War Room Lounge v98: “Yes I’m a gangster and I committed that crime.”

Not open for further replies.
You know, this is supposed to be the War Room. There's a reason its called the War Room and not the safe space room. And yet, this is literally the only place on the entire board that people regularly tattle and whine about what people post and try to get them dubbed or banned over it. Never do I get messages from mods or get tattled on anywhere else on the entire site, and thats coming from a guy with over 100k posts.
Bunch of babies you are. "Waaahh. Ruprecht, Seano's words made my vagina sore. Please make them go away!"
And then on top of that, the only place to have a free discussion is in a thread made by a rat tattle tale?

What a joke this forum has turned into.
I mean unfortunately that's not surprising. Its the political subforum so I think tempers will run much higher and therefore people will be more likely to try and catch one another for posts worthy of reports for whatever reason.

I mean why would anyone report anyone else in like the P&M for instance? Or the grappling forum? What, you don't like the other guys taste in women or his preferred pass? But here its easy to see why a riled up leftist or conservative might be out to get one another.

It is still lame though (I mean reporting people over your political disagreements is lame)
 
Come on now, the guy was moved here against his will so let's not dogpile him for being a bit irked about it.

Bolded-
Thats supposed to be the entire premise for this forum. But is it? No.

I don't think people are reported over political disagreements so much as they are reported for being tremendous shits while talking politics. Some of the former, sure. But a lot more of the latter.
 
but then you said this:



that's all we're doing in here. conversing. why do you see it as a "circle jerk"?
Because of who makes it home.

Do what you feel. I'm a big boy who can handle words. You won't find me crying to the admin over it, unlike some.

No, people are constantly reported over what are essentially political disagreements. It's just we only act on it when they are actually being tremendous shits.

What, reporting someone because they annoy you? I mostly agree. At some point you have to report people to facilitate a certain bare minimum moderation or else it all goes to shit. But people should generally not resort to it so quickly just to score points. I rarely report people, I think one time I reported ole bushman because he was condoning the ethnic cleansing of the Uighurs and I had recently attended a talk by an Uighur so it kind of struck a nerve. But I like to think that was a reasonable report.

Yeah true, kind of a paradox I guess. I just think people are going to take the discussion on this subforum more personally since political beliefs are more likely to be a pillar of one's identity and therefore more likely to be vindictive with reporting.

Well, we all know the people who fucked that up for us.

last week I made a joke & @Cunningham reported me. which was "I'm Canadian & jokes against Trump are personal attacks against me".

I had my post deleted, but never complained about the mods. rather, I just kept stressing, like I am now, much of an SJW snitch ol' "lack of cunningham" really is. it was he who was bitching & whining about the mods & I won't lie, trolling him to his point was great:

Everyone of my posts you deleted had multiple likes (not that I care about the like system) probably dozens in total.

How many complaints did you get?

Likes aren't a good measure of anything. The posts I deleted were you responding to Rational Poster saying you weren't worth conversing with by saying that all he does is post memes and that he's just a "liberal" that patronises minorities.
It wasn't on topic. It was trash.

I post off topic all the time in other forums with all sorts of people. We have ridiculous conversations in the boxing forum all the time. No one complains. Here though, one of 2 sections on the site where you're supposed to actually expect shit talk, its off limits. Its stupid.
