Get it out of your system sourmash, I fully admit to counter punching your attacks. And when I do, I normally report my own posts to admin if I think I've gotten close to the line.
Go ahead, let it out. As I've stated previously, when it comes to some, tolerance is not the ticket.

There are somewhere between 15 to 18 "Covid" threads in the first 4 pages of O/T and almost without exception every one of them has become political.
Can we presume that those threads will also be moved to the Trash?

I wondered the same thing.

Why would you bring such a horrible thought onto a car forum like this? You should be ashamed of yourself.

People report their own posts. wow. Just wow.
In hope of getting away with violating the rules where they've personally attacked other people?[This message has been edited by sourmash (edited 02-22-2022).]

The problems on this Forum could be easily rectified if members would act like adults, rather than spoiled children.
If you don't like what someone says, ignore it.
If something is said that offends you, quit being thin-skinned.

It'd be a good idea to delete the portion of a post that violates the rules. A meme posted that remains in place will just foment more discontent from more people and that was the goal of the person who posted it. But it ain't my board and we're guests.

If you are suggesting that a moderator go through threads and edit posts, I would disagree. That would take a lot of time.
Make people go out of their way to a seldom used section of the Forum to discuss politics. This seems best to me. Over the years the majority of complaints from Forum members is about angry political issues.
I don't want to see political discussions banned from PFF, but I admit that politics is ugly, move it out of the mainstream OT discussion.
This should not be an undue burden on Cliff.

Rather than relying on a moderator to create a particular area for political wrangling, simply don't open threads marked 'politics'.
Self censor rather than promote any type of censorship of speech.
If one doesn't want to participate, then use your mental 'ignore' function.
Our system is built on personal responsibility.
We need to get back to that on lots of levels.
Why should we burden Mr. Pennock with our own lack of the exercising of personal responsibility.
Just Say No.

No, I am not asking for that at all. It only pertains to reported posts. If it warrants a suspension as happened recently, or is a violation just wipe the offending meme or comment.
