I don't think I am out of line by posting this. I am just curious what the general population thinks of this. Should we be able to vote people off the site? There are certain people who bother us to no end. Constantly dragging us and our beloved franchise threw the mud. At what point does a few extra Google AdSense clicks become worth it? Are we being bullied by an internet forum and not banning people, for a few AdSense clicks? I would donate whatever "certain posters" generate just to not see them around. Anyhow, I am curious what you all think of being able to vote posters off under extenuating circumstances.
semi ironic coming from you, having been banned/suspended multiple times. but no, it would become a cocksucking party, we dont all have to get along, and even the computer nerds can go to prom.
Absolutely not. People can do whatever they want on this site as long as they are within the site rules.
You are right. And if I was voted off the forum, I would accept it. Good points guys. Thanks for the info. MIXUM just pissed me the hell off earlier and I am trying to figure out ways to get him gone besides flying to Buffalo !
I agree that it would be a bad idea to vote folks out. Especially when there is such an easy way to avoid having to do so: the ignore feature.
I voted yes, because a lot of posters make this place suck, however, I downloaded FFVB for firefox which totally removes posters from the entire message board when you add them to the FFVB ignore list. As in, I never see the word "MIXUM" on my screen. I was going to add PapaG, for the stupid avatar fiasco, but decided not to... lol. no hard feelings bro.
I like free speech, even if I don't agree with it. Actually, especially if I don't agree with it. I like to have my assumptions and viewpoints challenged; any good idea can withstand the crucible of debate.
Free speech and the exercise of it is part of what makes this place unique. Change that by holding kangaroo court every time someone gets their panties in a bind and this website will simply turn into a giant circle jerk.
I can't say that I consider many of the problem posters/threads to be bastions of intelligent debate. It's more like a handful of idiots screaming at the top of their lungs and everyone else just trying to talk around them, and occasionally everyone gets swept up into trying to explain logic/reason to people with less analytical skills than a toddler.
