    @bbedward Thanks I actually found settings all by myself. Not bad for 79+ LOL!

    @syd Yep, just click on your own name and scroll down to settings.

  • Hi, yes it's me The Hoorta. Glad that BB was able to save the board. In my old age I wasn't able to remember my password, (or the new software didn't recognize it) and "Reset Password" wasn't working yesterday. Didn't want to post using my Google account- which uses your real name. That function is working now.
    I wrote this yesterday, it was saved, a lot has happened in the last 12-18 hours, so I'll modify it a bit.
    I have a very strong opinion on why the Poli Board should have died. It was ONLY one sided political opinion. (I think BB echoed that opinion) And differing POVs were unrelentingly attacked. I tried to Moderate some of it, and basically caught hell for trying to do so. Big reason why I essentially left the board for months\years- because I didn't need to see the unmoderated crap that was going on there. So IMHO if you want to talk right wing politics- there's plenty of Forums out there that will let you post away to your hearts content.
    I see that BB has allowed a new News and politics forum. I'm willing to give it a chance, but if it reverts into it's former right wing echo chamber with a load of ad hominum attacks regarding differing POVs- I'll be the first to say SHUT IT DOWN!!

  • I think it’s high time I start joining in on the fun of the Poliboard.

    I mean, why let all the pedophile supporters have all the fun, right boys? πŸ˜‰

    Welcome back Larry! If grown men and Cal are still worshipping Donald Trump on that board - it should help you understand just how terrifying the little 150 lb Hunter Biden must have been to that group.

    The absolute funniest part of this whole situation is that dissenting opinions on THAT board were often deleted off it by the same guy who used to cry to Stan on a regular basis and when I showed up on it almost immediately Steve threatened to ban me from the board entirely 🀣 Now there are rules and they are melting down.

    Every middle finger we receive over this literally makes me warm and fuzzy inside. hahahahahahahahahahahaha

  • @bbedward thanks for keeping the board going man, loving the layout!


  • Respect

  • Awesome work and thanks for keeping the community alive. Can you put a Paypal or Buy me a coffee link so members can make contributions?

    I put a ko-fi donate button that routes to PayPal from the beginning. Its in the header and the sidebar bottom on the home page.

    Don't expect anything, will never put ads or trackers here, and will never try to monetize the platform in any way. I do have costs associated (my servers, cloud flares email platform, cloud flare R2 storage, domain renewals) - so donations are appreciated but I don't expect them or demand them and I don't wanna spam popups asking for them.

    What we have now is much cheaper than the previous board in reality, the significant cost would be my time which I'm not counting obviously since I'm willing to spend the time on this anyway.

  • Maybe invite me to a tailgate or give me an extra ticket to a game that's before November. Id join, but otherwise I don't care.

    One of the main reason I care about this place is my interactions with @tour2ma . I was fresh out of college, we placed a bet for some beer, I don't remember who won but I sent some Christmas ale to Texas and he sent some beer to me from his local Texas town.

    The fact was it didn't matter who won the bet, we both just sent each other local beer samplers anyway, was awesome to me. I have a lot of interactions with people in real life and online across numerous forums (thousands of people and communities like this one to cryptocurrency to Linux communities). Nothing is more memorable to me than the interactions I've had here. I wish I could have talked to tour more in his battle with cancer, but nonetheless I'm grateful for the interactions I had with him while I was here.

    Go browns, and guardians, and cavs

    Tour was one of my favorite people here too. His interest in O-line blocking schemes really spurned my own interest and l started really paying attention to the nuts and bolts involved. I no longer have a DVR, but when l did l would spend quite a bit of time rewinding and slo-moing plays to watch everything unfold.

    He was a gem of a human being too. I’m not sure l ever understood the significance of his handle though: Tour2ma. Anyone know?


  • I just discovered l have mod powers? Thanks bb. I merged a couple threads. I’ll try to be discerning but there may be some trial and error as l figure things out.
