Welp it finnally happened and now i just want my money back


Well, for better or worse, political debate got locked. Or Hamma'd closed, or Triggar'd shut. (low blow penalty points, bad Doppler no cookie). It was fun while it lasted, and an intresting offshoot of a forum for a game i no longer play (Wrote many many dissertations on why i dont play PS anymore). I guess it kind of hurts so soon after the funding drive where I chipped money into the kitty. It especialy hurts as Vics leaving was the efforts of a small cadre of individuals, who were about as transparent in their efforts as a cinder block, trying to remove him.

More often then not on idealogical grounds i disagreed with Vic and the rest of the political right. But certain other people, ah hell i wont be subtle, mostly Trig and to extent martyr basicly tried to take over the forum, and silence anyone who didnt agree with them. When that didnt work, and Triggar was asked to leave the forum alone mod wise a nice (not so)quiet little bunch of Triggerite zerglings started coming over to Pol debate, include Ob frog, and thats when things really started to cook off.

Bottom line I respect most people on this forum because thats how I operate. But Trig and others lost points in my eyes, it was crap to do, and it got the one place on this board I still post regular closed down. Thanks bunches.

Not once did I post there, but some of the discussions there really fascinated me. It's a shame that some people couldn't keep their humour to the Lounge.

Fuck. The stupid people just plain out made those forums bad. And Triggar, I'm sorry, but alot of that was you. And you, ObFrog. And you, Hezzy. If you can't bring yourself to reply thoughtfully, get away from the posts there.

are you kidding? you want your donation back?

holy hell, it's not like the servers voted for kerry. there's no need to bring the poldeb drama to the lounge just because poldeb is locked. send hamma a PM, but this post is flamebait if i've ever seen it.

you're invited to post in the lounge, but don't be a jerk

The money back comment was mostly in jest, nice deflection though, way to completely ignore the rest of the post in favor of the subject heading. But hey dont hold to even a shred of objectivity.

I'd imagine that it'll be opened again, since it wasn't deleted entirely.

Not too surprised. Topic after topic was being derailed. Mr. Viccho would post, then you get a couple of posts more or less calling him an idiot. You get an intelligent post, then "your an idiot" post. Another intelligent, then more insults and then even more insults. It became forum just to gang up on Mr. V. If he deleted posts, locked threads, etc. then Mr. V. would have been accused of silencing people with opposing views. It was a Lose-Lose situation for him and lose situation for anyone who wanted to have a meaningful exhcange of ideas. You would have to go through a lot of trash in order to find the real dialogue, and who wants to do that?

My only problem with Mr.V were his opinions on Religion, Government, and the effects of one on the other...and they're 'right' to call me names.
