their superior wisdom/knowledge to others and insist that any who disagree with them about anything are"WKs" and "minion providers".  

Posters who see the world as "the clever ones vs. the losers", "the ones who know vs. the ones who need to wise up", "nobody's fools vs. sheeple", "real men with BALLS vs. WKs/manginas & minions" are more likely than not to post things that an independent 3rd party will deem offensive and inappropriate.  In short, it's not bias that leads to the removal of posts.  The feeling that the post removals "only seem to slant one way", is correct.  But that's because superior people often pride themselves in saying inappropriate and offensive things about "the minions", rather than vice-versa.  It's part of how they maintain their sense of superiority.  People who are not sure they have all the answers tend not to pride themselves on how nasty they can be to those they disagree with.  Simple.

No one rules the board and I am always perplexed when I see such claims being made.  The thinking of such claims seems to be that if lots of people disagree with what I post, it's not b/c I'm not right (or said something silly, etc.) -- it's b/c the board is ruled by dummies, backed up by biased moderators.  Sorry, not true.  To repeat, no one rules the board.  If I disagree with someone, it's not b/c I don't have balls -- it's b/c I think their claims fail my smell test.  Nothing more.  

And speaking of lame, it's time we all agreed that claims like, "no wonder this board has become so lame", is at the top of the list of lame things to say.  I have been on this board for over 8 years now -- and in those 8 years, it hasn't become anything more or less than what it is now. If you want to complain about the board, please provide a more informative complaint than, "the board has become so lame".

To remove posts.  No wonder this board has become so lame.  Just let the same group of WKs  and the minion providers rule. So much for open discussion.  Funny how what's deemed offensive or inappropriate only seems to slant one way.

..a few posts yanked after a while or not allowed.  The PC crowd, WKs  and safe - space crowd can't handle the truth or "back at yas."

Will be the same if we have a female prez.

Be in a forum where people are supposed to share thoughts and opinions.

There are many people here who walked into the room with anxiety  depression .  I have PTSD and abuse history myself .  I do NOT think negativity should be the norm .

avoid places (like this) where open dialogue is supposed to be valued and encouraged. Perhaps you should seek out a chat forum that is not oriented around adult topics if that's what sets off your PTSD.

If you don't like it stop reading it then it's that fucking simple. Other people mite like to read it. Just because you don't crawl back into you're safe space. What you think is offensive or inappropriate other people mite not.

Even at the times this board has been at its most civil, there's still been a lot of debate and disputes.  If you want a place where everyone is going to get along, this isn't it.

BSL, LYT happens to have way more reviews than you do. Don't bother banning me as I won't be seeing you. Just my personal preference you understand. I don't drink coffee, too bitter and I prefer sweet.

So much for being able to express points of view, huh? You don't see me calling for anyone to ge banned or asking TER to remove comments that are "offensive" or hurt my feelings.  No.  I respond in kind.

before you dare post, take a shower...brush and floss, swish with mouthwash.  Reconsider posting.  Go back and pluck stray hairs.  Did you forget to put on deodorant?  Go back and put it on.  Why not floss and brush again.  Mouthwash also won't be a bad idea...

 
Write and submit a post...

 
Aaaaaaaand it's moderated.  

Grrrrrr

Is using mouthwash twice really enough or should I go for 3 times?

What about if I need help washing my ass? Who can give me a hand with that? Besides the moderators I mean...

Under cover of a taboo alias?  Nice to know that you can define for us not only what is superior but who is superior. It is people like you who think they have all the answers. You think you're  superior and that hou, and only you, are qualified to determine supetiority. Joke

between reading to understand and reading to reply.  debauchedB had some pretty good things to say.  I doubt you read that to understand it, instead working on your reply before you'd even gotten to the second paragraph.  

There is a difference between conversation and attacks. Usually one requires some understanding and the other is just playing to an audience.  Which is exactly what you're doing when you accuse others of being White Knights . . . I wonder which "audience" is more productive to play toward.

There is a difference between sarcasm and intransigence.  This is something that, rather than being a fine line, is a annoying blockade.  

I, for one, rarely comment, but I often read the board.  I stop reading threads when you comment, because it is a sign that the thread has lost any value.  Over the years the board has been both valuable and worthless, cycling back and forth.  We are people with personalities and those who spend a lot of time dominating any particular corner of the internet also tend to believe they have earned privilege.  Entitlement if you will. But it's imaginary.  

Of course, you haven't made it this far, because you were crafted your angry reply in your mind many sentences ago. If you have gotten this far you might like to learn why some of us read this board. It's to gather news on the safety of this game we are all presumably playing and to get news on providers, current, past, and newly introduced. It's to find out what's new in the world's oldest game, from prices to practices to participants.  It's to be somewhere anonymously, yet community at the same time.  

Of course you can be here for some entirely different reasons, but it's not right that you feel entitled to drive others away with attacks and derision. You'll continue to do it, of course, because anyone else's enjoyment seems to be your personal vendetta to eradicate.  

For now, I'll go back to lurking.

To everyone and no one in particular: All of us that have liked this post and Debauched from above see that discussion, opinion expression and asshole comments can all occur without personal attacks or, more importantly, comment. Not every post requires the same folks to chime in with a comment. Not everything you read that you disagree with requires your comment. If a person is dick to you, no need to reply in kind because they have revealed themselves to the group as a dick. Get out of the way of assholes and let them go do their thing. If they insult you, it's from a person of no importance, so let it go. They are legends in the their own minds and you can let them maintain their private reality. "ignore" works really well for chronic abusers if you are incapable of not clicking on their posts. IF you are hell bent to be mean back, then ignore them. High Conflict Personalities (HCPs) thrive on your continued attention and willingness to affirm their relevance. Their greatest fear is to be ignored or publically irrelevant. So instead of arguing, ignore. It was so peaceful for a while when the HCPs were without an audience. Now it's too late to shove the shit back into the horse. We need to just let it lay there and dry up and blow away.  

Now all the HCPs will reveal themselves by attacking this post or handle. Mentally healthy folks can let this post sit or 'like' if they agree.
