Should we clean up off topic diversions and illogic?

    Any chance we can establish some guidance on keeping threads on topic? A certain trifecta has really made a mockery of this place. Perhaps an infraction system for logical fallacies and off topic diversions?

    Not if you behave yourself from now on :)

    If behaving myself means losing my freedom to express myself here the way I want, then the mods won't have to ban me, I'll already be gone.

    No offense, but I think the format here is fine, given the people involved. The "free-flowing nature" of it suits me lol

    Well. I'd be interested to see what the mods/owners have to say. Tis their place. They can class it up or whatever the alternative is.

    The point of this site is to keep political BS off of the other sites he owns. In order for that to work, more freedom of expression is required here than there. If the rules become more restrictive here, the other sites would soon have issues with people spouting-off political BS.

    This place is like the local bar. You may be too classy for the joint.

    There is a rather simple way to get the mods to crack down on everything. Just report everything that is against the rules and complain endlessly and they'll get tired of it.

    Not that I encourage thread hijacking.... cough....but body odor does indeed suck.

    As to Grayson beating his wife, the evidence appears to point to his wife being the attacker. Maybe you should be mentioning that Grayson is the victim here.

    Now, as to this thread, neither of you actually voted, so you are both in violation of proper etiquette and....awwwww screw it, I can't argue in a bar full of curtains and the soft glow of candles and....OH MY GOD! The candles lit the curtains on fire! Oh, the humanity! If only someone had only mentioned the fact that putting candles under lacy curtains in a bar was a bad idea!

    Now, where were we? :confused:

    Insult sophomores, lower primates and third graders.

    A true sign of desperation performed by one with no actual basis in the statements made by said person.

    Even though I didn't say which person it is.

    You all figure it out.


    Isn't this swell fun freshmeat?

    It is juvenile. And the mods disappoint me by not showing up, whatever their opinion may be.

    That's just kind of the way it works around here, fresh meat. Eventually I myself start joining in the childish name-calling and middle school taunts. When that happens I take a break from the board and find a figurative corner to make myself sit in until I've decided i can behave again.

    On the positive side, since this little club is pretty small and reasonably balanced politically you can actually post without fear of being crushed by a tidal wave of nastiness from the sheer numbers of the opposition, or being banned by the management. That being said, I agree with you that the mods could be out on the streets keeping an eye on things and enforcing the laws a little more effectively. But I know it's a thankless job.

    moron joe still hasn't addressed the news about Grayson being a wife beater! Dang, it must suck to know one of your idols is nothing more than an old, white, southern, wife-beating redneck, huh?

    I've seen 'em step in, I'm pretty sure I have. Not much though. Perhaps they leave whatever is considered normal banter for this site and its' participants alone, and step in only when it becomes really really obnoxious. I think when it's really nuts here, folks take a break. IMO
