Complaints

[Typhoon]

. . The truly great are almost universally humble, while pretenders need to strut and swagger.

A nice point, Skin Job, and nicely taken.
"Ye shall know them by their hubris" . . .
Works for me . . should be the motto of these fora . . .

People who have conversations with their sock puppets are pathetic.

I went back and clicked on "Display this post" in order to find out what generated the subsequent exchange that was moved to Hell. No problem with that.'

But why wasn't F's bullshit post (above) that started the whole thing not moved to Hell as well? It's plainly ad hominem abuse of me/Skin Job.

Valid complaint. It was missed. Sorry.

[Typhoon]

I dispute the notion that the OP, or the moderators for that matter, have the authority to define what sort of ideologue the phrase "these guys" encompasses.

Either I don't understand you correctly or you don't understand how a forum works.

Oh, I understand. You have the authority to move, delete, or ban, but you don't get to decide what words mean to us. Sorry to impugn your presumed omnipotence, sir.

Well, you sure showed me!

I'll remind you to keep a civil tone when you address the staff. You don't pay them to take your guff.

I would like to remind impassioned posters to keep a civil tone with each other:

viewtopic.php?p=65#p65

It's okay to say "I disagree . . . " rather than "You #@$#%$^%&^*! . . ."

That chip on your shoulder must really chafe.

Listen, the OP starts the discussion and the mods keep it on topic. What the words mean is something we are supposed to find out through discussion. If Ibrahim says "these guys are Republicans", it's up to you to disprove him or to ask for proof or whatever. That's how a forum works. Complaining about definitions is useless. Either prove him wrong or stay out of the thread.

[Skin Job]

You are right. I'm sorry.

[YMix]

You are right. I'm sorry.

No problem.

Why is such an important post that I posted in "American Politics and Society"
landed in Hell ? ?

Lawrence Wilkerson is a retired United States Army soldier and former chief of staff to United States Secretary of State Colin Powell .. he saying some forces in America pushing for war with Iran .. similar to when they pushed to war with Iraq

Is this not the most important news of the day ? ? ?

This Romney campaign is control by War mongerers .. Bolton & company

Has this to be in Hell ? ? ? ?

this shows biased

[YMix]

Because you spammed two subforums with the same post.

It's interesting to watch moderators participate in thread hijacks.

At what? Stating the obvious? This is the best i can do.

You are correct in noting that the debate on population growth vs resources is too far removed from the original thread topic.

However, your manner in stating it does come across as a bit petulant.

[YMix]

At what? Stating the obvious? This is the best i can do.

By page 6, 7 or 9 of a thread, the conversation has already spread to any number of topics, related or not.

As threads tend to do

Also a valid point. Mencken, eugenics, and biblical literalism are unrelated to the the original thread topic.

However, I suggest that we let them be for now.

[Skin Job]

May I be perceived as waggish rather than petulant when pointing out that some digressions are more equal than others!

I'm enjoying the wide-ranging discussion.

[Miss_Faucie_Fishtits]

yuss....... my bon mots are better than some others.....'>.......

[Farcus]

What a lovely bunch of coconuts.

[Enki]

Reads like these Republicrat and Demopublican states deserve each other.

What are you gonna do?

Merge them.

Your tendency toward massive disorganized mega threads is the worst thing about this forum.

According to the board counter there are 1061 threads. Too few for yew?

[Parodite]

From the Pakistan to Hell thread, the Mod remarked before locking the thread:

It's a constant source of bemusement to me as to why anonymous posters become so emotional and petty when another anonymous posters disagrees with their personal worldview.

Posters merely disagreeing??? Now that's bemusing...

Whenever you open your mouth this is all too clear.

It comes as absolutely no surprise that some posters, those that are only capable of perceiving their own grievances, will

1/ completely miss the point; and

2/ act in a manner that only serves to reinforce my observation.

Indeed you entirely missed the point, which is no surprise to me.

That someone on the internet called you a naughty name and now you're having a temper tantrum?

No need to mention it. It's self-evident.
