New proposal...get rid of the political boards

Post by Honeyman » Wed Sep 02, 2020 7:07 pm

Seriously, MW. Your site, which you labored long and hard for, gave much of your hard-earned to, is turning into a complete shithole. At least down here on the Other Stuff end of things.

My buddy Vic Doucette pm'd me to let me know he's leaving the site after 15+ years. You gotta know the reason why. He got sick of the bullshit. I mean, do you really want a site where gay bashers post their filth and idiots post stupid memes constantly, while the real good guys like Vic, true lovers of radio and those you probably put the site together for, leave the site?!?

There is a thread titled, "Fag proposes fewer penalties for fags committing fag crimes" here now. Is this really what you envisioned when you started this thing?

Solution...get rid of the political forums.

Just for the record Honeyman uses the same language, so dig up how many times he has said the same actual words. Again just for the record. What’s good for one is good for all.

The political forums are here to stay. If you don't have specific forums, it will bleed into the other spots.


Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.

Maybe, but it kinda gives free reign to the trolls.

How about just not visiting a particular forum if you're somehow offended by it? There are plenty of other forums here that don't discuss politics.

A reasonable suggestion. And you might be right.

But some longtime contributors, not just Vic, are leaving specifically because of the vitriol. If this is meant to be a board to discuss Michigan radio, why should those boards even be here?

Maybe we just abandon those forums an let the trolls just troll each other.

After a while they'll tire of it and go away.

There are twenty four sub forums on this site, with TWO dedicated to politics.

Sip on that for a second.

I know...you're right, turk. But it's like that car crash on the side of the road you gotta slow down and look at. I can't help myself.

I understand that. But the board was designed to discuss Michigan radio goings-on and has been aborted. Websites about football don't talk about hockey.

Right, so use the other twenty two subforums to discuss Michigan media.

Ignore the Pol Pot... if you have the discipline, that is.

Oh... and Turkeyslop?

You are a foreign national and a communist agitator. Your opinion regarding United States politics will not be missed.

Buh bye.
