Should the Off the Court and Political forum be remerged

[jstern]

I like having the different sections. One spot for politics, another for everything else. But I feel that it adds to the lack of traffic and prevents growth.

If someone from the main NBA forum visits the Off the Court forum, chances are that they're not going to see much happening, and quickly lose interest. There might have been an interesting topic that they might have liked in the Political Discussion, but chances are that they're not going to see it, either by losing interest in checking things out, or lack of awareness that there's even such a section.

Another example might be topics about something like the Corona, which is known by all, but that were posted in the Political forum, and thus the person that went to the Off the Court never got to see it.

Then there's also the muscle memory, for a lack of a better term, aspect of going to checking the Off the Court, seeing nothing, then checking the Political forum. That little extra step probably equals to 300% less participation. That extra step could actually become annoying after a while, for the regulars, (FultzNationRISE, Highwhey, Bladef, AKA_AAP, Stalker, Diamenz, Axe, Long Dong, Jasper, Off the Court, Satan, TheMan, theman93, Nanners, Warriorfan, Patrick Chewing, and many more) Mr.Fonzworth, I rarely see him, probably because he's exhausted from having to go back and forth, and thus he sticks to the main NBA forum.

Taje an extra addy today?

Oh wow, look how many posters op has mentioned here.

Not sure how to answer the question. I fear that a lot of regular posters left the forum post-2016 due to how often Politics and Trump were discussed, that not even a different forum solely meant for Politics was enough to keep these posters here. The one poster that stands out to me the most is rufuspaul. He was a regular, and was on the Right side of the aisle, but he found himself being swamped with political talk and he became a huge Trump hater after the whole Covid fiasco I think. So he was at odds with almost everyone, including myself. And he was a cool dude. So I think he realized there was no escaping this kind of hateful rhetoric that takes place on here on a daily basis and he just left.

I get tired of talking about Politics, and I'm willing not to talk about Politics ever again on here, but there are so many posters (with their alts) who will continue to troll and continue to post about Politics that it's almost impossible to ignore. And when their hateful rhetoric is an affront to you personally, you're almost certain to lash out and retaliate.


And if you don't understand what I'm talking about, just walk over to the Politics Forum and look for a thread created by that mental midget Lakers Legend that talks about how Sarah Palin lost to a Democrat. There is nothing Political about that thread. It's a bait thread to lure Right-Wingers into it. All it does is throw shade to people that the mental midget doesn't like, which happens to be Republicans/Conservatives.

I'm not sure how you fix this. Cause even if a person such as myself creates a thread in the Off The Court Forum or the NBA Forum, the trolls that attack you in the Politics Forum just jump to the thread you created to troll and attack you there. Now, this excludes the attacks that myself and highweight have. That's a personal war that will last till the end of time, or till highweight's heart gives out. That's different. But I'll create a thread about "Rate this chick" and the mental midgets will follow in unison and start posting something about Trump or Republicans. It's ridiculous and sad.

The only logical solution I have or "quick fix" is to outright ban the following posters: LakersLegend, Off The Court, bladefd, Facepalm, RRR3, Axe, and SATAN.

A former Republican vice presidential nominee loses her attempt to win a congressional seat and Poopsie says it has nothing to do with politics.

Tubby is really taking that loss hard.

I'm sorry, but you have to go.

Deal. But only after you give me a diamond from your jewelry store first.

You said you would leave the board but you're a dishonest hypocrite who talks more shit than anyone. Kill yourself, you free speech hating redneck.

Why don't you try to kill me instead? I dare you.

If you get rid of the political forum, you will wipe out the last 10 years of Poopsie's entire life.

I wasn't lying. They want me dead.

Every Liberal on this board and in real life acts this way. They are too emotionally compromised to act like a regular human being.

This might be potentially true. And I blame Biden's and CNN's rhetoric.

There's a reason why they do it, and it's because it's effective. FultzNationRISE talks a lot about people who blindly follow the establishment.

Look at this picture.



With blood background, silhouette of of the military, as he calls Republicans and Donald Trump supporters, essentially the biggest threat to the United States. Action must be taken.

It's pure Hitler.

You're not tough, you obese geek internet gangster.
