Let’s Pull the Plug on AI

Post by Kishkumen »

I am getting increasingly tired of AI taking up so much of the bandwidth on this board. I am happy to interact with real people who disagree with me and others—Ceeboo, MG 2.0, etc., but we are seeing a lot of long-winded, repetitive posts that bear the hallmarks of AI composition. I don’t want to see this place cluttered with this garbage, anymore than I want to see ads. No, I think it is worse than ads.

Let’s discuss how we rid ourselves of the phony post problem. Am I alone in this?

What's wrong? You don't like it when a conservative like me treats you and your Marxist progressive buddies the same way Marxist General DrCamnPP and Bishop Schmo treat conservatives?

I gave you a chance yesterday to try something different. Possibly something that could bring humor to the board and you didn't take me up on it. Possibly bring people together to talk about making a change to the atmosphere on the board.

You're not a conservative. LOL! Wow, I really wish you were a bona fide conservative. No, you are in no way, shape, or form a conservative. I guess your message to me about civility was bogus.

I complemented you and asked you if you want to attempt to make a change, I did that, not you.

I reached out to you, not you to me.

Indeed! And what came of it? This? I have to wonder why you contacted me in the first place.

By the way, although it has recently been spelled incorrectly a couple of times here--and is quite frequently misspelled elsewhere--the word is "complimented." Complement and compliment are different words with different meanings.

I reached out, and you decided to pass on an opportunity to join in on an exercise that could have sparked a lively chat among all the board members about cooling things down around here. I was convinced I had found the perfect guy who would jump at the chance to join in on a board exercise that would get the chatter flowing, but it turns out I was mistaken!

It seems like you're more concerned about keeping your cool points with your progressive pals than actually figuring out how to chill things out on the board! I took a swing at it, gave it my best shot, trying to lend a hand! Well, all I can say is may the odds be ever in your favor out there! Good luck! You're going to need it on this board!

How curious of you to make this claim, when I expressed a willingness to work on treating Hound of Heaven a little better. I noticed you did not respond to my message, which I found very odd. Now you are denying that I responded? Or what? Misreading my response? I am genuinely trying to understand what happened here. Please help me out. What it looks like to me, pardon me for saying, is that you are really motivated to drive wedges, and when this reward is not forthcoming, you revert to other tactics.

I didn't ask you to be nicer to me, I asked you to try something new and think outside the box for a few days, see what happens on the board.

You can trust your instincts on this one. It’s not like we haven’t been down this road before.
