I have been warned and snipped by mods. nod That doesn't sound like a free pass to me lol


Oh please. You get away with posting some really ugly stuff, things that others get banned over. You're here to stay buddy. Threaten my life if you want. See if the mods give a damn.

Why would I threaten your life Evil? lol Conservatives say fucked up bullshit constantly and I'm not one who ever reports it. I'd just as gladly fight back in the threads biggrin

My personal opinion on the thread subject is that banning should be almost non existent. Most of the convervatives who have been banned I think should be here. But I guess I'm saying hateful things lol

Never have and never would. I don't get how people cannot defend or stand up for themselves. But that's just me I guess. Well probably you too lol

It's very simple how this works.

If the mods agree with member's opinions or just plain like them personally, they get a pass to do whatever they want. Supa for example is an org veteran who seems to be a mod fave. He can post the most hateful and offensive posts, with no consequence.

Reporting posts to mods only works against those who the mods disagree with personally. Reports against mod faves generally go ignored, while the non faves get snipped, warned, and even banned. It's all a game of favorites.

There's also severe political bias with the mods. If you express right wing view points, watch out! The org life of a right winger generally goes like this: Express right wing opinion, get attacked personally by liberals, defend yourself, get banned. The mods like to ban right wingers because A: They don't like political diversity, and B: They get tired of getting reports from members.

The lifespan of a right winger on this site is very short unless they occasionally swing to the left and be PC. If not, the dogs will attack and someone will find an excuse to get rid of them.

One common method of banning right wingers and others who have opposing view points is to label them "trolls." Someone may have a great topic for discussion, but if it doesn't match the views of the masses, they get branded and accused of posting "offensive" material for the sake of starting trouble. It's much easier to label someone a troll than to debate their point.

The mods definitely use their power to shut people up when they disagree with their viewpoints. The org is a private site and the mods have been given the freedom to do whatever they want, but it doesn't have to be such a dictatorship.The"rules" should be more clear. The word "offensive" can be interpreted in a million ways. I can say I don't like Prince's hair style, and if the mods don't like me, they can say I made an offensive comment and then silence me.

So what it all comes down to is, be PC, express left wing view points or none at all, and kiss the mods' asses as much as possible. That's how yow survive on this site.

Conservatives have no lifespan on this site, only moderate Republicans. You have any idea how many conservatives have been banned from this site over the years? Plenty. Not because they're "troublemakers" as you guys claim, but because liberals get so riled up that they have to try to shut them up. They can't help but to make the attacks personal but it's the conservatives that get blamed for "baiting" or "trolling."

Put some conservatives in a mod position and see if shit doesn't change around here.

It's a game. Report those you don't like and want to see get in trouble.

I'd love to see a report on who clicks the report button the most often. That's be an insight!

I've only used it once, and that was for a technical problem. smile

Well I have seen supposed pictures of abortions whereas a picture of the beaten back of a rape victim was snipped and hidden. Conservatives have called us baby killers without reprise. you get away with shit to so stop playing the victim.

I don't get the ones who are so so negative about Prince and/or his music. What are they doing here? I barely have time to check out the news on here, but these people are online all day.

See, no offense Anx, but you just proved this person's point. People are immediately dismissed as a troll or an alter, even though they make a great point.

I find it funny that you start this thread and then swear and slate Prince. The Prince haters should be banned in my opinion. Constructive criticism regarding Prince is fine, but people like you think you're funny with remarks like you make above.

I'm not trying to be funny, and I think it's funny that you are an obsessed fan. I am very offended that you want to ban free speech. Go back to Music and More so that you can suck Prince's ass a bit more.
