In the almost 6 years or so I've been on this site, I have enjoyed a lot of great posts and some that were/are cringe worthy.

It appears that in Prince Non Music and More forum that there is a different consipracy theory thread starting every week. Granted, some of these are delusionally entertaining, but it turns into name calling, race baiting, and sometimes, utter stupidity. Critical analysis is one thing, but when a thread morphs into name calling and in depth analysis of the history of these "societies" then it becomes less about music and more about intellectual grand standing.

Mods, would it be remotely possible to create a sticky in P&R named "Conspiracies" or something and have any thread started with "Illuminati", "dark forces" or "devil" (or any other allusion to conspiracies) moved to the sticky? There currently is a thread in P&R that is about this kind of thing and for the sake of turning the non music forum into discussions on the occult, could these be merged?

Just a suggestion, but I think there are many of us on the Non Music forum that are just tired of the Illuminati talk.

I see no remote possibility of that in the P&R Forum ... and if I am wrong Ben will inform me

Ya gotta love these conspiracy nuts. Your Aunt Sally can't keep a secret, never mind a whole group of people where one spilling the beans would net himself millions of dollars.

But, hey - it keeps the riff-raff off the streets.

all the mods are members of the illuminati, so won't create any stickys on the subject

just watch this, this post will be deleted swiftly by a mod, my account will be deleted and i will never be seen again on this planet

if that is not evidence that prince is the leader of the illuminati, then what is? they faked michael jacksons death and made madonna look old

I don't get the joke. If you guys want me to leave just come out and say it.

I'm not saying that I want you to leave; that is not my intention at all. I just thought that what Nik posted was funny. Please don't take it personal.

The joke is that whomever clicks on the link, their name is put in there.

amen. keep the crackpots on the crackpot forum!

Excuse you, but you are one of those main orgers (along with Meow84, Paris, & minneapolisFunq) that are guilty as charge for the unnecessary name-calling, flamebaitings, & giving out ugly attitudes at other orgers (especially me) simply because you would stop at NOTHING to censor people that you dislike and/or hate for having something to say about conspiracies.

And you know exactly what I'm talking about. You do these tactics all the time at me regardless if it's my threads or (in most cases) other people's threads. And I will tell you right now in front of Ben & all of the past/present mods that are reading this now that I'm sick of it.

We should always agree to disagree. But whenever we disagree, let not use that opportunity as a license to be rude to the people that you are disagree with.

Just saying.

These threads don't belong in the music forum though. They are a discussion on religion and should be moved accordingly.

I agree 100%.

Thats what I am trying to express. The details of this, that, and the other are so detailed, they sometimes railroad a music thread from its original purpose (e.g. Kesha) to something that leans heavily on the P&R side.

Sometimes they can be interesting reads, other times not. They just seem to be a better fit in P&R
