I didn't say that, did I? I said that perhaps you should just have a single thread for specific topics.
I disagree my threads are a problem.

Multiple people including a moderator have said your threads are a problem

Any more than the posters you missed Lestov or Omega vision were talking about me in relation to racist views, I.e. not caring who died.
As I said, I can't help you people don't like my threads or replies.

Bait threads.
Troll threads.
Unnecessary news threads.
Necro-bumping threads.
Back & Forth dick waving threads.
Juvenile threads.
Stupid and banal threads.
Sock character threads.More than half of these threads belong in the OTF. Just because KMC is at a snail's crawl by the few but remaining faithful doesnt' mean that we can't have a modicum of civility and seriousness.
The General Discussion Forum is now the equivalent of a short bus of people wearing helmets.
Have fun destroying what's left of KMC.
I'll keep to other branches of the board.
Yes clearly none of these belong to you

Anything Trump related goes in there and furthers the pre-existing conversation. Anything Coronavirus related goes in the Coronavirus or COVIDiots thread. If you have to make a thread, why not limit it to, say, one or two a day? Because you and Broly have been non-stop for the best part of a week, and it's getting silly.My point is that this kind of thread-spamming is specifically what Impediment was talking about when he said the GDF was turning into a cesspool. And he's right: it makes it less cohesive and only furthers tribal conflicts, instead of actually focusing on one or two good topics at a time.
He's trolling you.

I didn’t say I missed them. Stop lying.
Someone asked who left I mentioned some.

To them, Trumper = anyone that disagrees with themBoth me and IIRC, DDM have been called Trumpers and we supported both Bernie and Tulsi.
I was called alt-right, right-wing, racist, and Nazi, as well.
I am one of if not the furthest left, active, on this site. It's kind of funny.
It's odd. But, I blame it all on TDS.

Hopefully the worlds much justified TDS will banish in November. My fingers are crossed.
Trump winning will make it worse. I'm expecting a very small handful of extremists to just lose it when Trump wins.
I'll be safe in Oklahoma. The reddest state in the union. Other states like NY and CA (Dem strongholds where no Republican has even the slightest chance of winning in several decades) is where I expect the meltdowns and rage to mostly be.

And we can draw a line under the last few years as an abhorrent aberration based on a flawed voting system 👆
Impediment is right (and I'm biased towards him because he reads Preacher.)
A lot of the content people share in this section of the forum is worth discussion, but the problem is - we don't ever actually discuss them. It's getting into the same arguments with the same people every day. People post with the only goal being to trigger someone in specific, or else dogpile on someone. More than half of the time, I don't buy that people here actually FEEL how they are expressing, instead just saying things in opposition of the members they already hate. It's so dumb, and the lengths at which people go in order to pretend to have a civil discourse isn't sad, it isn't disappointing, it's just stupid.
The forum isn't dead, it just isn't getting new blood. So we are stuck yelling at each other ad nauseam.
Originally posted by QuincyI don't disagree and threads where members are asked to "name their kills", the posters they have driven away don't help.
