The Characters involved....


The mods (Keep things in line while all having secret jokes none of us regulars know about)

The people who drop in every once in a while who used to be regulars..... (G$$, G2, Gobbla, D303APP,PPHSFan, etc.)

The stat guy that noone else has.... (Wos87)

A few people who keep things constantly funny (Nobogey, kep, emerson, etc.)

The senseless homers.... (applies to all homers)

The people who constantly piss each other off (there are many)

The "Drama Queens"---------

And then there is a group called other....(IDC and Bocephus can call this home)

There are many more..... Am I leaving off anybody or aspect that is important?

Don't ever put a g$$ in the same sentence as PPHSfan, G2 and Gobbla no matter what it is.

All I'm saying is that this board used to be more fun. Then the rules changed that disallowed almost any thread that might not be "PC" and now it's pretty boring.

Again, this is just my opinion.

The board will always be what you make it, IMO.

90% of the time I have fun with the different "characters" of the board.

When I'm not having fun, I log out.

Seems pretty simple to me!

We've had the "no politics" rule for years. And yes, that "one" thread would've made it there in very short order!

It's not about being PC because I, for one, have a dislike for being PC. I do know there is a good and bad way to approach ANY subject.

Like p4s said, it's what you make it.

I guess my point would be that any subject that even remotely may take a wrong turn is shut down immediately. I know this makes ya'lls job easier, but it does shut down some interesting discussions before they even have to opportunity to take a wrong turn. I used to enjoy some more interesting discussions. They kept the board lively.:)

Beating a dead horse & going round & round with the same posters is interesting? :speech:

Next time you want an interesting discussion on those subjects might I suggest you take it up in private messages and spare the rest of us the grief!

Exactly right. The board is what you make it. If you want those discussions to cause you grief, then they will. If you want to look at those discussions as "beating a dead horse" then that's exactly what they'll be to you. It's how you perceive it.

If you've been around a bunch of guys often enough, you know we talk about some of the same stuff all the time. It may get tiring to you, but to us we enjoy it. That doesn't make us right or you right, but it is what it is.

You are correct, but we have to keep the peace for EVERYONE.

I can promise you, because I've received countless PMs, that we (mods) aren't the only ones that don't find those certain topics interesting!

The bottom line is we (mods/owners) have the final say on what subjects can and can not be discussed (see rules). We may not always agree on certain subjects, but we all have the ENTIRE boards best interest at heart.

Either you can live with that or you can't.

and that's all I have to say about that!

SEDITION - Conduct which is directed against a government and which tends toward insurrection but does not amount to treason. Treasonous conduct consists of levying war against the United States or of adhering to its enemies, giving them aid and comfort.

The raising commotions or disturbances in the state; it is a revolt against legitimate authority.

If someone does not like a thread and are not posting in it then why should their opinion matter? They should just not read it and move on about their business. Instead they have whined until everyone gets punished. I am sorry people are thin skinned and cant take any one disagreeing with them. I have seen plenty of heated discussions that didnt cross any personal lines get shut down...and for what reason?

Everyone can do what I do and only drop in from time to time....;)

This was a "what makes 3adownlow great" not a big pity party because there are certain topics that are either off limits or allowed on a limited basis. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:


And you know...if the rules here are too much, well, I think you know your options. :)
