We all know this is the place to come to get up to the minute news, It's on here before the news networks, It's why I love this place even news outlets have named it. I thought it was a place of open thought at least a little.

This board is the most open minded social media site I've ever come across.

If you don't believe that maybe you should look around and find a better forum website that suits you.

Religion may not be discussed, except when it is.

Every one of those things happens every day, but not all of those threads are anchored.

I don't know for sure but it was anchored possibly because after 8 pages of replies the thread had degenerated to posters saying, "Nuh-uh" vs. "Uh-huh."

When threads start going in circles they get anchored.

You love this forum, but call the mods cowards in your other thread. Find somewhere else to play and that will solve your problem.

P.S. This thread is also anchored.

Maybe not.

But it’s definitely a topic that should be anchored

It was a mostly civil thread but discussion were being had. I made sure I was anti violence and anti other, but the mods didn't agree, if we don't have an open discussion then why have an OT?

A majority of threads on this site don't "fit my beliefs."

But, unlike you, I don't whine about it...

Told you it wouldn't last long.

But if this was started by certain posters, it would go on forever.

Not sure why anyone would DV this. The moderation around here is virtually non-existent compared to other boards I’ve been on.

Having said that, it’s probably not good for the message board when the moderation (even if it’s minimal) seems arbitrary.

And…now we’re anchored.

I only wanted to know why this board that is supposed to be a beacon of information is censored to one view.

The ONLY time I've felt the admins are being arbitrary is when it involves one of my threads or posts...

Personally, I think many times, it's less viewpoint than it is personalities.

They prefer NSFW threads and could not find an intelligent conversation if it invoked their mother.
