Are these two in competition for starting the highest number of threads, they're coming out at a diarrhea like pace and the quality is to match.

As long as they stay fairly even on the numbers each post, I don't have a problem with it. I think it is important to have information available from both sides so folks can read and make up their own minds instead of just have one version of propaganda available.
However, if our exalted Board Mommy wanted to limit folks to starting no more than say, 20 new threads each day, I could totally get behind that! At some point, it would be more effective to choose wisely instead of just carpet-bombing to the point that no one reads ANYTHING!!! :whistle:

Thank you! I wanted to suggest something like that also. It gets old when other threads get buried because some people want to start 100 threads a day or more.

Although I would like to see the limited post thing, it's prolly not gonna happen. What I would really like is, when someone is put on ignore, their entire thread doesn't show up at all. THAT would rock my world! :yahoo:

Why would posts in a political section warrant limits of any kind..content violations excepted?

When I click on New Posts, all their stuff is at the top, and everything else goes to the bottom and lately a second or third page.

Exactly, almost all of us use "show new posts", all of their BS shows up in the way.

I get caught up in them sometimes, like tonight when the forums are quiet otherwise, but it's just to kill time for me. Around 11-11:30, I'm done. Daytime in Afghanistan, I get to talk to hubby for a few, then off to bed.

I expected you to think of yourself instead of the greater good of the forum. Bravo!

I enjoy much of what you post and deeply appreciate the balance that you bring to the politics forum. Having only one point of view showing up on the thread listings veers perilously close to propagandizing instead of issue discussion. Sure there may be discussion within those threads but the casual viewer would not see that at first glance. Keep up the good work - there are still folks who haven't made up their minds yet. Keep giving them an opposing view!

I would be willing to take up a collection and get Giantone his own personal forum aka echo chamber, and banish him, tommuyjo,thatguy
to only that forum, if people want to debate the trolls, they can do it there ..... tinypenis has devolved the forums to 9 yr old playground name calling .....
Nhboy can post all he wants, he posts, like mine, spark discussions, and I do not want to see that go .....
but 12 pages of giantpenis following Gilligan around with the infantile name calling is getting annoying ....

And you're contradicting yourself by calling him names, genius!

Yup... Even when you hit the "forums read" option, they quickly shoot to the top again because there are so many... It's just going to get crazier with the elections drawing near. Vrai said she can wipe out the whole politic selection, that's the route I am going to go..... so ETC and NhBoy can resume their circle jerks without an audience...

I'm unable to read what some of those peeps are posting...:evil:
I thought it was really funny yesterday: One thread had 12 posts in it but I could only read Gilligans 2 posts. The other 10 (from 4 different libs) were invisible

There was an ad on TV with a girl calling her boyfriend to tell him that she was giving him the silent treatment. He told her that she really didn't understand the silent treatment.
If you are ignoring someone yet repeatedly tell them that you are ignoring them, you don't understand the concept.

:doh: are you really that obtuse .........
having some troll on ignore = means not seeing what drivel they post .......
posting that you cannot see their garbage= trolling the troll, because ; AGAIN You Do NOT see their responses, but they have to see yours :razz:

I'm glad you get your logic from TV. If I tell them they're on ignore, they might stop replying to me. That would be my goal. I still can see some of what they post when others quote them, however. Careful, you might be next...:evil:
