At that point, just straight up ban political talk.

What's more, I think reddit found out that r/the_donald was spawned by the echo-chamber created by their upvote system.

The problem is that people like me and FavreFan seem to have been drafted into the liberal sect based on the fact we aren't big fans of the current people in Washington.

The post would not be deleted. The thread would not be deleted. It just would not appear without having to click 'view this post' when scrolling through a topic.

It does not seem as if the board has a majority liberal sect anyway, does it?

I don't envision the system being used to simply hide certain opinions. The threshold would be tweaked to prevent that. But it would be used to hide low quality troll posts. And those that like troll posts still have the opportunity to engage.

It's the first political thing we've agreed on in 11 years but now we are on the same team. What a world.

get rid of all the shitty posters and useless forums that have no business being here.

Sports, entertainment, food....that's pretty much all that should be covered here.

I don't think we would ever silence conservative views on this board. The board is probably more conservative anyway. While JORR and Crest appear to be aligned with each other politically at times, we all appreciate opposing views.

Not a fan of this only for the simple reason that unpopular opinions are part of the board's history.

Sure less alt right talk would be great, but idk if the Reddit model is the way to go about it.

I could be wrong like usual tho.

BagHead with 1 low-t tried that a few years ago. All it did was make the political bullshit permeate all the other sections like the miserable virus it is.

How about an age limit here? I'm tired of zero respect. Also, it would be great if the moderators of the forum took action against all the punks that like to edit/alter my posts. That is liable in a court of law.

Add up/down votes. Poster gets enough down votes in a thread, they are locked out.

Why are you such a baby about literally everything? You make Seacrest seem mentally fit.

What in my post is baby-like? It's not a secret that upvote-based forums create standing waves of popular opinion and tend to silence (or "hide" them, because apparently that's different) dissenters.

An upvote/downvote feature would be cool. I don't understand the logic behind hiding downvoted posts though. Anyone can block/ignore/foe list any poster they want to, the board doesn't need to do it for you.

Some type of like button on posts? Maybe some type of notification systems, that when someone likes or responds to post? Also would be able to jump to that response in the thread by clicking on that notification.

It wouldn't take but five minutes before people are creating mults to upvote themselves because they are so thirsty for likes.

I mean, if the secret FB cabal wants it, then it's prolly gonna happen.

If you add someone to the foe list, you can't see any of their posts in any thread. Sometimes you just don't want to read Hawk being a douche in the politics thread, but it doesn't mean you don't want to read his sports thoughts.

I think his sports thoughts are equally bad but I don't know why people don't just autoscroll past The Hawk or LTG/JLN/Ogie when they get in their groove. It's pretty easy to skip past or ignore posts you don't care to read.

I agree. Disagree without being disagreeable. Gets old after awhile but it seems that some people are incapable of doing that. Same spin and the same personal attacks. Its weak after awhile.


In addition to this is the alliances that some (not all) have formed based upon off site fraternizing. It obviously determines the way in which they post. The "you wouldn't say this to me face to face" "nice guy in person" "next board outing" "last board outing" rule provision applies to this group. There is no way that this doesn't influence the way that some people post. It also leads to dislike of some (not all) that choose not interact outside of this place. In essence its too cliquish on here.
