The great thing that was Packerrats is over. The Packer part is still kinda okey dokey, but the RR and FYI are pretty much gone. The end is spreading over me like a soft warm blanket - oops, that's just me wetting myself. How Gauche!

you can thank you're political forum probably for killing worse

this use to be a fun place where everyone came to fuck around, but a handful of you had to have a politics section. in my experience, nothing kills a forum like talk of politics

my opinion was changed greatly about a few folks just by the few threads i read in there. i'd much rather hack up some of you people now and drag you for a few miles then talk about packer stuff and talk about our favorite songs or movies.

there was no place for politics in a forum about the packers. you had to have one, it HAS fucked up the site and run some people off for good.

go talk politics on a political forum, leave fun shit here

Rand, I think we know what your calling is. I believe it is to start posting random red fun shit that is interesting to bring a pulse back to the RR. I never knew it in the good old days as I lurked the site for a few years before joining, but I think there is still a good collection of random insanity here.

I don't think the political debate affected the other stuff. People argued on opposite sides in FYI and would get along in other areas. I can only think of one person who ran off due to FYI, and there were probably other reasons for it. Red, you consistently complain about FYI, but it's always been easily avoidable, and you've avoided it. Your position has very little support.

FYI is political discussion. And yes, it can be fun - because politics is in part philosophy and can be enjoyable to discuss. It has much more depth and meaning than football games, for example. It is of course, in practice, deadly serious.

Says the guy attacking several posters at once for "ruining" this site. Guess you're going to use your victimhood to ignore the question. Very clever.

I will have you know that far more posters have expressed a favorable view of my worthless bullshit than negative, so put that in your self righteous, egotistic, cry baby pipe and stick it in your ass until it bleeds.

where have i said certain posters were ruining the forum? i said politics ruin forums

are you the all mighty politics?

and do you have numbers on how many more people find you favorable? i got no problem with your little schtick, in fact i like it, but i can see how it would turn off certain posters or run off any possible new posters

but hey, you're the packer rat troll. you're main job here is to get under as many peoples skin as possible. right?

please, use your fucking brain for a change, and your eyes

did i say we had to get rid of anything? did i act like a little bitch and say "get rid of it, or i'm leaving"?

no

i said, "hey am i the only one thinking we are better off without it, what does everyone else think?" mad saw it and liked the idea so he moved it, i did not ask him for that. it could have just stayed in the RR and 4 people would have seen the thing. but mad wanted to get the opinion of everyone

now that the vote is not going my way do you see me acting like a little bitch and trying to hijack the ,forum and threaten to leave?

and judging by the vote, again, ITS NOT JUST FUCKING ME that thinks politics on a forum like this is a bad idea

the difference between you and me is that i had the balls to actually do something by starting a poll and ASKING others, where you just sit there and bitch, cry, and throw your own little fit that makes you look even worse then me in the eyes of everyone

I wouldn't take the poll as a mandate. You worded the choices about as slanted as you possibly could have. It reads as if you're opposing the inclusion of political discussion in the Packers forum when you're really in opposition to politics in the political forum on a Packers website.

i don't see the site like that at all

the entire place is built around the packer forum, we are all here because of the packer forum. i see FYI, the RR , bucks forum, etc as being sub forums of the main packer forum. those were branched off and made to keep the main packer forum running smoothly

but i guess i can see your point. in fairness to me, i did start it in the RR where it might have made more sense

and one of the main parts that the politicos are bitching about is mad telling them that political sigs and avs aren't allowed. thats politics being outside FYI. rand said he would once again quit if mad made him remove his av, then he might have quit anyways. maxi changed his stuff without bitching, and skin jumped on cause there was a fight and he loves fucking with everyone and everything

I'd totally agree with you if you wanted stricter policing of political sigs, avs, and any other content. The rules are very clear and Mad bends just the right amount IMO. At the end of the day if you left over something like an av that Mad made you change, there wasn't much keeping you here in the first place.

What you're talking about is not additional policing, its eliminating the FYI all together. I think that's bad.
