Toddy can't make a thread over there without at least one person insulting him within 10 posts of being gay. The hypocrisy in the board is astounding.


I think what winds up happening most times is that you have a large number of asshats that can't disagree with a differing opinion without resulting to insults, so the decent conversation gets derailed when the first insults are thrown out.

I've had really great conversations with center / left people there before. You could have great discussions, just have to weed out the troublemakers. It would be really nice if you could control the threads you create (blocking posters from them, deleting posts, etc). I know that would kill traffic, but it would certainly improve discourse.

The poliboard now is worse than I've ever seen it. Hopefully after elections, some of the morons will clear out. It may be a safe bet that a sizable portion of the poliboard now have an average IQ well below 90.

CFBR, you do try to have good discussions and I appreciate that.

You know, I do occasionally spout off wise arse remarks or post something that is a little provocative, but that's primarily because of the overwhelming sentiment and constant drumbeat on the board. But there are some conservative posters I truly respect and with whom I would love to have more reasoned discussions.
