Life The Evolution of the Planet - Page 9

I think to understand the nature of the problem that exists here today it is important to reflect on how we arrived here. For those that don’t know, ChiefsPlanet was created to get around the vast restrictions placed on posters in KC Star. It was a huge success right off the bat and we were rolling. IMO those first months we ended up with a lot of really great posters and only a couple bad ones. As time went on CP has attracted more and more people who love not having restrictions and unlimited subjects to discuss which was great other than the fact that that many thought those threads were polluting the forum with people arguing all the time over subjects that didn’t even involve football. I posted a poll asking the membership if they wanted another forum for off topics and it passed by a landslide and the people who run this BB were gracious enough to create it and DC was born.

That has worked for a long time now with this almost no holds barred format. Once again this type of forum has been attractive to people who love the open debate that can take place here but unfortunately over many years it has attracted more and more trolls who like using the structure here to do nothing more than try to get under posters skin and will do anything in order to do that. It’s also allowed posters like frazod to thrive here being the poster child of bad psychology. Talk about no boundaries with a strong desire to bust in others and dump. This has attracted more in the like, can anyone say KCN? The trolls have grown as well in this forum in a kind of perfect storm way. What we have today is a forum saturated with trolls and posters with the psychology of a 13 year old psychopathic girl on her first period. IMO this is costing us many potential good posters who would make this a better place to come to and has also seen us lose many quality long term posters. To complicate matters the moderators that reside here are fine with posters posting anything they want about you and your family members short of a racist remark heaven forbid just as long as you don’t do it to them which is now creating two different cultures that exist within the planet. If they think that it is hostile now they haven’t seen anything yet should this persist.

IMO at this point nothing short of a cleansing designed to rid the planet of trolls and bloody vaginas that have no control is exactly what this place needs to regain its former greatness. There was a time when I posted a thread about a family member and their battle with cancer and asked for prayers and support. Today there is no chance of me doing something like that here as I have no desire to see somebody post the nastiest thing they can think of at that point. For the old timers it should be easy to see the huge difference in where we were and where we are now. My 2 cents.

If anything is bringing down Chiefsplanet it is dumb**** threads like this started by people who think they have ownership of an internet message board based on seniority.

I'd take Sorter over almost any of you old fat racist ****s with 40k posts. Except for Clay. Even though I mostly despise every single thing he posts, he adds tremendous value with his Skip Baylessery.

Works pretty well.

You can't get rid of old memories - booze just helps you not give a ****.

It's like a psychological pain killer + party starter...

Your optimism is duly noted; however, in the midst of a good season following the abortion of the past horrible years, I'm just curious as to why we can't just enjoy this ride?

JFC YOU'RE A MORON. HOW COULD YOU TAKE A QB IN THE FIRST ROUND. IT'S TOO RISKY.

JFC YOU'RE A MORON HOW COULD YOU TAKE A RT AT 1.1

That's a good point.

I think the posters in The Lounge love to call D.C. a "cesspool", but The Lounge is just as nasty and full of rancor. Probably more so.

The Lounge is a cesspool.

I disagree about that. There wasn't much division in the Grbac/Gannon debate. Most thought Gannon should start. KC folk hero syndrome.

I've got to admit that this thread is bringing even more unintentional comedy than I thought it would.

I prefer the term dysfunctional.

The majority of the posters in DC do nothing but discuss politics and occasionally come into the Lounge, which makes everything worse.
