FFA 2.0-Can't We All Just Get Along (1 Viewer)

Seems like the FFA has been pretty contentious lately. A closed thread would be news but lately one gets closed everyday .Name slinging all over the place. Cant we all just agree/disagree civily . The FFA has been a great place to kill time online and I've always appreciated these boards. 

 
I seriously doubt this thread will get much traction . Everyone is looking for a shootout at the ok corral . 
When part of the problem wants to be part of the solution, one can only hope that's a step in the right direction. Can't say I'm holding out hope though 

 
There are plenty of threads that are all smiles.

Political threads probably always going to be somewhat prickly.
Exactly.  I don't really even know much about people that seem to draw much ire.  I just stick with the humor/TV/beer/sports/chicks threads.  So much more enjoyable.

:goodposting:

for the most part the only energy in political threads is negative on both sides 

 
I agree but you aren't exactly a choirboy either 

:hifive:
Never said I was, but what you and the little sqius stalking society  you're part of are doing transcends anything I, or just about anyone else has ever done on this board to another poster. 

I agree that he's the worst, and will gladly take a random shot at him where it's appropriate, but you people have spent countless hours hounding this guy over the last 4 or so months.

Its pathetic

Those are all good topics. I'll read pretty much anything in here when I have time. 

The political threads can be great as well. Lots of crazy, funny stuff. You get to see how people think that is totally alien to your own circle. 

 
I do my best to be even handed. I have taken both parties to task. On a personal level I don't care if I disagree with you in one thread if I think you're right I'll agree with you in another. I try to keep the name calling minimal. I do sometimes work the language filter a bit. I've been here a long time and taken my fair share of crap. I've dished some out because like everyone I am no saint. But in general it's not my way to do things. And really the level of general animosity ebbs and flows. It isn't the worst it's been that's for sure.

I don't want to go negative in this thread but the guy has brought one of my Ds into the conversation a few times and I engaged. 90% he seems like a good guy . I'll leave it at that. 

 
What was said?
1st off it wasn't to the extreme. He kept using her as an example and I told him to stop but he kept doing it over and over . To the point of creepiness. I'm a big boy but leave my family out of it. I've forgiven him but he never apologized . 

 
I'll let HT answer that. Because I don't know all of it and I would hate to get anything wrong.
Fair enough. It doesn't really matter. Anything seriously said about someone's family is obviously a little much.

I don't follow the ins and outs so much and I see all kinds of hate for Squisition which I don't understand.

That does sound a bit weird.

Yeah he can be annoying. He has come after me a couple of times. But he isn't the worst. For that matter I like HT. We don't always agree but he seems like good folks.

I don't mind him and kind of like him. To be fair he's his own worst enemy. His biggest fault is he locks on and won't walk away . His motto seems to be when they go low I go lower . He likes football .

I like how you are passionate about politics but don't resort to labeling and name calling people who have differing opinions. 

I actually think politically we are more alike than you might think.

 
I am.  Luckily I have been able to stay outta those threads and have been song drafting instead.  Serenity now!
The song drafts can never end, it keeps a segment of the FFA sane.

Also, OP of this thread contributes to a lot of the hostility here with way too his liberal use of the :lmao:  smiley.

You cause 6% of the total ire each day, buttswab.  :mellow:

wisdom up in that opine  :thumbup:

as far as politics is concerned, i will engage vociferously in person ... but, save for a few forays here and there, i gladly avoid it online (especially here) - folks dug too damn deep :shrug:   i'll peruse the political threads every so often, and toss a 'like' when i see a valid/humorous point, but, that's about the extent of it.

I think I'm taking this course as well when it comes to politics
