Before you came back as MG2.0 I had someone explain to me that you were one of the most angry posters ever to join the board. I don’t see that. I like your post. This is a fascinating post. I can't think of anyone on this board who would have described mentalgymnast as "one of the most angry poster...

I see that MG is not infrequently frustrated and angry. I am sure it comes with the territory, in that he has chosen to endure in an environment where disregard for his cherished beliefs is the norm. It has to be tough, and I doubt I would deal with it the way he does, but I am glad he is no Atlant...

Lem is still here, I would contend, albeit under another moniker.

That’s what I thought. Although I’m flummoxed as to why she would choose to use a male moniker. That’s kinda weird.

If, that is, my suspicions are correct. But I could be wrong.

Regards,
MG

It’s because of me

Our world is going to crap and you are whining about a troll that is yanking your chain on a obscure Internet forum? People are dying on the streets fro drug abuse, Ukrainians are dying and forced from their country, gas is 6 bucks a gallon, a pack of M&M’s is 2.09, Nickle just rose 250% and I have...

😀😀😀😀 so cockroaches 🪳 is the word that deserves banning someone not racist, White supremacist, or nazi? You really crack me up, seriously. Indeed. Go think about that a little while. Given the way that the name cockroach dehumanizes someone else similar to how Nazis dehumanized Jews by calling them...

We’ve never had a rule against trolling per se. I understand and appreciate the distinctions you pointed out, but I don’t think they get to the essence of trolling, which is posting to provoke a strong emotional response in others. I appreciate your feedback, as it helps me think about how best to ...

I certainly didn’t read it as an invitation to debate. I read it as “Look how dumb Republicans are.” Which is indistinguishable from “Look how stupid progressives are.” It looks intended to provoke an emotional response rather than start an actual conversation. Put another way, were I a conservativ...

Despite all the smilies and pseudo-bonhomie, MG from time to time makes it rather obvious that he is not entirely a nice person. I think his contributions to this thread need to be read in that light. I think people exaggerate the ill will of MG. At the very least, I am glad he does not come in her...

Please give me the thread starter rule. Pretty please. I promise if you give me complete control over my threads I’ll have 10 new members here within a year sharing their positive opinions on how we move forward in life without having to muck through the negative influences of progressivism. I’ll c...

Marcus, that’s the way I am currently leaning. And Mike’s description of how he would use thread starter rights is a good illustration of why I am skeptical of enacting a thread starter rights rule. In Mike’s example of Ajax, if Ajax or anyone else reports the post, we delete the personal attack or...
