Within the past two weeks, to be precise. Since February 8.

I find your attempt to place the blame on those returning from ban bets pretty funny considering how much you've been trolling with sarcastic posts, and shitposting in general, in the thread.

Want a serious discussion? Start one. Want to follow me around like a troll with random stupid remarks that add nothing? Make low content posts like Twitter spam on useless topics? You will get less serious replies in return.

I'm going to leave it at that because I'm not up for another meta-politics discussion. I have had way too many of those. Nevertheless, I did notice a precipitous decline in discussion quality right after my above comment, so I stick to that interpretation.

You're the one that for some obvious reason keeps targeting LL when there are almost everyone else doing the exact same thing that you keep ignoring.

well since there's no worthwhile discussion going on we may as well lock the thread and ban political discussion completely, right?

false charge; just because I notice LL doing it more than most doesn't mean I don't notice others doing it as well, and wouldn't favor actions against those others. I don't need to call out every infractor in order to complain about a specific infractor. please keep your facts straight.

tofu, what's needed is more warnings for the frequent infractions, and some bans if necessary.
but if it's too hard to moderate a shutdown may be better.

Talk about airing of grievances. Singling out LegalLord out of pages of shitpost city is just zlefin's political leanings on display.

If the conversation isn't up to my standards then there shouldn't be a conversation at all.

If it wasn't a false charge you'd go after anyone else after we've hit you time after time for oddly going just after LL.

you really need to be more careful in exactly what your claiming.

if you need time to review for warnings, then of course.
from what I can see, the time where a temp threadlock can allow stuff to cool usefully seems to have passed; stuff has already cooled off some.

I previously said that I wouldn't argue with you but I feel that I should discredit you somehow then state again that I'm not going to argue with you. I don't understand at all what you are doing so I think repeating the same shitty debate tactic will make me look good to people that normally agree with me.

LegalLord's overall posting record is solid. the signal-to-noise ratio of his posts is above the site average.

i learn new things from LL's posts. i probably agree with LL 50% of the time. if he wants to joke around sometimes.. so be it. if he wants to make fun of me ( which he never has ) when he doesn't agree with me ... i don't care.

if i've known someone more than 6 months and they've never offended me... i don't trust them. i wonder ... what is this person trying to sell?

too many people in the US Politics thread are wandering around waiting to be offended. its lame.

The unrealistic sound of these propositions is indicative, not of their utopian character, but of the strength of the forces which prevent their realization.
