I dunno. He kept telling me to shut up about race when the primaries started saying it was not an issue.Yes which is why I nominate Kevin. He can see between the "playing" and figure out what is really trouble and what is just having fun.
I hope theres not going to be a group hug now.I would say the Pit members actually seem to be some of the most intellectual posters. Also we can kinda let loose give each other hard times. Agree at times and disagree at others..:up
If the rules of etiquitte are not different in the Pit then move all the threads to the chit chat section.But the rules of etiquette aren't supposed to be different, just the nature of the discussion, which we know gets heated. Alas, it regularly gets heated through name-calling.
We had the conversation earlier about good natured humor; I understand the joking around, but its hard to draw a line. And rule #1 is broken regularly. Can't you admit that?
As far as moving posts to the pit, I think we as a staff collectively realized that was a mistake. And as far as I am concerned, if there is a political or religious thread outside of the pit, it should be closed, with the last post inviting those who want to continue the discussion to take it to the pit. As a general rule, we should NOT move threads to the pit. 110% behind that.
I don't want to see the pit closed, but I hate that we have to have these decorum threads every two or three months.

Especially when the pub prides itself on mutating topics within the threads.I gotta agree with the Bear, as usual. There is nothing I hate more than topic nazis. I see it on far too many forums.

Since this discussion has ran it's course, perhaps we should close out this thread and move any further discussions to the still open thread in the pit.Oops i am very sorry!! I need to pay attention better i thought is was the pit because of all the posters. Once again i am sorry..

Funny how some of you are against those who report posts from the Pit, yet those same people who are saying that are the ones doing that.
I know of one well known Pit dweller who constantly hits the report post button yet he does the same thing in the Pit as the one he's reporting....
This subversive subliminal undermined outing is just plain wrong. Its rumor mongering to incite internal dissension, finger pointing and unrest at its worst. THe carrot dangling of I know what you don't, wouldn't you like to know is so, well... unprofessional. Either tell us or don't say anything. We know you don't like the PIT but What your doing is the evilest of evil. Its wrong..Funny how some of you are against those who report posts from the Pit, yet those same people who are saying that are the ones doing that.

But it sounds like it may be just one person who's doing the "Report Post". As already said, that person probably shouldn't be in the Pit...Maybe so, but I have had mods tell me that the reports from the pit exceed everything else put together. You owe them some thanks for their general restraint, instead of complaining when they express some frustration.
They can frustrate all they want. I'll even listen..And thank them afterwards. Thats not my point. Its the intentional baiting with snippets of "secret" information about other members thats wrong. If the intent is to cause mistrust between the members then its just wrong.Maybe so, but I have had mods tell me that the reports from the pit exceed everything else put together.
