Baker Boy 1,485 Posted February 24, 2020 I have to give him credit, he plays the board like a fiddle. He controls this board and has many of the posters jumping through hoops. He can change the narrative of a thread with one short post, turning it into a chit storm of redundant rantings. He is, by far, the most powerful poster on the board. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Observer 641 Posted February 24, 2020 It's guys like Utility and Mr Hand and 12th Man and Reality and Casual observer that turn the threads to sh*t. I am very opinionated. And many of those opinions are ones never heard from the guys who only watch Fox News and visit Breitbart.com. A few members actually quote me and respond and we have good debate. Others (like the ones I listed) get furious that I dared challenge their orange cult leader. So instead of keeping the thread on track, they turn it into personal attacks and childish namecalling. I've logged on the morning while eating my cereal to find that a few of them actually brought me up a half dozen times when I was sleeping. lol It's crazy how angry they get simply because I don't share their opinion.

The Observer 641 Posted February 24, 2020 IF you guys don't want threads derailed, call out the people who start with the insults instead of sticking to the thread topic. Even if the attacker is on 'your side' politically. Herbivoure actually did it yesterday to Djib13. I was posting on a subject and Djib was stalkking me and responding to every single post with insults. Herbivoure called him out on it. Of course, Djib blocked him. lol But if people would call out the one who makes it personal first, instead of the one defending himself, maybe they wouldn't be so quick to hijack threads because someone posted something they don't like. Just a thought for anyone who really wants threads to stay on track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Observer 641 Posted February 24, 2020 Just now, lickin_starfish said: Me too. I wouldn't see any of his trolling if people didn't respond to him. I've suggested that to a lot of guys who seem unable to handle opposing opinion or negative words about Trump. There are people here who like healthy debate. And aren't too soft and sensitive to handle varying opinions. Those people and I interact very well. Others see a post where I criticize Trump and wish I'd jump into a wood chipper. And quote me just to attack me personally. For some, that's probably fun. They don't ever get to talk to anyone in real life like that. Others get really worked up and I can imagine their faces turning red and steam coming out of their ears. Those are the ones who should probably just block me. It'll be good for their blood pressure.

TBayXXXVII 2,130 Posted February 24, 2020 I don't think he's all that bad. I usually only jump in on stuff where I think he's bat sh!t crazy. On other stuff, I just may point out areas that I disagree with. Nothing wrong with disagreeing though. The one biggest thing is, and this goes for every liberal, is the "lying" part. They pretend that Trump is the first person or President who ever lied and call him out to be a horrible person because of it. Of course, disregarding every other politician with a "(D)" next to their name, who's just as guilty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
