Not that I don't admire your attempt at making a stand here for a higher ground, but you surely recognize that after months of shit talking (like the run up to a fight) and finally there's an outcome, it's for naught while also de facto silencing one side where the argument was "wait and see" (sorry I'm not letting you guys live down the Natalie Biden laptop).
Most of it started long before the DNC had their first debates. I don't really understand your laptop reference, that wasn't my bag.

For 4 years we've all had a great laugh at @
Prison Rape Survivor
@Prison Rape Survivor losing his shit in 2016. He was legit wounded.


Demanding him to stay muted today is just choosing one position for 4 years then changing the standard.
I'm not demanding him, or anyone else stay muted. I'm suggesting that people talk to one another like they would if they were face to face with them. That was supposed to be what the TOS was based on when we made it as a community all those years ago.

@George Thoros would taunt any of us with "muh ballots" in real life I'm sure.
And I get what you're saying but the forum goes through ebbs and flows. There are times that we have moderating heavier and all that has happened is people complain that we are censoring them too much.
When two posters get going at each other, and both want to blow some steam off, we let it go because both have essentially consented for that. I suspect that's how they would talk to each other in real life btw.
We are only attempting to intervene when things are going too far or bring others into (racism etc) or interfering with the rest of the form (endless e beef that just won't stop polluting the next thread).

Today will be full of fireworks and hopefully things will cool off over the next couple months as it always does.

And with that said, crowd sourcing moderating so that I'm not king, but just a server technician has always been the goal so I really mean it when I say I understand your point and appreciate it.
Just know people need to blow some steam off some times and when we have stopped that in the past for immediate TOS, it has only lead to longer drawn out resentment and lack of resolution between parties.
People want to hash shit out sometimes.

What’s up with Trump’s Twitter... it appears as all activity over the last 24 hours has been deleted?

I wonder what Lynsey Graham would have to do to not get elected?

Twitter is walking a dangerous tightrope.
It’s literally a matter of time before they bannon him.

Their rules state they can’t ban him as an elected head of state with 250k of followers but their are no rules about fucking about with the fat orange cunt’s (c) twatter account.

It will drive him insane the snowflake.

It's not at all uncommon for posters (usually the same handful) to take arbitrary pot shots at other members, often interjecting themselves into interactions between other posters in order to do it. I can honestly say, I don't think I've ever said anything here I wouldn't say if me and whoever else were sitting across a table from one another, and there's just no way that's true for what is now a bulk of the posters.

My concern with "People need to blow off some steam" is that right now we're at a place where a lot of people are volatile (this is demonstrable, you can consult anyone who works in the mental health field if you aren't already aware of this or don't believe me) and as I pointed out earlier someone on the brink, doesn't need some jackwagon on an MMA forum giving him or her that last shove over the border into crazytown because it makes them feel better about themselves.
