You know whenever I get lost in the mall, I head towards that big map that says, "You are here". Then I am able to orient myself and figure out where the hell I am, otherwise I just wander around in circles for hours.
In alt.flame they had a FAQ so people knew what alt.flame was and what you should post there, they also had a who's who so you knew who the hell was posting there.
A who is who is needed here so people know who these people are, I frequently see someone named "Guest" and I have no idea who this "guest" is, when I invite a "guest" into the house, I make sure I know there name, otherwise any old bum off the street could claim to be my "guest" and sleep on the couch all day.

People like me can't crucify people like you and Oak for being political fucktards....

I think you're supposed to 'honour the spirit' of this sub. So it's not so much where you are in time and space, but whether or not you are capable of being 'politics free'. Love thy guest.

BF would be wise to turn his forum into a blog like Bra1in did. He aint ever getting new members with that giant clusterfuck going on.
He knows what he needs to do if he wants his forum back.
If BF completely stamped out politics being discussed, at least half of the active posters would leave and the board post count, which he always seems to be concerned about, would drastically plummet.
People do know there are other, more mature political boards out there, even redit has well moderated and civil political subredits.
BF's politics is not political discussion, it's the trolling and flaming equivalent of Meltdown. Even Stormfront 2.0 does not allow the racist crap that Lokmar can post at BF, probably because Stormfront 2.0 is under 24 hour NSA monitoring.
BF is a niche forum that lost most of it's core base when all the CBT blow ins blew into BF. He is stuck babysitting people of "the community" that are not capable of posting anywhere else. Where do Flynn, Lokmar and Benzo go if BF closes?

All three of them have handles here.

That's why the board is closed to lurkers and only registered members can view threads.
Reddit is garbage and has a massive lefty bias. BF is a good forum in my opinion. It obviously isn't to everybody's taste and is far from perfect, but in this day and age where forums are going the way of the dodo, it's in pretty good standing in terms of daily traffic.

I do try but people just want to be insulting and fight. It's really pretty futile.
I have to agree with Frued. Discourse is dead. Even on more "mature" boards.....people are just more polite in their dismissiveness and biases.
Moar and moar stories are open to comments on yahoo.

Many forums are cracking the whip on politics....like a canary in the coal mine for real life.
The future of discourse looks bleak and the smell of civil war lingers.
As I mentioned before...it's the relentless petty American politics, particularly regarding the Libs vs the Cons. I realise it's an American-based forum, but for fuck sake's, it's a load of drivel with a handful of blowhards rinsing and repeating daily. And not to mention a complete nutter that wants to write essays of tripe. * Tripe~ Cow stomach dish from Pommyland.
Shit behaviour!
Absolutely. They use politics as a vessel to vent their grievances about their own internal dysfunction. Easy to point and say "them, those people..." when it's really about themselves.

Funny that you singleout CBT as the problem forum, but none of the posters you call out by name are CBT posters. The problem got worse when the conservative echo chamber had liberals join.

All subs?
No, the super secret penis room that ppl pay for access to and meltdown are currently 'private'. Thread viewing for non registered/not logged in has changed many times. Seems the cat herders enjoy just changing stuff up.

I will take a look.
I skimmed through BF. Some of the subs, like Sports, Gaming, and Death I got no interest in, so I didn't look. Meltdown does, but it's private. Politics is a write off. Damn, it sucks. Introductions and General Discussions has some interesting stuff, but most of the cool stuff is old. Nah, I aint joining that forum.

It's always been about themselves...and fuck the consequences and forum too. Immature behaviour and schoolyard angst. Good luck to them and their squabble.

I don't mind a good political argument. But, not the way they do it on BF. You can read the bullshit they call content now. No thanks.

Stereotyping a person's political stance is off. Over there it's always a case of the extremes. You're either far left or far right. Finding a balance and having a pleasant discussion is virtually impossible.

It's totally partisan and no discussion of issues.

There is no intent to discuss policy or political affairs, it's just another way to troll.
