Is there some reason why perfectly reasonable threads are being re-categorized???

[Si modo]

USMB is hardly the only game in town, dear.

Then, please, save us your drama and go.

Thanks.

And miss all the fun of women like you who get their panties all in a wad over my commentary? Not a chance. I'll stay until I get overrun by right wing fringers which happened on another board familiar to everyone and now it's a place for every pervert in the country to post.

....

And you'll be sooooooooo dramatic about it, too.

c'mon everybody, sing along

That's hardly the point. As administrator, if Gunny can't stand the opinions of liberals and thinks it's approporiate to arbitrarily censor them, then the integrity of the board is compromised and he needs to change the mission of the forum. Normally, I don't see that happening. He simply posts a counter opinion, which is fine.

What censor? He moved your thread to the flame zone (as he did one of mine, 'The New Civil War') and you posted a bitchy-assed thread whining about it. That thread lasted all of about three minutes before he deleted it. lol Gonna whine about that too?? His board, his rules.

Oh and I'm sooooooooooo sure you would feel the same way if the "administrator" were a liberal.

I had damned good reason to be royally pissed off about moving that thread. Not to beat up any further on the decision to move it to the "Lame Zone," it seems that topic has been one of the hottest generating wide spread discussion in recent days, ALL as a result of Frank Rich's column. So was I off the wall by posting it? Why? It was (and is) a political, current event. That some people's OPINIONS think it's lame is too fucking bad. It is what it is, and an equal number of others don't consider it "lame" at all.

Funny, I didn't bitch about my political and current event being moved to the Flame Zone. (actually my money was on it getting moved to Conspiracy Theories) and wouldn't have bitched if the admin was a liberal. It's just not that big of a deal. Too fucking bad that you still can't stop whining 'bout yer thread being moved. Get over it already.

You need to lighten up Maggie. Go have a drink or watch some Python.

 

[Gunny]

ahhh when you are in a hole..its best to stop digging.....



but that is just me....

What hole? What do you think he's going to do, kick me from the board because I dared to disagree with a decision he made?

One could only hope. But, alas, even Marines have more class than that.

For questioning a staff members decision in a public forum? Yes, I would.

Hey modo, then why do you even bother to post here?

If you get rid of the opposing viewpoint, as you seem to want to do, you end up with a big mutual masturbation session.

I think you'll find that a circle jerk is not as fun as the real thing.

The ironic thing about this situation was that threads moved were not "opposing viewpoints", but just a simple posting of a current event without any opinions given in the OP.

 

[Gunny]

Is there some reason why perfectly reasonable threads are being re-categorized under seldom-used topic headings for no apparent reason?

Did someone let some lame partisan hack moderator take over the categorization?

You calling me a hack, fuckwit? I move retarded threads from retards because I'm sick of hearing you morons parrot each other.

Next question, sheep?

Except some of them that get moved aren't "retarded."

Incorrect. Redundant as well.

 

[Vast LWC]

You are right. Honestly, I don't mind you too much at all. You actually think.

I DO mind drama. It seems beneath you.

It's Maggie's trademark, though.

Well, the feeling is mutual modo, I also don't mind you too much at all.

And usually I would not be spouting drama, but partisan censorship on the board is definitely a catalyst for me.

 

[strollingbones]

o my my....better boards...get your ass to them ....what a fucking joke...more whining from hannity maggots...*i just love using that term* it fits so well....

my threads get moved...it aint like someone slapped my child....get over it and move on...i am sure some other board will be happy to have ya maggie mae...

 

[Gunny]

I'll tell you what Gunny, why don't you move ONE of the threads on the terrorist right-wing militia back into current events.

It doesn't have to be mine. Pick the one that's most non-confrontational.

And then in return I'll apologize for calling you a partisan hack.

K?

How about you don't tell me what to do? You calling me a partisan hack when you're a fucking pussy-ass partisan sheep doesn't mean anything to me. I think you fuckwits are dumber'n red bricks.

If you had a brain and had been around here long enough, you'd know I don't like instigating extremist twists from EITHER side. Of course, you weren't here when I started running this board and ran the rightwingnuts off.

You fucking socialists that thinking redistributing wealth is cool are pieces of garbage. Think it's okay to take what's not yours and you haven't earned to support your socialist bullshit. You hacks just made a lot of people poor with your stupid political belief that those that earn should support the lazy fucks and losers that don't.

Got anything more to say, flapgums, or what?

I think that comment warrants this thread being moved to an appropriate place for discussion. Unless, of course YOUR WORD is the FINAL WORD on everything. This is, after all, a forum for expressing opinions, or do you occasionally forget that.

I also get the difference between well-informed opinions and lying rhetoric. I get the difference between posting opinions and being a parrot. I also get that we don't over 100 threads on "tea-baggers andSarah Palin", respectively.

Obviously YOU don't.

 

[L.K.Eder]

lol, i just visited the lame zone. haha.

someone is melting.

Incorrect. Redundant as well.

Well, then why wouldn't you just combine the threads, as is the usual for you folks? And why would you remove ALL of the references to the subject at hand?

probably a liberal plant.

 

[strollingbones]

ooooooooooooooo partisan movement......i dont really think so...and i assure you ...i am the first to bitch about the board leaning to the right....and i have never thought one of my threads was moved due to partisanship...now if you want to outright rage at the board over being "right" leaning....go for it...i am gonna give you one big ass hint here....do it in pm.

i would also remind you...you are a guest of the board...short and simple...

 

[Gunny]

I enjoy this board specifically because it is the least partisan moderated board around.

Just because I have a complaint about this instance doesn't mean I have complaints about all instances.

However, if you're going to make a decision to start censoring or moving people's post that you don't like, and then berate them when they complain, just tell me now, and I'll find another posting board.

And I'll go with you. One of mine got dumped in the Lame Zone but finally re-moved to the Flame Zone. It didn't belong there, either, but at least further comments weren't shut out.

First, go where you like. Second, any thread or post on this board is the intellectual property of USMB, not you. You don't have "one of mine."

Third, Instead of whining, why not try asking via PM WHY it was moved? It doesn't always have to with you, nor the thread, but the morons in it.

And I WILL move a thread to the Lame Zone simply if the thread title itself is lame.

There's a subforum on this board for insulting and being nasty and that BS is getting out of hand in the political threads. Consider it getting slapped back to a dull roar.

 

[Gunny]

They're usually quite good, even Gunny.

I just think he woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning or something.

I woke up on the wrong side of being sick to death of hearing about Palin, and Tea_"baggers" and all the other vilifying terms you left-goobs like to propagandize with.

Well we get sick of hearing about them also. So please tell Sarah to just shut up unless she can make a speech without shrieking insults. Then the 24-hour news cycle would stop and you'd wake up with a happy face.

How about you quit ranting about HER? Pretty simple concept.

I don't care that MY thread was moved.

In fact, I could care less.

I'm pissed because all threads on the subject of the Michigan terrorists were moved, while other threads on similar subjects were not.

That specifically in addition to several other thread choices, is trying to direct the discourse away from any thread that points out right-wing violence.

Thus it is partisan and hack-ish.

 

[Gunny]

Is there some reason why perfectly reasonable threads are being re-categorized under seldom-used topic headings for no apparent reason?

Did someone let some lame partisan hack moderator take over the categorization?

Perfectly reasonable is a judgment call. I doubt seriously that anything you ever say will be perfectly reasonable. The reason was likely not apparent to you...because you are incapable of reasoning. You are a complete fucking idiot. There are liberal moderators here that have infinitely more intelligence than do you.

Perhaps your topic is lame. Did you ever think of that? Of course not. You fucking dimwitted liberals think your shit doesn't stink.

There you go...parroting the asshole that started this thread. Disagreeing with the fucking Marxist Obama and demonstrating against his fucking Marxist movement requires a bit of vocalization and vigor. You fucking dimwitted liberals take that as being uncivil..or racist..or unpatriotic. We are just trying to save the nation from the hands of collectivism. What you need to do is go fuck yourself. Maybe you and Vast LWC could get together and give each other head.



That's about all you and the other millions of fuckwitted liberals do...repeat nonsensical talking points.

Islamic terrorist are real. Right wing terrorists are an invention of yours...intended to equate enemies of this nation with enemies of socialism and Obama's fucking Marxism movement. Kiss my ass in the aught, you cocksucking liberal piece of shit. Fuck Marx! Fuck Marxism! Fuck Obama! Fuck Obamacare! Fuck Liberalism!

(Did I leave out anybody that needs fucking?)

Your post was moved to where it belongs. There's no censorship involved here.

...or something...that something being that your thread was misplaced and totally lame.

It was a lame thread to start with, fuckwit.

And as I promised, since you have now left a thread up, I apologize for my comments.

You can't unring a bell. You have exposed yourself once again as completely inadequate. Find yourself a circle of liberals friends and have a circle jerk.

Was repeating everything supposed to have a larger impact? Sorry, I skipped it.

Repeating everything for the slow that doesn't get it the first time sometimes works. Just not on wingnuts.

 

[Gunny]

Oh, I see, so posting a major news story, included in an OP that makes no judgement calls at all, is posting some sort of partisan bullshit, eh gunny?

So much for moderator impartiality.

Well I hope you enjoy your fucking echo chamber then, and I take back my apology, you are a partisan hack.

Perhaps you might want to re-think your strategy before you destroy the debate on your little thread here, and it goes the way of Townhall.com, with a bunch of right-winger talking to themselves.

Seems like a pretty lame business strategy too, since some of the left wingers in question are supporting members... But hey, it's your board, you can do whatever you want with it I guess.

Next time you talk about "free speech" however, I'll feel free to laugh in your face, K?

I was going to continue this conversation in a private message, by the way, but hell, I'm not one to take this kind of shit lying down.

Hell, you'll probably move this thread to "the lame zone" anyway, since you're the big powerful moderator. I hope you feel like more of a man now Gunny.

*yawn*

No need to be "more" of a man than I am; which, was already more of one than you.

i suggest you let it drop and just savor the sweet irony and hypocrisy.

anyone who looks at the threads in the lame zone can make up its own mind about the motive for moving them, and letting certain other threads stay in "current events".

 

[Gunny]

The concept that Gunny is an admin on a privately run message board seems to escape some folks . . . .

That's hardly the point. As administrator, if Gunny can't stand the opinions of liberals and thinks it's approporiate to arbitrarily censor them, then the integrity of the board is compromised and he needs to change the mission of the forum. Normally, I don't see that happening. He simply posts a counter opinion, which is fine.

That IS the point. You wouldn't know a liberal if one fell on you and the point obviously zoomed right over your pointy little head.

When you want to tell someone how to run a messageboard, go get one.

Want to try again? You haven't fared well so far.
