    A suggestion regarding tPF threads

    When the moonbats start one, do not post in it. They've obviously found a loophole in the rules that allows them to bait-and-ban anyone who they disagree with. They can circle-jerk themselves into oblivion while we keep substantive threads alive.

    As far as I understand the mods can override TB requests. One shouldn't be TBed just for disagreement. Only for violation of existing rules but the OP can set the bar lower. --Not a mod anymore so can't say what the SOP is nowadays.

    I judge people on actions, not words. There has been a particular member who is abusing the situation, imo. I won't post in any thread with a tPF designation. Selective censorship is not something I will promote with my presence.

    Yes he has. No question about it. OGIS made a mockery of this feature and now this member is too.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    Just don't post in them, regardless of who starts them. Problem solved.

    They are being used for a "safe space" one person will troll whenever he wants but makes most of his threads TPF.

    A great example of "can dish it, but not take it"

    Exactly, but a personal bias has to be ignored to do that.

    Just another example of how too much bureaucracy and regulation can be manipulated/abused by the unscrupulous. The tPF threads do not even need to exist.

    Abuse should be reported. Otherwise mods may not notice. I guess this "town hall" ( ) accomplishes that.
