Parker I think it is a great policy and make sure you enforce it on some of the other DC people who hardly ever frequent the Lounge either

I really don't like doing this at all. This is one of a handful of extreme cases, and I'm dealing with it the best way I know how.

I'm not about to start trolling DC and looking for people to call out.

It goes beyond that; it's not her disagreement that is the issue. It's her tactics....her constant pushing of the envelope for the sole purpose of stirring shit. That's trolling as far as I'm concerned.

Geezus H...

Posts counts have nothing to do with being a contributing member of the board.

The DC area is here just for the likes of Denise... I have no issues with that area, I never visit it b/c I like to avoid the BS.

Might as well close this thread and just accept the reality. Actually, closing this thread will just keep topics about her in the DC area... where they belong.

Carry on, I'm done.

I'm offering her amnesty and you want to argue with me about it?

As for examples, I gave them in the other thread. She's destroyed at least 2 message boards before this one. I'm sure you'll have no problem finding a place for your liberal circle jerk when this one is gone, too.

SHUT UP.
Amnesty for what? You're acting all high and mighty over a total non-issue. This whole thing makes those who were campaigning for her to be banned look like a bunch of fems, that's all. And some of those people campaigning to get her banned routinely resort to personal attacks.

There's a lot of hypocricy that goes on around here sometimes. And singling out denise for banning when some of the other long time regulars around here are far worse is hypocritical, IMO. I don't begrudge them for being assholes and they shouldn't begrudge denise for being an asshole.

You say I don't know the whole story but those who want her banned are referring to the things she says and how she says it. If that's it, that's hypocritical. If it's something that the rest of us don't know about then we shouldn't be having a poll.

I do the exact same thing. Her topics are just more "controversial".

I understand and I appreciate what you are doing.

But if this is a policy then IMHO it needs to be enforced across the board. There are several DC members that rarely post over here and contribute very little except in DC.

I've never put anyone on ignore so I wasn't aware that it quit working. Being consistent is a very good thing except when it was wrong the first time.

50 percent of the board doesn't want her here. I'm stepping between her and them - if she complies with my request, they have zero reason to attack her anymore. It's not surprising that you can't see the forest through the trees.

Get off it already. More conservatives have been banned from this place than liberals, after all that's what this is about for you, isn't it?

Were you a member of the KC Star message boards before this place was formed? If you weren't, then you don't know the whole story and that's the long and short of it.

Nope, this is the only chiefs joint I frequent.

That being said, I keep forgetting Jimmy Wilkerson is from Omaha.

I went over there and practiced last night.

Those ****sticks almost won State last year.

He's taking the correct approach. He's cutting the head off the snake. She's the lead asshat in these parts.

Truthfully, in the short term this is going to suck for everyone. That hard-headed bitch won't just leave, she's going to drop her stupidity into the Lounge more frequently. The upside is that she's also too f**king dumb to leave the politics alone and since every issue, political or not, relates to Bush in her small, twisted mind, within three months she'll have pissed off enough more people that her dumb ass will get banned.

Forum owners can do what they want. That said, during the offseason the fraction of board traffic that has anything to do with football is pretty small. If political threads are put in the DC subforum, then who cares if she's overly "political"? Pretty silly IMO to have a DC subforum and then ban someone for posting their political views.

Most of us were brought here by our connection to the Chiefs, but this board evolved long ago into a broader community discussion board -- I think that's a good thing and I hope it continues.

Also, I don't pay close enough attention to know the political leanings of the mods suggesting the ban, but I'd question whether or not this new policy would also apply to people on the other side of the aisle. In my view there's just as much (if not more) right-wing "political garbage" on this board than left-wing "political garbage".

And while some easily riled people are offended by her style, I can think of a few other posters who have been far more offensive. And I'm sure there are a lot of people who post far more frequently on DC than on the football side.

This is just a way for setting the stage so that (what she says) can piss a few more people off and then they'll try banning her again later. Seriously, htismaqe talks about this being a football board but acts like it's a sewing circle with a bunch of whining gossipy fems.

If you don't want people posting only on the DC board, get rid of it. Get rid of all of the subforums except for the football forum. That way we're all held to the same standard instead of conveniently pulling out a rarely used policy when you want to get rid of someone for OTHER reasons.
This has been the policy since I’ve been a member her, Penchief.
If you took a rational look ‘round you’d probably notice that. Want an example? Mad-Profit-Margin was a guy from Chicago that only posted in DC. I liked the guy even though I typically disagreed with’im, and he was banned ‘cause he didn’t discuss football. When he was warned, he basically said, “I’ll do what I want where I want”, the reply was, “no you won’t” and he was banned.
Denise has skirted this for years, and I don’t really understand why. She’s a troll, plain and simple, and trolls get banned. It’s what they’re for.

I misspoke.

It's not "Broken".

It's just EASILY circumvented.

You actually, whether you realize it or not, make contributions to sports threads (football, basketball, KU-Hating type threads....) that are substantive in nature....and not just mere trolling.
