Unprovoked?
You're making history for yourself at a near record-setting pace.
I like topical discussions. Discussions about specific topics. How many of us want to see a "Let's dish (gossip) about Patrick" discussion, or a "Let's focus on olejoedad" discussion?
Conversations like that (and there's been a lot of it, over the years) are so "pre-August 15."

Even though I didn't appreciate his comments regarding me, I genuinely tried to give sourmash a thoughtful response. In return, I get accusations of a "deflective insult". It's obvious, despite his relative newness, that sourmash already appears to have an agenda.[This message has been edited by Patrick (edited 12-12-2020).]

There are people in this thread that learned that the hard way and I would go so far as to say they go to great extent to hide who they are here in OT, if the behavior that got them run out of GFC is any indication.
OT recently, has begun to move MUCH closer to those sections, after a few years of being the bad boy of PFF.

Yes, it's that hiding of who they are that helps expose them though, isn't it? Casting discords from a place you aren't willing to state for defense when confronted is clearly hiding behind some invisible something. And it's not a mystery to anyone about the potential coarseness of the O/T discussions given the subjects. And really I don't think anyone is unclear about what I'm saying.

Here's an honesty test question. A simple one.
Can you list the people responsible for Cliff having to start knuckling down?

I think part of it is typical hot topic subjects: politics, life style, racism........yada yada. Those things aren't a typical part of the other sections.
I also think that the old saying "give them an inch and they will take a mile" comes into play as well. Cliff has not policed the Off Topic section with an iron fist. That has contributed to a mindset of, pushing the limits.

I suspect in all honesty, that no one other than Cliff knows the true answer to that, since it was and is Cliff's decision, and the change may not have been tied to any particular members' activity at all..
Any lists by members would be pure speculation at best

I know it wasn't me. Will people be honest enough to point the finger at themselves? Usually no.

You don't know how to get over yourself do you, Pat? Much like Trump, you think you have to keep going to get the last word. Guess what? I'm not asking you so stop flattering yourself at someone else's expense.
I quit wondering when I posted last night about what a centrist truly is, which triggered you to hiss some insults.

Even though you registered under this username four years ago, you weren't a presence here until a few weeks ago. Now you're everywhere, and know everything.
