Aside from that, I contribute to the MMA forum (unlike 80% of the lounge), I'm one of the most prolific contributors to the "need a laugh?" thread, and I start a bunch of random threads that have absolutely nothing to do with politics and are just there to hopefully generate some amusing discussion.
BeardOfKnowledge @BeardOfKnowledge contributes more.

Out of interest, when's the last time sparkuri was pinked for personal insults or name calling?

Because I haven't seen his name in pink a single time. Seen plenty of bile-filled, multi-paragraph torrents of abuse from him, though. Directed at a few different people, too.

I try but it's always just arguing....Just don't have the energy for it
There is a shortage of random non argumentative threads. The most prolific thread starters tend towards being conspiracy types. If few random threads are being started, then it becomes dominated by breaking news events (usually political in nature) or "here's a random article I copy and pasted from a right wing blog, except I offer no comment with it and I'll get pissy if anyone does anything other than unquestioningly buy into it completely."

One of the best threads I ever saw on a forum was a poll - "Do you stand up to wipe, or not?" and it turns out that there were two tribes pretty much split right down the middle, all sorts of unlikely alliances, and neither tribe had any idea that the other even existed. :smile:

Another random one was "Prime for Prime - Anna Kournakova vs Gina Carano" and after all sorts of picture galleries and arguments about Photoshop and who looks like they fuck better and exciting changes in lead and momentum, the poll was eventually called at 100 votes, with the score standing at 51-49.

Or, if nobody makes random threads, then it's gonna be breaking news, the same 4-5 longstanding threads, and a few more Covid conspiracy/tyranny threads. And not much but, unfortunately.

How long is John Lee a political prisoner for?

Does the fact you can’t tag him mean he is permanently banned?

Wasn't JLP a return of a previously banned account, or am I thinking of someone else?

Really? He just arrived in May 2018 like a wrecking ball through the lounge window, never having posted here before?
That is just how he is from what I can tell.

I could be wrong and he could have been a resurrection.

He comes strong and goes hard in the paint most of the time, maybe too hard.

Very passionate about the politics.
