Why do the mods allow this dumbassery here?Not sure why I bother with this place any more
Say ’Picasso’ fast 3 times. It sounds, and especially in this case, looks like a Pink AssholeOh look Picuntso speaks. Why don’t you take your fake news polititarded BS and crawl back under that rock in the OT.
You’re just another cowardly fake news foreign twat…
Go swill your Soy with your boyfriend III.
I'm letting the "dumbassery" slide; peeps will be peeps.Why do the mods allow this dumbassery here?
But are politics allowed in the main forum?I'm letting the "dumbassery" slide; peeps will be peeps.
Deleted posts with foul-language name-calling 'though 'cause it was repeated a lot and became a bit much.
SO ANYWAYS.....
Anyone on the board happen to go?
Now that was funny.I was there, but I was stuck standing behind some guy who was wearing a huge cowboy hat, that kept yelling "Cucks!" at the stage, so I really couldn't see or hear shit.
A comment here or there doesn't constitute a political discussion. It's nearly-impossible to micromanage these sorts of transient references; you see this in most online forums. Only those that're staffed heavily and Hell-bent on sanitisation bother with such things, and even then, one ends up with a community walking on eggshells, a great increase in trigger-reporting and indeed a tendency for folks to hesitate to post when they would otherwise.But are politics allowed in the main forum?
Because it seems that is the trigger for things to go south. If people are allowed to bait others with political comments, it only devolves from there.
I really dig it.Why do the mods allow this dumbassery here?

Exactly. This.But are politics allowed in the main forum?

I have no issue with you, MM; but keep in mind the initial Political post was the reason for any and all responses by me or anyone else.I have no vested interest other than in doing my job, mate; I already explained the criteria by which I judged what to delete in this thread.
Of course, I couldn't help but notice that your posts were the greatest contributors, so I hoped that you'd have seen and understood my explanation (which I didn't have to provide) 'cause I did feel bad for you about that ratio. Nobody likes to have his posts removed. I simply scoured the thread and nuked "C-word" posts in order to sanitise the argy-bargy. FWIMBW, I didn't delete the quotes of your posts, so any effort you put into them wan't totally in-vain 'cause some context will remain.
To reiterate:
It was the "foul-language name-calling" that "became a bit much". Overuse of the "C" word just took things into the gutter IMHO, not something anyone really wants to see in the main RT forum. I don't believe in micro-editing / deleting stray words or whatever, but in this case there was a persistence of targeted language that IMHO rendered what would otherwise have been "fun dumbassery" unpalatable.
Again, I hope you understand mate. I simply did what I felt had to be done; it didn't matter who said it, only what was said and more-importantly, how. Again, the odd "stray" unpalatable comment / use of language here is inevitable, but I was "asked" to do something about the vibe of this thread so I stepped in and took the barest minimum of action so as not to take all the fun out of it.
Take care man. HTH.
My dude..the italian cowboy artist is clearly:Hmm... big guy wearing a huge cowboy hat and a little green guy who looks like Yoda.
You two'd make a perfect Vegas act.
I hear ya bro'; good point.I have no issue with you, MM; but keep in mind the initial Political post was the reason for any and all responses by me or anyone else.
Again, I have to ask, is this now ok to post in the main forum, or not?
Take care, Brother 3. Hope you're well, mate.
