This site exists because of ME

I was the first person to accuse SR of reading u2u messages, which led to the investigation conducted by Grind and yours truly, and ultimately to the creation of this site. Feel free to thank me. ;)

Note: I am joking.
 
Well, I was the first to boycott the other board. You'll also notice that I was the first to join the other board.

My boycott created the demand. Sorry bdw, I get all the credit.

LOL... I guess so. :p
 
hahahahahahaha!

to the both of you! lol

nanni, nanni, boo hoo...(sung to Ring around the rosies)

;)

care

I really don't know why I am here.....?

hahahahaha!

Thinking back on it....maybe it really was because SR kept insulting me?

Maybe it was because this whole mess caught me off guard, and surprised me?

Maybe it was because I did not think that any of these actions that were done, could harm a soul and were a real good civics lesson for all of us, and on how things really work in politics...very similar to what happened on fullpolitics....and no one should have been banned for any of the actions that took place?

Maybe it was because I really did NOT think it was right for SR to to post the u2u's of others from the site, regardless of what he thought was coup in the making....though, he did apologize for this and said he was wrong?

I really have no idea, the whole thing was just infantile to me....Juvenile at best!

I left the other site for one reason only, the u2us. The admin posting private messages.... I couldn't believe it. What a foolish thing for SR to do on an otherwise terrific board.
 
Yes Mbl, in the end, that was the real reason I came over here too....that is the bottom line.

Though, call me a pansy, but I do think that SR has "learned a little" from doing that.....I still never read the actual emails that he posted, I refused to do such....

And I was pretty much able to keep up with what was going on without them...

Ultimately, though, it was Grind and yours truly who laid the foundations for a Revolution. ;)

SR really needs to deflate his head.
 
I do need to add, that I love Sr's site...it was a great message board, a heck of alot better than politics.com, that's for certain! And much better features....! I miss it already, and probably will end up back there someday after I abstain for a bit...

I like this site too and we seem to be doing fairly well with gathering people and posts, don't you think...? for it just being around for a couple of days?

One feature about this site that makes it great is the personal ignore idiots feature that Damo gave us and look I have only had to ignore one idiot so far and he (or she) has already been banned for being an impersonator. Yes that was a hint to SR.

Thanks Damo!
 
Shucks guys... Give me ideas. Making this a unique and fun site dealing with politics is the goal. Nothing can make it more unique than people's input on what they actually want...
 
You are da bomb Lady T .... and may I say ... Care .. you are here because you are one of the "Cool" people ..... as rob dawg or dastud would say..... :cool:

I think the idea is to have a "Trophy Case" for the best Threads and/or Posts...

I've been thinking about this one. I do have a choice to put in the "Reputation" of a poster where each poster can add or take away from the rep of a poster based on their posts... And I believe I could add a feature to give Awards to posts that one could search out... But I haven't figured a way to put them in a special area yet...

The Reputation feature tends to make it so a D or R heavy site gives high rep to their own but people on the lower end have negative rep points and no rep power to give or take from another. Basically I don't want that to happen because it tends to make those on the lower end leave the board for more friendly territory...
 
You are on the right track ... iow ... Hall Of Fame for great posts. I used to visit a sports forum .. and everyone had the option of clicking on a "rack this post" feature. What that would do is nominate the post to be placed in a special forum room. But... we may be talking about a committee to select whether or not the post is deserving of such recognition. Im not sure you want to go in that direction ... lol

Or just have a member wide vote ..... where you would place a time limit on how long we will have to vote. Lets say for instance... you have 100 members ... a post gets nominated .. and we have 48 hours to place a vote. If the post gets a certain percentage of votes from the overall membership .. say 75% ... it goes into the Hall of Fame.

Good point. I guess I should have read the whole thing. All I saw was the end of jpp.com before it even got off the ground.

I think the personal ignore feature is a great one, and if SR is reading this, I think his members would greatly appreciate it....

(I don't need the government to "take care of me", with a security council, give me the tool and I can take care of myself...I think that is a very conservative ideal and would have thought SR would understand that... :( )
