    But why should they be, when they would have everything they need over there.

    Hey kids, What time is it?

    I get it. It's an Internet version of Sundowner Syndrome - you see in it nursing homes & retirement homes - as the day slides off into night, the older residents become agitated, especially those with neurological issues - often Alzheimer's. The day's end is too close a parallel to the ending of their personal days, I suppose. An interesting thought.

    I just found the "opinions and facts" ironic considering the power hacks here who regularly dispute opinions and ignore and/or cherry pick facts.

    Starting around 4pm it changes. Things get snarky and eventually become hostile. I also notice the morning is where your more conservative level headed folks chime in.

    I can only imagine the afternoon is when others start sleeping off their drunk or coming down off the meth but it is a clear pattern.

    This is evident in Society at whole. We know that you can walk through the most violent neighborhoods in America from 8am to 12 noon and never have an issue. The worm starts to turn after 3pm though. I feel our forum has the same clock.

    This forum is now being overwhelmed with trolls. It’s gotten worse over time. I expect it to get even worse.

    This isn’t arguable. It will only be verified. In fact it already has.

    Are you hoping for even more infractions?

    And you, as the self appointed forum arbiter certainly let posters know it. Unless you agree with them, of course.
