I never said I got offended by either of those two pics. In fact , my darker side of humor thinks they are both funny. My point was......you can't just get offended by one them. You are either offended by both , or laugh at both. Both equally offensive and funny , and that's where the difference lies.

How about a thumbs down emoticon for when you want to "downvote" something and don't care if everyone knows it was you ? Like the anonymous down vote feature, but for men.

In the 70's I was referred to a Toad once. I was a weapons specialist on aircraft and they called us load toads. I was not offended. But my skin was not green either.

I very rarely attack another person on here unless they start it. I don’t understand personal attacks. If you don’t agree then fine but don’t have to be a jerk about it. Over 25 years on here I’ve probably only been involved in those a few times.

I hate it when a thread gets clipped. I despise it. We are mostly grown ups and I at least know which comment to ignore and just scroll past it. I understand not everyone can do that.

I would recommend it a thread gets out of hand don’t delete the thread just put something above a comment that says. “This comment has violated board rules”. That way people know what’s good and what’s not. Then you can just delete that comment later if need be.

As far as threads like the dungey one you can clean it up then lock it. Everything has been said on it so lock the thread.

No easy answer. Just try different things. Let people moderate themselves as much as possible and know that 95 percent of the people on here scroll right past the stupid comments or argument comments anyways.

This is a discussion board and it’s fun and entertaining and we like to shoot the shit. Even if some of us say stupid shit it’s just still fun to shoot the shit.

The bad problem is that discussions are also opinions, and if a moderator doesn't like your opinion then your either clipped, or your opinion has vanished with no explanation. It's Gibby's world we are living in, so his rules.

Oh and BTW GuyBro, you are the one that said get it off your chest, so I'm not sure why you clipped a few people when you asked for it, to begin with, right? That's like picking a fight drunk outside the bar with someone, then suing them when they whip your ass.

I find it funny how If I call myself dumb. Doesn’t get clicked. But if I tell Jeffro that sometimes there aren’t answers to his questions....that gets clicked.

Both are benign posts. Doesn’t make sense to me.

Still haven’t figured out what’s safe and what isnt.

I thought I was being pretty respectful with what I said. My opinions were short and to the point , and I didn't go off calling anyone a bunch of names.Even the pics I posted weren't directed at anyone , but put up as an example of how different people , view things differently. Last night I get home from work and see like the entire last page is filled up with comments from like 5 internet social justice warriors , going bat shit nuts on me haha.

I read a few and had thought about commenting , and then I was like " Nah.....I already said my bit , no need to repeat it". The irony was , they were trying to paint me as something I'm not , all while making themselves look exactly like what they were preaching against.
