This is correct. The mods are very limited in what they can do. I assume the admins have more power.
Edit: F*ck it, let's leave this thread up. Keep the babies occupied.

Correct it will be but at least i will be able to read posts of some banned on twitter. If it censors all libs i will leave it. A site where everyone agrees is just boring. I can just talk with people i agree with in real life if I want that.
Ok, I will ditch the ultra hard right, Gravy Seal side azz for a minute to make a serious, hopefully productive comment.
I'm a member of several other boards on other sites. They have strict, yet well demonstrated boundaries. Once a threads starts to go off the rails, they utilize public, totally transparent notices to the members to veer back onto the rails. Everything is very transparent and public, until that .1% needs to be "put in the corner" for a bit.
The posters themselves on those site's do a dang fine job of staying in bounds and self moderating because of that transparency and non partisan application.
While this site is a sh$thole, there are many here I would almost assuredly be able to have a fun conversation over a drink or a doughnut, and enjoy the entire experience. The only thing that stops the "normal" type of conversations here, is that the veiled "moderation" of this site seems like it's a CNN break room water cooler with a sponsored by Soros bumper sticker.
With that, I will admit that I can post better. I can post to discuss instead of ruffle. I am part of the problem, but I will help to fix it if you help also. Be better equal leaders (mods) and I am sure everyone will follow, and we need it.
God, I hope that I am not going to regret reading this in the morning.

I just hope it cost twatt'er and facebook big $. I would love more people to tell them to go Zuck themselves.
**I got permission to use that from the originator. It's freaking brilliant!
You’re a Trump denier. You deny that he has any influence or any future. Well, at least you used to. I don’t know if you’ve seen the light or not.
Freebies having a hissy fit to the point the freebie mods dumped it here.
Yes everyone knows that.... but so fkn what. All this bitching about being blocked for idiot posting in one thread, that was your own thread?
Their stocks are tanking. I have not been on facebook in five years. Never liked it anyway. Just people full of themselves. Have not missed twitter in the least honestly. The only thing that sucks is i cannot check certain posts on my kids sports on twitter. But i simply wont support twitter. This is the last topic on the water cooler i will post on which will make the libs happy as hell. I will certainly post on the bbal board that is fun and non cencorsed. But once a board starts censoring people it disagrees with really no point being on it anymore. Just give them what they want. 100% compliance with one view and they should all be happy as hell from here on out. Wasnt that the goal anyway.
I just wanted one real discussion in this dumpster fire of a forum.
Good post and good luck to you. Have tough armor for the name calling coming.
You do understand that you are the one usually doing the name calling, right? Or are you really that removed from reality?
I think it’s a great idea. When this one runs its course, make another one on another topic. Just One at a time.
The books thread has been 99% BS free.
It’s actually a new idea if you think about it. I think to some degree this board got fractionally better when the moderators threw up their hands couple years back. But here what you’re doing is creating an example of proper posting which stands in contrast to the other threads. Who knows, that might lead to people just (accidentally?) getting used to posting better.
What about the Wordle thread?! Lol.
But also politics free. The real pudding needing proof is a politics centric thread.
Only because the shit slingers are illiterate.
Only half true. The shit boomerangers are literate but just having fun with this illiterate. If two didn’t tango it never would persist.
Yet you would not answer a simple yes or no question, if you are the one who revoked my privileges or not. Is that your definition of "I won't hide"?
GinvertebrateOAT ! WORM! Own it, stand up and then I will be better.
I can't translate this. Sorry.
If you are banned from that thread, then I probably did it. Happy?
Too bad the software couldn't allow every thread starter to block people from their own threads.
To be honest, that used to bother me although initially I wouldn't admit it. Then I noticed over and over and over, postings that were totally self destructive to our way of life, while promoting their superiority. Once I noticed it, I really don't care any longer. Many "left" on this board have ideas that will and are destroying our way of life. It's one thing that it hurts my way of life, it's totally another thing that it's like they are slicing their own throats and won't listen to the "community moderators" who are trying to warn them, to save themselves.
This particular online community should be evidence enough that social workers instead of cops won't work. The other problem is, the entire concept doesn't effect middle America much, it totally hurts the urban areas we all want to improve. Why would "THEY" want to bring more destruction to the urban area? hmmmm?
Honestly, your partial ownership will receive my partial acceptance.
We both know that what I posted was controversial (but 100% true). How about I promise to clean it up, and you replace my privileges?
If I eff up again you can totally ban me, all sites, and I will not question anything. .... But you know what I posted was 100% true!
Any conservative thats posts on other topics good luck. They may keep a few on you on so they have someone to attack. But other than that once they started the purge just leave honestly. There really is no point just stick to the bbal board.
He's not safe either. After Bailey, DANC, Joe, myself, etc are banned they'll come for him too eventually with that hammer.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
I wish we still had Trump as President. The world would be a better place.
