FR is run by cliquish Mods and Freepers that hurl insults and falsehoods who FB you if you don't agree.

Posted on 05/28/2020 3:36:32 PM PDT by fightin kentuckian

The rules say "be considerate" most of the Freepers are anything but, constantly hurling innuendo, names, and insults. But it's my fault or something like that so my threads get pulled without any explanation. And then the mods call me "thick". That's considerate?

I'm a rock solid conservative, retired, 24 year Army Vet, and still work for the Army. I'm a lifetime member of the VFW and NRA. I'm a 20 year contributor to FR and the mods wont even answer a question, but instead call me names and insult me.

"What does “FB you” (if you don’t agree) mean?"

I've been here almost 23 years and don't know either.

I can’t comment because your gripe contains no particulars - what you posted and when it was deleted, who (FR handle) insulted you, ect., ect. Not saying your complaint is empty, only that your presentation of it is empty.

We should have some rules here for these opuses. None of this lame vague stuff. At least answer Who, What, When, Where, and How. Details.

I think I know what you mean. I’ve seen explanations like “duplicate” and “excerpts not permitted”. Those make sense.

But I’ve also seen just “pulled” and “no thanks”. Those don’t give much guidance. Maybe I’m looking in the wrong place.

I got flamed a few days ago. Instead of responding in kind I just congratulated the guy on being that deep into his Memorial Day booze supplies. I must have been right - he went away.

And there ya have it.

Jim. We are all adults here. Well legally. But how many times have you and the moderators asked, pleaded and told people NOT to use profanities?

Yet Fight here used the daddy of all f-bombs. You guys are too tolerant. You need to start dropping 3 day time outs on FReepers when they do this. Including variations like f-— you and so on.

Except for me, of course. You will please continue to overlook my bad language?

Thank you.

To: Leaning Right

Yeah, you’re right.

Sometimes the explanation is useless.

But “No Thanks” is a common reason for pulling a thread. Usually posted when a thread goes past the decency boundaries.

"What is FB?"

Could it be this?

FB = Flibbets-of-the-Blowhole

I just had an epiphany. How about you start your own website and it’s just for complaining and griping about stuff? I think it would be a big hit. I know what you’re thinking. BB, how can I thank you. That’s a dandy idea. What do I owe you, BB. Nothing. nada. It’s my gift to you and I wish you success.

I was in that thread, and I did indeed take issue with the suggestion that Black Lives Matters had any rational role in it. (Because they don’t. Their role is to inflame a situation)

I didn’t think the thread itself as posted was all that terrible (even if I disagreed with that aspect of it)

I also wasn’t all that surprised it got pulled, just because I have seen so many threads just like that one go off the rails.

fighting kentuckian, I am sure if you have been around for a while, you must have had a thread pulled before. I’ve had a few.

But by and large. the Mods do a reasonable job, IMO, and you would probably do better to just forget about that one.

What does your OTHER polar side of your personality think of that stand you have taken there?
