No , just sick of the whining by people who insult, bait and act a fool , yet always seem to be running around playing victims

the board moderation is fine

they should go to another board , you wont find many that are well maintained like this, and are not over moderated which usually is the case, if this one doesnt seem to be giving them the attention they need , then it is their option to move it along

if not , then stay , and quit bitching all the time, its fucking pathetic and embarrassing

Geez. I'll get back to the thread when it's been cleaned .

Or at the next slur-monger strike, whichever is the sooner.

No one's been truly vicitimized until they've been donkey-punched.

Re: Slur-mongering

Moon, perhaps your complaint would be taken more seriously if you actually provided some examples.

Everybody accepts a little 'disguised' roughing-up. Heckling is an accepted part of public speaking, or should be, but blatant libel stinks. Libel 'lowers the quality of debate for everyone'.

Where's the action ?
So, do you mind if we cut to the "meat" of the issue, moon? You want to start three to five threads per day ('SPAM', if you will) about how much Israel and 'zionists' suck, and then have the moderation staff step in to hold your hand when anyone suggests that you don't like Jews?

Is that about the gist of it?

I dig how you italicize your latin. Very sophisticated

Yeah, but what kind of humour do eskimos like?

Double-on-tundras, of course.
