ChiefsPlanet Posting Political/Religious Threads in the Main Forum - Page 6

Frazod · 03-01-2010, 12:07 PM

Eventually a mod shows up to move the damned thing, but this has been happening way too much lately.

We have a special playground for all your politards and bible thumpers/haters for a reason.

I propose that from this point forward people who do this should lose their thread starting privileges, at least temporarily.

This poll should have went away with it also....

I'll wait.

but as usual, others continue to "violate" your delicate sensibilites.

That's very funny and I actually like frazod and patty.

Nice passive aggressive deflection.

This was a public poll. You going to go cry at the other 46 people who voted yes, or just me?

Oops, sorry. 47.

you responded to my post with a paasive aggressive deflection, hypocrit.

as someone said earlier, if it's blatant, then so be whatever the mods decide.

..the fact remains that this board was created due to people like denise crying to the admin of the Star board..

If I were a moron who found myself in a spirited disagreement with somebody on the internet, I'd never resort to passive aggressively attacking them.

I've been criticized for having posted political threads in the Lounge over the years. I made it clear that it was an accident and requested that it be moved or deleted. Proof of that fact is that since we've added the required thread labels, I never again accidentally posted a thread in the Lounge. I always catch it when the list of labels aren't the ones from DC.

Point is that there is now no excuse for posting a political or religious thread in the Lounge.

I'd support a thread-starting ban for anyone posting political or religious threads in the DC.

It's deliberate rule violation that shows the person is deliberately breaking the rules.

Straw man indeed. Oh, you're so repressed, Stevie. How do you bear it?

This isn't censorship. Becky didn't steal Dole's login and delete patteeu's thread. Really. BTW, I was here at the beginning too, so spare me your horseshit ChiefsPlanet history lesson. These threads are just getting moved where they belong. Separate but equal may not have worked in the South, but it works just fine in cyberspace. Nobody is telling any of what you can or can't post. It's just a matter of keeping it in the proper forum - the forum that was specifically created for it at the urging of the vast majority of the BB members.

Awesome.

I say we just delete all the sub forums and let it become a free-for all.

You don't even address the biggest issue here. The biggest issue is the gray area between news/current events and politics and the way that line has a tendency to shift depending on who the poster is. As someone pointed out early on, this thread could be considered political, but since Frazod posted it, he's not available to whine about it.

I'd say I've made my point, unless you have some patteeumatical equation that can prove that 30% somehow beats 70%.

Feel free to see about getting this relocated anywhere you want, although I guess we'll have to get it removed from your ass first.
