This isn't Something Awful or Gen[M]ay, unfortunately, I fear it's turning into one of those forums though.

I don't agree with many of your views (that's the best part of the internet/democracies, that we have the ability to disagree) but I sure do respect you now.

People such as ObFrog contributed nothing to that forum (even though I didn't post a lot down there, I read zealously) and if anything, decimated the integrity of it. Yea, we had our shouting matches, but atleast we all had a certain amount of respect for each other until immature people came down and posted arrogant, pointless, agrivating and flat out unneeded posts and pictures screwed everything up. Yea, we had our problems down there, but atleast we had mature conversations where intelligent conversations and information were passed around. A place where opinions were freely expressed and explained. But then certain members of the forums posted immature posts that derailed and murdered the integrity of the forum and the entire point of them. So seriously people, think before you post and have some dignity for other people. Believe it or not, the Universe doesn't revolve around you.

I'm sad to see the forum locked and Vic leave. But I must say that I have a ton of respect for Doppler.

Totally agree.

Anyways, all in all this whole thing is getting blown out of proportion. Vic was viewed as the bad guy because of his highly conservative views and the others were being assholes like they are usually. I don't know where you guys were raised but solving fights by grunting and bashing your heads together because a guy is defending HIS point of view isnt the way to go. Alot of you acted like children over this and ganged up to do like so, you basicly did what childs in school would do to a deformed kid, you gathered all your "friends" to laugh and point.

We would not be in the predicament had we all acted in a more mature way, if PB comes back up I hope Hamma or whoever will manage the damn place make sure everyone is ready to act like civilized beings. This means no one lining pieces of crap like OB consistantly does and defending you point of view like an adult. A.K.A not pulling any shit like "Youz a big dumb dumb!".

Unless everyone of you guys and gals are ready to act like mature adults then I vote that you don't open it back up.

The internet! The internet teaches me french so books don't have to!

I've read posts too, and I see why someone would want to leave. Too many offtopic remarks, half the stuff is just jokes.

When people contributed to PSU, they found out that they could post in PD too. And since their normal "habitat" revolves around being funny, people drove it to PD.

....So I see it....

Doppler's topic was a joke (its the lounge, remember?), he comes to state a point, ok. Good for him, I haven't spent much time in PD untill now to see why it closed and i've come across some good stuff (please to some of my history homework). Dopplers ok.

I'm sad to see MrVic go, he's an oldie I remember seeing back in ps beta when i was a wee little lad. He will be greatly missed. Me tilts my hat for Vic.

Seriously, it's not him. Someone do an IP check, it's not me =p

STFU NEWBIE!

Considering i was posting in the lounge well over a year before you even found the site, it seems approrpiate, when i tell you not so kindly to "get bent.you dirty wanker." Your miniscule contributions to the forum were some jabs at another peoples culture, and you wonder why they bristle in response. I'm so glad you can wrap yourself in your superiority about civilized debate that you havnt been around long enough to experience.

Seriously kid crawl back into your hole, you have no idea who you're dealing with. PSU is a playground in comparison to OF, it's a frickin Elysium. I've dealt with people who make you look like a cuddly wuddly care-bear so if you seriously believe you'll be the one to strike me down with great vengeance and fuuuuuuuuuuuuuurious anger, you'd be sadly mistaken.

Angered empassioned (and overall drama-inciting) responses are not something that interests me in the slightest and by the looks of the complete lack of response to your call for great justice.. no-one else is interested either. In short, your post sucked. I'd have thought that a 'long-serving' member of the community would have been able to come up with something a little more grown-up. Apparently not. It would seem that Pol Disc came to an end not a moment too soon. It has poisoned your mind, as do so many Political Discussion forums online, stinking cesspits of prejudice and blinkered close-minded attitudes.

TB.

Hamma · 2004-12-21, 09:40 AM

The political debate forums were created due to the overflow of pol debate that erupted in the lounge. When the forum started Vicchio volunteered to moderate it, at the time it was a godsend as myself or any of my staff wanted nothing to do with such a forum. And so the time began, during the entire time the forum has been running Vicchio has been the moderator. I locked the forum because as I see it, there is nobody else capable of being a moderator of that forum.

Vicchio did an excellent job in his time as a moderator, I do not believe we could have had a better moderator. Everyone had their differences but in the end it ended up being a better place. For one reason or another over the past months things slowly degrated, as with anything I guess people wanted a change? If anything vic should have been given more power to ban some of those who were complete assholes. It's no matter to me, because I run a gaming site. The only reason that forum existed was because I had somoene who I trusted running it the entire time. As such, the only way pol debate will return is if Vicchio returns. This of course is his decision, so if you want him to return persuade him otherwise.

Enough with the bad mouthing and debate in this thread, the fact is the forum is now locked. It's up to those who liked that forum to help bring it back not me. I have no time to be a moderator over there, it requires someone to ALWAYS be watching it and I do not want to be that person, because the topics discussed there usually are of zero interest to me.

Actually good ole' webster says otherwise. In light of 2 and 3 it is perfectly contextual in your case. (I am neither 65 nor catholic but thanks for asking.) When i said potentcy i meant you had concerns about your ability to affect the outside world, if you took it to be masculinity maybe your freeling overly defensive about something. Fun fact, i never knew punk used to be a refrence to the catcher in a gay relationship, learn something ew everyday.
