I spent years there, mostly wandering the FF sub-forums, but wandered into the Politics forum from time to time over a 2 year period, and was banned with no warning for merely starting a thread that Joe Bullsh*t didn't like. The responses here are spot on. That place was a cesspool of censorship and almost all of it was Joe and his handpicked moderators trying to protect people's feelings. Sorry you had a bad experience but what I wrote was completely accurate. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thegeneral 3,066 Posted April 8 Not reading this thread I’m sure it’s full of the usuals crying. I don’t participated in these knitting circle cry sessions typically so will give you the breakdown of what happened at FBG’s political forum. It’s really not that complicated. The guy who was paying to host the forums doesn’t put up with people being asshats. His version of what that is is particular and specific. He got caught up banning, suspending a handful of people repeatedly, determining what was out of bounds, defining what was ban worthy. Once you start trying to curate this type of thing it becomes a quagmire. Dude got tired of it so just closed that whole sub forum down. There was no one person responsible (a small number did probably cause an inordinate amount of the PITA behavior) it was the years of dealing with the hassle. The thing, like here is free (granted there is benefit to the business to have people on there as they may subscribe to his product and this forum has these terrible banner ads) so suck it up you big pussays. That you still complain about this is pretty funny TBH. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tree of Knowledge 1,767 Posted April 8 10 hours ago, squistion said: Since the mods never identified who was banned (or why) it can't be stated as a fact that conservatives were banned more. It did seem like it was more conservatives, but maybe it was because that they were more vocal about it. That said, I do agree with your assessment of Clayton Gray. Angry guy that didn’t provide any valuable content so he was relegated to moderating the PSF (at least that’s what many people said). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And you know when JB said step away, he meant you as you were posting well over 100 times a day then.

He's just not gonna get it. even when he'd get suspended, he'd whine and complain to Joe about it, making it worse. Squish reported people SO MUCH! Over emojis, ha ha posts, you name it. He must have driven the mods insane with his reporting. This is not a stretch, you see it here. He gets butthurt all the time, about silly little things. Only difference is there aren't a bunch of censorship mods floating around that will cow tow to his whining. And Tim's reaction tells you all you need to know about him. Like I said, he was really upset when his echo chamber at FBG started allowing conservatives to post and counter his self serving arguments. What frosted them is they would report tings, the mods didn't react as they wanted, with immediate censorship, and that made them even more mad. Tim and squish can continue to lie, we already know Tim does on the regular. But I was there, I saw it daily. The board closed due to the incessant reporting, mostly by the emotional liberals who didn't like that their little protected world was changing. That's my last post on this topic. Glad we have a forum here where free speech is respected, not censored. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, feel free to call me delusional then because I don’t think I was part of the problem at all. Yes I posted quite a lot. That I don’t deny. But my posts were, as they were here, mostly issue oriented. The only time I engaged in personal insults in when I was goaded into it, unfortunately. MAGA jerks would personally insult me knowing that I wouldn’t report them; then I would respond in turn and they would report me and I got suspended a few times. Then they would post that I was the source of all problems in the forum and recommend it be shut down. The whole thing was deliberate. I finally got sick of it and after being suspended for a week left voluntarily for a month. During that month Joe shut the forum down.

Joe never told me to stop posting tweets entirely, probably because he was posting tweets himself on a daily basis, mostly in the SP.
