there will be drama.
No one apart from mods really wants an all-serious politics forum when it contains people from the other side. Having to take those ****s seriously would be too much to bear.

He already banned Luckbox the other day for essentially talking back. In the last week, there has been Chillrob, Dunyain, Luckbox, and Trolly. So yeah...
I miss luckbox
Luckbox got the ax? Lol, found it:
Your list of topics, otoh, are not issues facing transgender people or cis people today. They are thinly veiled attempts to again question the validity of the existence of transgender people or delegitimize them.
Who gives a **** what Freud thought about transgenderism?
Also, and I mean this with the upmost respect, but **** off with your "thinly veiled attempts to delegitimize trans people", as if I care about that or that that would be something that interests me.
This is a pretty bad misread of luckbox, there is nothing in his posting history to suggest luckbox is doing some thinly veiled attempted to delegitimize trans people. I'm not a fan of luckbox's "gender isn't real" type takes, but rightly or wrongly he isn't doing thinly veiled anything and does weirdly care about **** like what freud thought.
Sure, you two both should probably not have violated the spam filter though. Me three.
I have a question for most of the posters in this thread. If you go to a basketball game, do you mostly focus on the referees?

I have made political posts but I doubt you saw them since 88 of your last 100 posts have been in either the mod thread or the general discussion thread. 😉
This is very similar to football since var was introduced. It's nearly all about the refereeing
I would mostly focus on the hot dog and beer kiosk.
I visit this forum for the entertainment and post due to disagreements that I may have with others.
Forums that try to kick out people they don't like, usually under the pretense of pretending to be offended by their presence, has been done before and it ends up killing both of those reasons. If a certain poster is to be, and should be banned from posting here, it won't just be preferred by half or so of the regs but probably by almost everyone here.
This place seems perfectly fine to me.

Sorry Uke. You made it clear in your posts attacking me shortly after I stepped down due to my wife's serious illness that you only posted in the mod thread for fun to get a response from me. So if another mod wants to engage you, great. But I wont be responding to anything you post itt in the future.
