Inane ramblings section

So, we've got a couple posters who insist on creating threads (or bumping their own chains of them) that are little more than inane or paranoid ramblings. Perhaps they could have their own section so as to not pollute the rest of the forum?

I can provide specific examples if an admin wishes...

Re: Inane ramblings section

I vote the thread should only be visible to those posters...in keeping with their paranoia, this way their identity is safer.

Re: Inane ramblings section

Sounds like a good idea.

Perhaps a section for insults and suggestive baitings as well ?

Inane ramblings would be a start at least :-)

I guess we're going to hear about how George Bush bombed the twin towers forever, otherwise.

It's been months and months since we've heard that nonsense.

LOL! I was wondering if pram meant me. But you're right, he obviously was talking about you!

Was just an example. I don't even know what the latest crapola being overloaded here is. There are some folks it's just easiest to skim right by

Apparently not, I've been sending them to you for months now.


OK, I'm really done.

Gawd, I hope not. I have a tendency to break out in hives. Not cute at all!

well you might not be keeping up.....its actually been 2 days and a very busy thread it was...it was named; "The Great- we're robbing iraqi oil, the moon landing was a swindall , bush eats babies" thread etc..


anyway, I do not think this suggestion is practical...its anyones right to post anything within confines of the rules no matter how "cheesed" off it makes us all to read the same of the same gobbleygook in another form of explanation etc...
