The board

Posted: Sep 10, 2012

The following has been done. 1. Deleted all condescending remarks to other posters or making fun of them. 2. Deleted all bickering. 3. Edited/deleted any words altering a political parties name to something obscene. 4. Deleted comments that have nothing to do with the subject matter being discussed. 5. Deleted obscene pics of political people. In other words, if you insult other posters or if you are not talking about the subject being discussed your post was edited/deleted. People need to focus on issues and not personal grievances with other posters. Don’t complain about how fast people come back and dislike your posts, when you in fact post every 2-3 minutes with negative comments. On top of that how fast or slow someone responds to something is not a political topic and strays off the course of what is being talked about. Don’t tell other posters they should post somewhere else or what they post is not important. Everyone’s post is important and everyone has the right to post whatever they want when it’s regarding politics. Don’t complain that posters are changing the subject matter, when you end up posting posts changing the subject matter of people you disagree with. I also don’t want any arguments from anyone or hear that I delete/edit certain posts more than the others, etc, etc, I looked at the subject line and read the post. I did not look at monikers. If it was an obvious insult, ridicule, swear word, condescending remark, or confrontation of one poster to another it was edited/deleted. And, most importantly, I do not want any more emails when I delete your post telling me what I can do to myself. I’m not here to hold back anyone’s opinion. Everyone has the right to express how they feel about issues, but not to cut down and insult posters. My job is just to make sure the conversations remain civilized, not edit the content of someone’s post (unless the above applies to it). Lets start the slate clean. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and they should be able to post here without repercussions from other posters badgering or belittling them, telling them what they post is not important, go post somewhere else or they or their links are not credible. Everyone here has a passion for politics and a strong opinion about issues that are important to them. We all are entitled to the same considerations we wish for ourselves. The anger and accusations, name calling, race baiting, condescending remarks have got to stop. Keep it about issues. Lets talk about what is really important to you and what matters to you. We all have a passion about something, lets share our ideas and thoughts. I’m sure there are a lot of things out there that others across the country have not heard about and it should be shared whether good or bad without being harassed. If there is a post on the board that offends you please send me an email and I will address it. Thanks, Moderator;
