I'll be honest I'm also posting on several different forums and I kinda see the same thing happening. There's no middle ground people seem to have chosen either left or right and are full of animosity, one side gets eventually "bullied" out. I blame the (social) media for fueling this And I see a divide between white and minority posters who used to get along just fine before who are now splitting in two, same here at SW Edited August 13, 2020 by bhytre 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bill burr had a bit on his podcast, and during interviews about how even the statistics are abused or rather just used to further cement your own ideology. "You bring in these stats, that you found at I'mright.com, download them, and just carry on!" I will also say, the reason for the rise of believers in shit like Q Anon, and the various theories around Covid-19 is that trust in our institutions is at an all-time low; but it doesn't help that those very institutions have been lying - or at the very least; obfuscating the facts from people to have an honest dialogue.

Man that E-grudge you have runs so deep that you resort to making shit up. When everyone came back to System wars...and Politics threads were being posted in between game threads. I was the one who created the Political thread and stickied it. And GD and I would move all political discussion into that one thread. Even after I was not a mod, I have yet to create ONE POLITICAL THREAD outside of the designated areas, be it the thread or the political board. You can count the political threads I've made on your fingers and they alll created were in the designated areas. I followed the rules I helped create. The same "all-star" cast he is referring too (RaniK, JONB, Bhytre, DynamiteCop, SheepKilla, Vinni etc)..... they would CONSTANTLY not follow the political rules and would constantly post threads on the main board and constantly bring up politics in gaming discussions. Then when their threads got merged to the political thread (or moved to the politics board) they didn't like the counterpoints to their BS talking points that they couldn't defend and would constantly get mad and take shit personal. So when the "new" rules for bans were recently implemented that same all-star cast that couldn't follow the old lax rules and who would start political discourse and get mad when they got cub stomped..... those same posters were happy and giddy with excitement (Which I found hilarious)... because they only saw the responses to the discussions that THEY STARTED but didn't have the self awareness to realize that they were the ones creating the issue they hated. What happened next is, almost all of them got bans THE SAME DAY the new rules came out because they kept bringing up political talk in gaming threads, couldn't control themselves from posting bat shit crazy conspiracy theories and couldn't contain their racist posts. Now those very same posters are crying that the new rules are killing the board activity and killing their "charisma"... the same "all star cast" that was giddy with excitement for the bew rules. oh and seek help for that E- grudge bro Edited August 13, 2020 by Goukosan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's why I started calling his role in Jerry go round the "Lemij selt ownage train" (it runs express and never stops... Choo Choo) because he constantly complains about Jerry go rounds.... yet he would spends pages upon pages upon pages ridding it. The lack of self awareness by him was and still is hilarious Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cell 420 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 I’m still wondering who exactly these ‘all star charismatic posters’ are who have supposed to have left? Who are we talking about exactly? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
