Oh dear lord no ...

Some people get worked up over words on a screen and nothing -- and I mean nothing -- will fix that. Those people will always find a way to be offended, clutch their pearls, and fall on their little virtual fainting couches.

There is simply too much chance of someone trying to get someone else banned not because they deserve it, but simply because they thought someone on the Internet was mean to them.

Yes, there are several people who post crap in the D.C. forum not to have an honest discussion of the issue(s), but simply to get a reaction -- and that includes insulting someone's family.

But the solution isn't to ban them. It's to ignore them. There's a reason we have that feature.

Listen, most folks who have been here for more than a month know who the crap disturbers are in D.C., and even in the Lounge. Put those folks on ignore and go about your lives.

Sheesh ... it's not that freakin' complicated.

How in the hell can any adult get that riled up about playground insults?

What a bunch of guff over nothing. Frazod is coming off as the typical grade school bully, all bluster and no balls. And I had always thought him a Chiefsplanet icon....

I don't want to be contrarian

Epithet: "ballhair gobbling fart sniffer"

Epitaph:

"On the 8th of June, Fat John Fiddle went out of tune"

Let's all chip in and buy Frazod a Snuggie.

I think this really is only a realistic issue for those whose families are known in some way by the forum. For example, one of Marlboro Chief's favorite things to do is post a picture of royr17's wife and insult her looks.

Generic stuff about people who aren't really known isn't really the focus here.

Iowans snort during sex? I thought that was a Kansas thing...


Speak that way about the females of my life again and you may find yourself stabbed in the chest cavity with a frozen Turd. (frozen turd death is my favorite all time threat-recieved on CP)

Hey what is wrong with that? You just said in another thread if people bring in their personal information they deserve what they get. Now you want stipulations?

I could live without the stipulations and I certainly don't want you making the decisions if we have them, but I don't see much distinction between a rude comment about a sick family member in a prayer thread and one that happens to be in a different thread.

Forget all this bullshit, I want more information on ordering asian chicks for delivery.

you can pretty much decipher what the asterisks mean

And yet, it doesn't really bother me. For all I know though, you typed **** not ****.

For the record, it has happened to other posters in the main forum, just not within the last couple months.

How anyone could possibly give a **** what you think of their children is beyond me.
