DaCostaBR: And that's exactly the problem.

If you were to post a single piece of news people could have a conversation, they could verify sources and have a debate, but you don't.

You post 100 links, who cares if it's all bullshit or not? I like what they're saying so I'll post it here, let everyone else sort it out.
Agreed. Clear admission on a continually bumped thread, serious by admission as opposed to "less serious news".

Hopefully the blue community will pass a judgement on this.

And yet my less serious news section which does single articles every week or something depending on if I find something particularly funny....

No discussion.
No conversation.
Not a word.
Nothing.

(at least in the last month or so)

Is it not voluntary, though? I checked out his thread, didn't feel like posting there, left and never came back. Yes, I still occasionally see it on the front page. So what? It's not like its existence is hurting me. If someone has an aneurysm every time they notice it, they should probably see a specialist to help them with their anger issues.

It depends on your point of view.

You are obviously not bothered, one way or the other. Why then have you posted in this thread?

Bullshit gets called, it must be called at all times.

Because nobody cares. That's what you don't understand, just because you care for something doesn't mean every one else does. The forum isn't your personal blog.

I guess the thought that people are simply sick of you didn't occur to you?

You have achieved your ultimate goal November 9th. And we're sliding into the era of neo-American science now, an era in which NASA isn't allowed to investigate climate change because Trump doesn't like the inevitable results. You'll basically have the propaganda science of the Sovjet Union. People will need time to recuperate before they start addressing your bullshit again.

But rest assured, they will.

And what was my ultimate goal overall?

As for NASA... weren't they intended to go into space? How is having NASA focus on space exploration (their original goal) a bad thing?

I have no issue with you having this thread. I have no issue with you not liking rtcvb32 and calling him out on what you believe to be bullshit. You have every right to dislike him and to state that publicly. You have every right to have and share your opinion of him as a deranged conspiracy theorist. You have every right to curse me out right now and tell me that you wish me to die slowly and painfully.

You just don't have the right to delete his thread. That's all I'm saying.

I'm not sure you're aware what the topic is.

If you'd like me to keep the thread on the present track, I could reply to Emob78 telling him how ZFR's naming and shaming p_dawg absolutely was "singling anyone out". I could tell Emob that there was no objectivity involved in a post that finds more fault in a few quirky joke threads in general chat – made by a respected member who dares to focus on video games – than in an 84 page monstrosity half of which consists of thousands of abject alt-right propaganda lies reposted by the thread starter. And I could tell him that if he really believed rtcvb32 is keeping it in just one thread, he should send e.g. OneFiercePuppy a PM, maybe Puppy could tell him about his many run-ins with rtcvb32's kind of logic on this forum during the last years.

All on topic, no?

Or maybe I'd reply to Shadowstalker asking him whether he'd revoked his stance on 'pizzagate' this last week, whether he now understood that the "one-sidedness" he "sensed" may have been because he put his nose into an issue that only had one side to begin with. Or maybe I'd ask him whether this week's violent first highlight of the abject conspiracy theory maybe even brought him to reevaluate the real-life danger of forum-organized nutjob activism.

Also, totally on topic.

I have no intention of deleting this thread, even if I had the power to do so. I am aware that you have issues with thread deletion. They do not belong in this thread however.

Maybe if your threads were deleted then YOU would have problems with it or would you say nothing and move on?Yes,then why are you here?

No. Think before you post. If you cannot verify the information you are posting, say it's unverified instead of posting it as a fact.
Not taking the time to verify what you are reposting can lead to problems and panic. Think of the recent-ish trolling about charging your phone by putting it in the microwave or how a software update makes your phone waterproof. Both can be verified/disproved in minutes, but reposting them as true can cause a lot of damage.
Unless of course you post them in order to cause damage, in which case you should be held liable for damage caused. Ignorance is not an excuse.
