Let’s see. Looking at the first page you have two threads posted by liberals (or Never Trumpers), while over 20 started by Righties (or Trumpers). I guess that’s the clutter that you want to clean up?
It's mostly a college football site. It's going to be mostly straight men.
Yes, it seems that way now that the guy spamming the board hasn't posted in several days. And have you ever noticed the general make up of the posters on this board? As long as people post substantive stuff and post links for articles, the threads generally will stay up top based on interest. You want more representation of a particular viewpoint? Find more posters who can support it civilly.
Why would anyone consider threads started by people of a certain perceived political leaning to be 'clutter'?
This is a very interesting point that I think @BSC911 backed into. If there is an equal makeup (more or less) of right and left posters, but right posters seem to be starting most of the topics, what does that suggest?
To be honest, this forum has turned into a Main Board flame fest with zero real discussion. I don't have much use for it any more. Anyone who disagrees with the mob gets run off.
That is interesting since tMB used to have flame fests between fanbases and there were some doozies. But that is no longer the case, there are many great threads there with substantive convo about any number of topics. And it no longer has anything to do with fanbases, if you post something deemed stupid, you will get savaged by everyone ...
Show me the left leaning threads that are about "real discussion".
You seemed surprised that it's mostly conservatives here.
The mod had a great point about knocking off the personal insults. It just snowballs into a shitfest. We've seen a lot of it on soundoff.
To be fair, I haven’t been on TMB in years. Got tired of the KYS in every thread, although yes, it’s a much Better place for football and other off topic threads. Very good finance Discussions.
I see you locked Kalim’s thread about the hypocrisy of DeSantis’ gas tax holiday while keeping every anti Biden/Dem thread, including Press Secretary is an IDIOT“, ”No Cure for Liberal Insanity”, ”This is how your typical lefty thinks”, etc.
You miss the point, check out any thread not started by the mob and it turns into a flame fest. This site has become Thunderdome where every reject from around the Rivals network has ended up.
Keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better. GhostofUK lost over 40 pages of pure gold due to an accident. So as far as the tab is concerned, the bill is settled. Here's to looking at you in the rear view mirror in the Thunderdome. 😎
Yet you didn't see where @kalimgoodman 's first reply to the thread was to call two posters who answered him 'frauds'.
Ok, let's do that right now:
You should be thanking me for editing the above bold thread. In case you don't remember, it was originally "Is there a cure for libtardedness?"
Name calling in this post:
What is a TDS thread? Hope everybody is doing well…see ya later…
Did you hear that senile- creepy Joe Biden was raised in Puerto Rico and shortly thereafter marched with Mandela in South Africa. Sometimes we forget that the only reason he was elected president was because he is not Donald Trump.
The covid thread is a perfect example of this. Everyone SHOULD have been on the same page in that thread: Let's get the best information out there so everyone can make the best decision about their health. Instead, it was dominated by politics. If any information was presented that differed from the claims made by a certain political party, the information was attacked, the source was attacked, then the person presenting the information was attacked. It was impossible to have an intelligent discussion because a certain group of posters refused to hear any side of the issue except their own. Everyone else wanted to hear all sides to make as informed a decision as possible.
Apparently he grew up in a Puerto Rican village in the middle of Delaware. While growing up in Ohio.
Whatever village he grew up in is searching for their idiot.
Hiden's press secretary IS a village idiot. She's got the IQ of an amoeba, an uncanny skill of deflecting every non soft lobbed pitch, and/or actually lying to avoid an honest answer. The only honest way you could argue differently is to never have seen and heard her in action. She's a prime example of your beloved echo chamber.
She is very cute ...
Full disclosure, I do not read every post in every thread and rely on the board to bring things to my attention if there is something that needs it. 3 posters brought the now locked thread to me - that is eye opening.
She is, but the light eyeshadow sort of bugs me.
WH Press Corps is 11:1 liberal (this isn't hyperbole, this is the real ratio)...why isn't he mad about that echo chamber? These are the people that are supposed to speak truth to power for us.
The problem is one side has way too many factual claims to back their argument.
Recently both @Capt Ron 1 and @RayGravesGhost were warned by you to stop starting so many new threads. Two posters on opposite sides of the political isle.
I'd hope so. I have tried very hard to be fair, but you can't please everyone ...
