Title: Jim did the left and right forums go away?
Post by: takncarabizniz on 09 30, 15, 12:02:24:PM
Or were they merged into another forum?

I was looking for some facts that I had posted years ago and couldn't find them.  They were on the things the left said and things the right said forums...or whatever they were called.



Just wondering...

OK OK OK.  I know I said I don't delete things. And you caught me.   I actually forgot that I deleted those two Boards because they had not been used for 3 or 4 years.  I thought nobody used them. They were kinda silly anyways. They were just taking up space, and I figured nobody would miss them.  And I was essentially correct, because after I deleted them I forgot all about them!   I don't even remember when I deleted them.  This year?  Last Year?  Who knows. But you know what,  I should have asked before I deleted an entire board that people put things on.  Lesson learned.  However, those items "Should" still be on the test server at http://www.aesopsretreat.org (http://www.aesopsretreat.org/)

 

btw:  I never saw this post until Pacifica sent it to me today concerning another problem she was experiencing.

I'd like to see the Politics banished to a board of its own and Current events returned to it's intended use.

Jim, just a crazy thought... can you create a Christmas gift room? Where the likes of the worst can be banished for a week or two... to let them learn 'civility', again?


Just a thought. (http://www.aesopsretreat.com/forum/Smileys/classic/wink.gif)

Hey Jim, why do you protect our 2nd Amendment right, when you feel free to take away our 1st Amendment right?

Why are you being so selective in following the Constitution?

davik is a complainer... and besides he doesn't know the 1st amendment only applies to our government!

Because Jim has banned people like byter suggested.

How can you Repocons justify denying someone their freedom of speech, while you defend the 2nd Amendment?

The Double Standard is hypocritical, dishonest and totally loony.

You Cannot pick and choose in the Constitution, it is ALL or Nothing.

Freedom of speech? Stupidity must be your forte... it is Jim's board AND THE 1ST AMENDMENT DOESN'T APPLY HERE. Besides, you and your ilk d do it all the time with you POLITICAL CORRECT speech.

... Cannot pick and choose in the Constitution you adore liberal activists who use the Constitution for toilet paper.

BS wx.

bush tore up the Constitution with his torture, rendition and warrantless wiretaps.

YOU supported bush.

Obama has done NOTHING against the Constitution.

THAT is only in your warped opinion.  You should marry DVD, you two are the same kind of stupid.

Jim says he took down the right and left boards because they were 3 or 4 years old.  But yet he left other boards that are also 3 or 4 years old.  Why is that Jim??

Still want to know why Jim is so selective in his Constitutional beliefs.

You either should agree with ALL the Constitution, or NONE of it.

Follow the Constitution Jim, or get OFF your high horse and get down in the mud.\


Which one you gonna do Jim?

Taking down a database that nobody was using is not depriving your little pansy-ass of free speech. 
But I can demonstrate what that might look like if you ask me nicely...

No but you have banned people for speaking their minds.

Why have you denied people their free speech?

Please tell us why you did that oh mighty Jimbo...  :)

Why are you denying people their Constitutional Rights when you SAY you want to uphold them?

Can you answer THAT for me, pretty please?  ;)

Sorry, I forgot about this topic and have been out of town.

No problem with them being gone, I had just posted some things on those boards for quick access to beat people like hoosier over the head with...I know how they hate facts, LOL

I agree with some of the other posters as well that lesser used boards could probably also be shed.  We use what CE and Daily, TV and Movies,, Pets and a few others...but I rarely go through the whole main page to see what forums are available.

I think keeping the boards trim and fit and less hectic has got to help free up a little time on Jim's end.  He shouldn't need to be here babysitting 24/7.  Nor should he need to worry if boards are taken away due to disuse.  There is little reason to maintain them.

Thank you for getting back to this subject, it seems it took a turn to the weird after some people started responding.

Actually, I banned people for either threatening me (or others) for refusing to stop spamming topics, or for just being an asshole.
(Which is not covered in the Constitution.)

And btw: Free Speech does not include many things, which you will find in the TOS.

As I said, they are still on the other board. But I don't have a way to transfer them back to this on.  Dang!

Dav, if the 2nd amendment was abused to the extent YOU and YOURS abuse the 1st amendment, there might be merit to your argument,,,however......

I'd love to see the 1st subjected to the same level of restrictions and restraint

Yes, I will pull them from there and make a file for them on my end. I had forgot about the old server. 

In reading some of the comments, I have to wonder, do those people realize this is not a public entity, but a privately held one?

Sheesh...

I believe in free speech as much as the next person, but I realize there are boundaries and yes, Jim sometimes has to deal harshly with those who cross those boundaries.
