Just wanted to ask the membership what they think of the new forum rules and the discussions 4 weeks in. My personal opinion is that it seems that there are far LESS outright back and forth troll wars and much more readable discussions from BOTH left or right posters. Some good contributions from jazz_music, Sniper, TwoScoops, and besides the random anon that will sometimes bust in for a troll comment, it's been pretty clean. I think this is working out pretty well.

Please any input appreciated from the membership.

Keep it clean and civil though. Thanks!

So answer my question for once, rather than avoiding it in your usual disingenuous Goron fashion


I'll be honest, for the stuff I've encountered personally, you've been a much bigger problem from a personal attack standpoint.

All I’m doing is mimicking Sniper. Funny how once the Sniper is aimed at you, then you don’t like it.

So long as it’s directed at a “librul”, you’re happy to see it continue.

Very telling

And you still haven’t answered the question

Very telling

Then toss some racism and bigotry on top.

So I'm not the only one noticing it errc.

@patrick is there a reason why the anon post favorable to Goron is posted immediately while none of mine made all morning have been allowed through? They weren't the least bit uncivil either

anon_ users should not expect much tolerance for snark, since they are in effect "hiding" and attacking users who are not hiding.

Unless that snark is directed at Hillary.. Then it's all steam ahead.

Anonymous posters are cowardly pussies who are always hiding their identities. In contrast, I am very brave, so I post with my pseudonym.

@patrick

I still dont't understand what is uncivil about this:

This is what must be censored lol
59   Patrick   2017 Dec 6, 7:45am  

This is uncivil, being a direct attack on the character of another user:

Even though it's 100% true?

I thought you said its always important to speak the truth? How can i reword it so that you deem it civil enough to allow it to avoid being censored?

Are you not a little curious why he's never asked the same question to Sniper?

"Just keep it clean. Why can't you just say what you want to without bashing someone personally? That's all PatNet moderation is asking."

Everyone posting here, yourself included, knows that all the incivility stems from Sniper harassing everyone who isn't a far right winger. Does it not seem a little bit strange that Goron asks this question of me when all I'm doing is mimicking Sniper, yet he's never asked the same of (Sniper)by far the most egregious of offenders (you've said so yourself)

-29 my ass. Coordinated Campaign to go into to Private Browsing and downvoting. Far more controversial threads have less votes over years.
62   MisdemeanorRebel   2017 Dec 6, 9:07am  

No, Cowardly Anons should not have privileges and up/down voting should require a login of some kind.

So many Anons are alleged former posters who can't stay away, so trying to guess who the masked villain really is isn't really uncivil.

In your opinion.

However, when one is disingenuous and dishonest as all hell, and their intent is malicious, then yes it’s absolutely uncivil.

Anons only get one vote. @Patrick, do you know if these numbers are skewed as TwoScoops suggests?
Is it civil to call everyone posting as anon a cowardly villain?

Although I think this is working reasonably well, I am still in favor of either no moderation or rotating moderators, i.e. term limits.

You are? Can you post the comments where he said this same thing and you're mimicking him:

anon_d29c1 says
errc says
@Patrick is a Piece of Shit


errc says
Fuck Patrick


errc says
Yea i know goron, uncivil. Put it in comments jail so that others cannot see the truth, you halfwit simple simon motherfucker


errc says
Well you don’t have to be a piece of shit.


errc says
in your usual disingenuous Goron fashion


Is that acceptable civility?
67   anonymous   2017 Dec 6, 4:20pm
