So I guess we've basically completely given up on the "no politics" thing. If the mods aren't going to moderate (hello? anybody there?), then at least give us the Political Ramblings forum back...?

Can we start banning people that constantly create a problem? I'm all for expressing opinions, but the attacking and bullying that's been going on recently is getting old

What happened to this rule? Why is it no longer being enforced? The board has become a bitchfest with people calling each other names and arguing over political garbage. Why not just have a politics sections so the rest of the board doesn’t have to listen to the 3 same people arguing and acting like children?

The board has become so negative it’s really sad.

The board has become so negative it’s really sad. Wait...this board has been political since 2015. You people are just noticing now? When Dr. Strangelove was banning people right and left if they disagreed with his political stance where were you then Leslie? Now its bothering you? I am all for no politics but here is the bald truth. Liberals cannot stop talking about Donald Trump or politics. They cannot even avoid it on the main board.

Let’s see what happens if everyone stops talking politics and being so negative towards each other. Maybe this board would be a nicer place

I think we can all be better people and its a worthwhile goal.

I do wonder about all the people that feel the urge to communicate with people on a message board almost 24/7.I had that problem once and thought of other ways to burn off bad energy.

There was a separate politics board. It became basically nothing but a few ultra-conservative trolls sharing right-wing memes with each other. Nobody else really wanted to engage with shockjock and gogopherbill.
Then they got rid of that forum, and political posts started creeping into this forum. The mods got tired of enforcing it. So now we have what we have.
This forum is basically the sacrificial protection for the other volleytalk forums.

Plus holiday and all his alter-egos. I think you’re the one that not only revealed my hometown and my government farm payments,, but also my business on this forum which is quite a violation of anyone’s privacy.. I think any forum taking advice from you would not be wise.

So now we have what we have. This forum is basically the sacrificial protection for the other volleytalk forums. I’m not familiar with those names, before my time I guess. I do remember Barcelona Bob and some Texas fan so obnoxious that other Texas fans offered to fight him at Gregory. And then Holiday’s near-constant spamming was of course the last nail in the coffin for the politics forum. I’d be perfectly happy with a strict no-politics stance, but I get the additional workload needed by mods to consistently enforce it might be a bit much to ask, and perhaps this current iteration keeps politics encroaching the other forums.
