Should the forum be renamed?

[Ducimus]

I think the name of a place on the outside, ought to reflect what goes on inside. Truth in advertisement, ya know? Since this hasn't been the case as of late, i thought perhaps the forum should undergo a name change. :O:

[Gerald]

Ducimus! What would you suggest that have appeared since time immemorial, :timeout:

[Raptor1]

"Subsim's Politics and Stuff Massacre Extravaganza, Enter at Own Risk"?

[Tchocky]

After the last few days, let's just name it "Boobs & Beats" and be done with it :woot:

[Takeda Shingen]

I voted Angry Ole Goats Who Stare at Polls. I also fully admit to being responsible for some of that angry discussion. :oops:

In seriousness, the political rancor tends to be seasonal. With the US election cycle over for time being, the number of political topics should decline in the coming days.

There is a current anomaly in that trend, I think you know what I mean. :yep:

[Takeda Shingen]

Yes I do. :haha:

In the case of said anomaly, we are in the driver's seat. A topic that no one responds to sinks very quickly on this board. I must be especially disciplined in that regard, as I am a frequent target.

[Castout]

No useless pointless polls? :O:

[Ducimus]

Well, there was a point in this poll, but i (mistakenly?) figured, people would get the veiled "hint" behind it. :O:

edit:
BTW, i voted for all of the above. I thought, "Dumbo's whinery" and Eeyoree's cryier" were some nice touch's though. (and yeah, im just as guilty as the usual suspects for responding to "poll tick" threads at all.

[Platapus]

Yes I do. :haha:

Perhaps we should have a public resolution not to feed the trolls?

If we don't respond, the troll thread quickly goes to page 2 to be forgotten. :know:

We have the technology, we have the power, do we have the resolve? :har:

[frau kaleun]

"E-Peen On Parade" has a nice ring to it.

We do have the 'ignore' feature. I'm just sayin'. :D

Umm if those were gone then what would become of subsim :haha:

Just kiddin around . . .;)

[Castout]

Can't see your post what r u saying? :O:

Where is the ignore button can't find it

[Ducimus]

Think i have about 4 people on ignore. Amazingly enough, thirdman isn't on that list yet. I may have to remedy that. :haha:

[Takeda Shingen]

Where is the ignore button can't find it

Go to the user profile of the person you want to ignore. Once there, there is a user list drop-down box beneath the name. Select 'Add to Ignore List'. This will work for everyone except for moderators and Neal, as they cannot be placed on ignore lists for obvious reasons.

Platapus, I think that is a fine idea. I have been a poor example.

[Platapus]

Can the Ignore button be programmed to be an Opt-In instead of an Opt-Out?

Then I can automatically put everyone on Ignore other than the select people I want to see.

:haha::har::har::har::har:

[frau kaleun]

BTW, has Oprah endorsed one of the poll options yet? I can't vote until I know.

[krashkart]

Official press release from Harpo Studios:

Oprah is very disappoint that there is no option on the poll for "Everyone, look under your seats. You're all going to Veee-gaaas!"

[frau kaleun]

there is no option on the poll for "Everyone, look under your seats. You're all going to Veee-gaaas!"

I blame Obama.

On the other hand I think I'm on Frau's ignore list since she didn't answer:damn:

[TarJak]

I think you missed the obvious Troll Hole name. But WTF eh?:D

[Betonov]

voted none of trhe above, it's too early to make lifechanging decisions such as this

[krashkart]

I voted for Propositions 2, 3, and 4 because O'bammy bashin' might only be good for another two years. :haha:

[jumpy]

I was gonna vote number three... then I realised it didn't say 'Eeyore Carvery' :hmph:

[frau kaleun]

On the other hand I think I'm on Frau's ignore list since she didn't answer:damn:

Nah, you'd have to be a LOT more annoying to rate that particular honor. :O:

[Platapus]

I will vote for "Troll Hole" :yeah::yeah::yeah:

Precisely....better to ignore than inflame :DL

[Kapitan_Phillips]

I vote for "Hide yo kids, Hide yo wife, cause they talkin' bout politics up in here"

[Platapus]

Precisely....better to ignore than inflame :DL

Remember what Master Kan said

Ignore, rather than confront.
confront, rather than inflame.
inflame, rather than brig.
Brig, rather than Keelhaul.
For all posters are precious, nor can any be replaced.

Well some can be replaced. :D

[frau kaleun]

They climbin' in yo' Subsim, snatchin' yo' topics up.

I could think of a few who could be replaced. Heck I can think of a few who HAVE been replaced.

Boobs R Us is an appropriate substitution for GT.
