Why are the PARFaits wandering?

One of my little friends at PARF decided to take his disagreement with me out into the real world, spreading lies about me in the local PCA and track communities. Another decided to call jihad on me, directly threatening to come out to my house and kill me. All because of political disagreements.

It's odd--these are people I've never met, and who I might actually be friends with in real life, seeking to do serious damage to me professionally and personally. Because of a stupid online political board. It certainly brings out the worst in people.

Weird. I mean it's not like you ever got deep into PARF ...and downright nasty towards others there.

I guess others took you a bit too seriously. although I'm questioning how much you are embellishing^. I mean now that you want to sanitize yourself from being waist deep in PARF for so long.

I find myself coming here less and less these days. Too many instances where people let their politics bleed over and ruin what could have been a good discussion.

Okay guys and gals... I'm really starting to get tired of this. I've seen some stuff and others are PM'ing me about PARF posts in PPOT. It just keeps increasing these past few weeks and it really shouldn't. Because of this, I'm going to start handing out bans.

Please keep PPOT seperate from PARF.

PM me if you see something that shouldn't be here.

[pavulon]

Thank you. Sincerely.

Can we PM you if we get a full page of "back and forth" between 2 Pelicans in PPOT that is nothing but insults?

Yes, please do. If you see stupid stuff going on in PARF or anywhere, just let me know directly- don't hit the report button.

PARF is by no means a no mans land. You should still be able to have a respectful discussion there.

Eric, it is often the people complaining that bring up the subjects and make the posts.

Kinda weird.

It is disagreement with them that they don't like.

Good to know you'll be on the job. I think some people will be surprised when the rules tighten to find they are breaking them themselves.

I like to wait until a topic moves, or is moved to reply if the subject belonged in PARF. There have been a few times in the past that movement hasn't happened.

Ha ha - your post, of course - is funny to those that can laugh and not take themselves and others too seriously, butt highly offensive to those who are always looking to be triggered.

Thanks Eric.

[pavulon]

Pretty much all of the usual offenders have self-identified here already.

No shortage of manbuns (not like THAT! ) in the DFW area - always funny to see!

I just looked at it, you are the one that broke it. One has to wonder who the babies were that reported you.

I laughed at your post because of how true it was. I can see some SJW's getting their panties in a wad over it.

Some people make fun on things in OT that I find off putting, I move on and do not bother mods with it. I have no idea what kind of defect a person has to have in order to feel a need to stir the pot to the point that a mod is losing his temper over posts on a freaking car forum.

Some sad people out there.

I apologize for that, I got side tracked when I was deleting a post. It's open again though!
