Trolls

Lately this forum has been invaded by Trolls. Nazi and Stalinist views, ''World News Weekly'' type of propaganda ,Ultra Right and Left fascists (both feed each other very well). The quality of the posts going down, in sharp decline. Why you think this is happening, you agree,?

Re: Trolls

It especially affects the "current events" sections like "US politics". My suggestion would be to reduce these "general topic" forums and "force" posters to address a certain topic, rather than to dump partisan bullshit.

I agree.

That's why I don't come here as much. Politics is looking more and more like a subject only discussed by lunatics and flakezoids. While ranting and raving along with a large group of nutcases IS fun for awhile it fizzles eventually.

Guess I'll get off to a GWAR show :-)

Re: Trolls

The just for fun section should now be called the smear the democrats section. It's okay to post drivel as long as it's in that section apparently.
