All Threads Should Be Locked By Default

[Eviscerate]

Even if the discussion did get derailed I didn't do it. And I got dinged for the thread for starting the thread.

I'm sure the comment about communism had nothing to do with it being locked.

If you think it sucks here so much, why are you still here? 

[-gg-]

And I would challenge you to even tell me how it went off the rails in the first place. You can't talk about news?

You guys are incredible. I hope you enjoy what this place has become.

[-gg-]

Someone made a personal attack against me and that's when it went off the rails. Called me a communist.

I only replied that a good communist would follow the news.

Yeah I guess I can see now your point. Since I started the thread and somebody called me a communist I should have been banned.

Like this op said. This forum is now filled with the only retards that are left after the moderation took everybody that was worth a darn away.

[-gg-]

And Arlo considers himself a valuable part of the community. Which is a laugh. I'll bet most of you guys that are left haven't played aces high in a decade.

I think arlo's value to this forum is that he goes around into every thread and makes a snide one sentence comment and then puts a :-) after it. All he is is a busy body and he is worthless. And those are the people you're going to have left here when the people that post actual content are gone.

I came here because I started to play aces high again. I am a paying customer. Most of you are not and you just sit here and freeload and report people for the stupidest things..

I believe Hitech is the moderator of these boards now.

You may have started a benign thread but when it went off the rails you jumped in......as usual with both feet so you were to blame as much if not more than the others. Also, the "others" may have gotten the same warnings as you.

You may think you doing the "BBS" a favor by bringing action to the boards with all the crap you and a number of others spew but all your doing is dragging it through the sewer.

In your opinion.

Huh. Try Valium. 

What an 'ass'et to this community you are.

I'm sure the comment about communism had nothing to do with it being locked.

And I'm pretty sure it does. In an another topic I mentioned one left side ideology and told I do not support their ideas. Got warning immediately and now Big Brother has me in close monitor.

If you have some time, go back and look at some threads from 20+ years ago, so many were epic

I think it's hilarious that some of the people here love what this place has become because of the moderation.

I guess they'd rather have two posts a day then what the place used to be.

Can't discuss anything over here really. I had a thread about tuning out the news and just listening to classical music locked and I got a warning for it. Totally ridiculous.

I saw one of your threads where you're asking what happened to The forum over here. I was surprised at how many people came forward to say that it's great what happened to the place.

LOL.

I'm guessing those same people prefer whole grain pizza crust and ads on their paid streaming services.

Why don't you review it?

The thread was about listening to classical music and I got warned and "watched" for violation some rule. The moderation here is a joke.

Semp, you can talk about whatever you want on ICOM. People don't have to agree with you and they will tell you you're an idiot when you're an idiot. I do not allow personal attacks but you can at least discuss ant subject. Most people there do not like liberals at all. Try talking about something else. I don't like liberals either but that place is not some Trump forum. No one even mentions Trump that I've seen. Be honest

Liberals need a protected space to help keep them safe from the facts.

Why don't you point out where I jumped in with both feet and said anything wrong. I will wait patiently here..

Somebody told me in that thread that I would make a good communist and that any communist country would want me as a subject. I merely replied with a light-hearted comment that a good communist would follow the news fed to him.

So in your world I guess that's a crazy comment to make and it's way out there and going off the rails

Exactly! He baited you and you jumped right in! "Communist" and even "News" had nothing to do with the thread (I believe it was about the relaxation classical music could bring to a person). You brought politics into the thread and before it could be blown out AGAIN Hitech shut it down.

Im sorry you seem to have an issue with understanding things like this.

So you think that the guy, CAV, telling me that I would make a good communist subject did not derail the thread. That CAV's comment was NOT political and somehow my response was the problem and that THAT was political? You're a joke.

I did not bring politics into the thread. The person who called me a communist basically. That's the one who made a personal attack against me.

I would have been fine if the thread got locked for that, even though I still think it's ridiculous.

What is not fine is that I got penalized for starting the thread in the first place.

So basically some joker can come into any thread and personally attack the original poster , calling them a communist, then the original poster is the one who gets warned for starting the thread.

In your world that makes sense. Not in my world.

You're a love muffin if you think that I'm the one that should be blamed for any of that.
