What percentage of Packerrats is devoted to refuting Partial

[mraynrand]

It seems that most threads on Packerrats basically degenerate either into a shouting match over Favre, or into a refutation of some claim by Partial. With the loss of the threads agonizing over Tank, and the temporary banning of the main 'Favre arguers' is Packerrats essentially a glorified "Refute Partial" website?

[Little Whiskey]

Source?

[Kiwon]

I support Partial. :tup:

[Zool]

I support P when he's accurate. If a guy gets combative he gets what he gives. Cant complain too much about that.

Partial says a lot of off the wall shit.

[Partial]

Partial is the square peg attempting to go into a round hole. Outside of the box thinker right here <----

[Harlan Huckleby]

Partial, I give you credit for sticking to your principles. But your thinking is very much inside the box, you recite ideological forumulas.

[Harlan Huckleby]

oh my god, I realize I have just pushed-up the percentage of packerrats time spent arguing with Partial.

[texaspackerbacker]

I haven't really noticed that he has been all that controversial--not in politics and not about the Packers. And if it's some other silly crap you're talking about, well, like I said, I haven't noticed--because it probably wasn't worth discussing.

[HowardRoark]

I just want to find out how much weight he ends up losing.

[sheepshead]

I think he should give a little more thought to his posts, other than that, not too outrageous.

[red]

i think a good 70 % of the threads in the RR are devoted to political arguing

everyday you see 4 or 5 threads started up, their only reason is to piss of people from the other side

this is not a political forum, this is suppose to be the fun forum. instead you have people trying to piss off others all the time.

take it to a political forum, and give us back our fun forum

honestly, all that bullshit should be thrown into one giant FYI type thread

OR A SEPARATE FORUM!!!!!!!!!!!!

Red, this IS a political forum. If you're too ignorant to keep up, then just ignore the "70%" (actually, I think if you check it out, it's about 30-70 the other way, but who's counting).

Some people actually care about things that have the potential to be life and death issues--and others which, if not life and death, are at least life changing on a large scale.

If you prefer silly shit--that has little or no significant effect on anybody, then knock yourself out. You won't see me or any of the other political posters trying to piss all over your fun. And fun is what it's all about, after all. I don't JUST post about politics because it is so vitally important to so many people's lives; I do it because it is FUN.

Oh OK, I went ahead and counted. On page one of Romper Room, 30 total posts, only 6 would be considered political--and some of those are stretches. So it ain't 70%; It ain't even 30%; It's actually 20%.

[sheepshead]

He's gotcha on that one Red, for many of us politics IS fun. Your fun doesnt look like my fun (since I dont know who was on your avatar and some guy said I need to get a life until I do).
So make your own fun I guess and some will chime in.

[red]

would you politicos object to a subforum?

and for you two

its not just me that has a problem with the politics, there's others, including some that no longer post here because of it

[Harlan Huckleby]

Can you not tell that a thread will be political from its title? I would have no objection to a separate forum if you have a clear idea of what you want. (Actually, I should say I will agree to oppose your idea, that way your idea has a chance, because MAdtown always does the opposite of what I want.)

If we had a separate forum for politics, which of these threads would belong there:

Postone Digital TV ?
A Confession: I am openly straight
100-0
talk show hosts
Artic Air
Ranking the Presidents
Old People Working
Mortgage Housing Crisis?

[red]

well, any thread that someone intends to be about politics

and any thread that turns into political back and forth gets moved there

[Little Whiskey]

is this considered a political thread?

if so I believe you turned it into one.

[mraynrand]

And I tried to make a fun thread because I saw multiple threads on the Packer side that were specifically refuting Partial. Red, you strike me as an emotional thinker. That's OK, I guess, but you're not really coming across all that clearly.

[Harlan Huckleby]

and any thread that turns into political back and forth gets moved there

that could work ok. an awful lot of threads do turn sort-of political. Like when skinbasket says mean things about poor people just because they want to enjoy a little television after a hard day remodeling rich folks' bathrooms.

I believe in experimenting. why not try red's idea just for the hell of it? maybe it would make the place more fun for some people. its easy enough to scrap it if it proves to be annoying.

but Madtown is not big on experiments. If I suggest using a lighter shade of beige for the background, he gets all worried that Bretsky will be upset by the change. People around here like the old barber shop to stay the same.

OK, I just changed my mind: MADTOWN, RED'S IDEA IS A DUMB ASS IDEA, DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT TRYING IT!

[texaspackerbacker]

I think that red and his haters of all things political better be careful what they wish for. Why?

Well, it's like this: even though, as I said, maybe 80% of the threads in Romper Room are NOT political, the great majority of those who post in those non-political threads are our illustrious political posters.

What will happen if they decide to split it off and have a political thread along with the old Romper Room? The political posters will spend most of their time in the political room, and the old Romper Room will shrivel up and die--maybe not right away, more like a slow painful demise--nothing but a few dull red-types talking about a few dull subjects.

Imagine if say six months from now, red starts a thread in Romper Room whining about how all the action is in the Political Room, etc. Nobody will even be there to hear his plaintiff wail and discuss it.

[bobblehead]

I personally am all for it, but in honesty I don't think I would enter the RR without politics....VERY little has ever interested me otherwise.

[MadtownPacker]

This thread has brought up an interesting point.

For those interested all you need to do is make a fair poll and have the vast majority win to make it so.

So just like America does, vote on it!

[Harlan Huckleby]

my poll on making a Favre room won a solid majority and you ignored it.

what is "vast majority"? never mind.

if you want to try a politics room, just do it. I think it is about as good of an idea as having a Brett Favre room, which is to say its an iffy idea.

[mraynrand]

what is "vast majority"? .

56%

OMG

i got down to the end of the first page thinking it was the end of the thread and saw tex as the last poster. i nearly vomited all over the place thinking that old fuck was still alive and posting again

thank god i saw there was a page two. i can sleep easy tonight thinking he's worm food like usual

[red]

WTF, bring his ass back.....

he added alot to this forum, in drama and other ways. and it would be nice to have him back

but he has self destructed a couple time in massive ways, just begging to be sent away. like a murderer getting out of prison, but then killing someone else and driving the body to the police station, just so he can go back to prison

[Bretsky]

he found a lot of interesting articles and posted them for discussion; I miss that. He was also anti homer; I like to see that as well :)

[SkinBasket]

I stand by my original post. The guy says some pretty off the wall shit for reaction. I admit, I kind of miss his special brand of retarded.

Even after his year long crusade to see me banned, and all his idiotic bullshit over the years, I still recommended to "Joe" that he only be restricted to the Packer section, and not banned outright. He is the worst of humanity. A pampered, outraged, clueless imbecilic manbaby on the rampage. Good entertainment.

That wasn't possible, I also wanted to "restrict" tyrone to FYI, but that wasn't possible either. I'd have done those things if I could've, first.

You seem to know a LITTLE TOO much about this sort of thing u bad ass! :)

[GrnBay007]

I don't care if he comes back.......but dangggggg that kid was HARD-HEADED!!!! Part of me always wanted to see what he had to say in 3-5 years when reality (life) checked in!!!!

There were a few times I actually felt sorry for him when the whole forum was ganging up on him....but that seemed to motivate him even more. Craziness!

[Deputy Nutz]

Free Partial!

[SkinBasket]

Then someone needs to look into creating a new group that's restricted to only the football section. Seems like if we can stop people from going to the GC, which is a crime really, then it shouldn't be impossible to remove permission to the other forum areas. Of course, I don't know just how badly you guys fucked up the set-up, so maybe it is impossible.

I kinda miss Tex destroying you in the Romper Room (prior to FYI), and watching you flee, complaining all the way to the forum administrator for 'allowing political posts on a football site" that you were somehow "unable to avoid" reading. LOL. PS - You have become that which you hate.

[Freak Out]

I liked Tex and after corresponding with him realized we had quite a bit in common.....outside of politics. :)

not on this site you didn't. i learned long ago that trying to talk politics online is a giant waste of time.

tex could never except the fact that other people can have an opinion also, whether it be politics or the packers or anything. you can present all the facts you want, he would ignore them then personaly attack you

[mraynrand]

not on this site you didn't.
If the search function is fixed, enjoy the Tim Russert thread. And every other thread where you argued your inability to avoid arguing politics because you couldn't avoid arguing.

But arguing about the inability to avoid arguing politics wasn't and isn't, apparently.

You could never accept that Tex thought he was right, and argued his points strongly and very often effectively. You preferred not only to be spared his arguments, but to be spared from having to know they existed. As I said, once you started personally attacking him, and wishing for and celebrating his demise, you became what you hated, except that your arguments were never all that compelling or interesting.

[3irty1]

I really doubt he'd come back even if he was told he could. After this much time I'm sure he's kicked the habit or at least found a new Packers group to mix things up with--there is no shortage.

He was the worst most of the time but it was still a mistake to ban him and Ty. Forums need guys like that and there is little debate since everyone is mostly right all the time. Now we're reduced to arguing mostly about racism.

[Freak Out]

I talked to Partial briefly a few months back and he told me he hadn't posted on any football forums in a long time....and didn't miss it. He did say he enjoyed the Cat Fancy forum though....

I'm sure he's giving them all hell about proper litter scooping techniques, and I bet the istore has a wicked new app for cat care that's way better (the same) than anything you'll find on the android market.

If you're talking about the boobie pictures, that's not accurate. Partial told us exactly where he posted and what his user name was on that forum a long long time ago. Several members here knew about his thread over there - independantly. I tried to tell him much later that was not a smart thing to do, but like the other 45 tons of advice that was heaped on that kid... poof. I would dig it up if we could search and show you exactly where he invited all of us to look at topless, pantless pics of him.

Then again, maybe you're talking about something else.

Either way don't wave your sacred Packerrats constitution in my face... the same constitution you administration type "MFers" have been wiping your asses with for the last couple of seasons with. Actually I don't even think their is a rules page anymore in the new forum so maybe its ok to censor and deal out bans as you please.

Not sure if it takes a lot of nerve because you don't think I knew you as well as the others on here or if its because its a bold claim to say that you're the same in person as you are on the site. Some might take that as a compliment.

That post from JH was extremely helpful in picking out the rock. I actually used that as a guide, and watched diamond prices like a hawk for awhile and eventually jumped in when I saw that prices were generally quite low. Thanks x10000 JH, you saved me prolly 2-3 grand and my fiance is stoked with her rock.

As for 3irty1, I really don't have a beef with him. He's an alright guy I guess, a little shady but he's hopefully grown out of that, I wouldn't punch him because I'm a lover not a fighter. Last time I punched someone I was obliterated on water st and it was quite the sally-esque love tap. I don't know him well enough to make the kind of claims he made about me to you (and to the forum). The one thing I do know is he grew up (and I assume enjoyed) the town where my GF currently works, and we cannot stand it, so it's probably just culture clash. He obviously googled me, etc. I still really would like to get together with him and his roommate (my old roommate) and catch up.

Anyway Mad, I will meet you and any of the other peeps here for a game this year. I was obviously way off about ARod who turned into a fricking beast this year, so I will show up wearing an ARod jersey and be ready to eat my crow. That was hella fun the first two years. I haven't been to Lambeau since. That was way fun!
