    The idea behind topics, especially on a board not heavily trafficked, is to keep them condensed and compartmentalized to allow for efficiency in reading and response.

    Every single page since I began peeking in on this side has, on average, 4-5 threads with zero reply per page.   I'm sure that number has gone up in the past year.    That would indicate content fatigue.  

    In short, if somebody posts multiple threads and half of them have no response or even funnier, the OP is the  only one to respond - then yes, that would be spam.

    Well there are reasons for that I guess. A post condemning Hillary or Obama might get a response from somebody who actually loved Hillary or Obama and I'm not sure we have any of those here. So it's hard to work up a big argument. I mean we have some people that really dislike the Democrats and some that really dislike the Republicans but a lot of the posts we are probably on the same page. Even if we don't want to admit it. Beyond that a rational and reasonable argument for conversation isn't as much fun so there's that.

    That would only work to further serve my point.  If you're posting condemning Hillary and, to my knowledge nobody here voter for her,  then you're basically pissing into the wind over and over and over...

    The equivalent would be me posting a bunch of football related threads on topics with only very minor differences and then having a full page of articles go un-read or unreplied.   I don't post topics very often.  Once every few months at best, because I like to generate stimulating conversation.      Unless people just enjoy talking to themselves in their own head?

    No doubt somebody here is going to vote for Joe Biden. That might be more fun.

    OK so here's what I will do I will private message you everything before I post to the board to get your approval, you can be the editor and chief and decide what makes it to the forum.

    or that those threads are so embarrassing to the left that responding is out of the question for you folks.. You'd rather they slid off to oblivion

    Again, by who's estimation? Yours? I don't respond to many of those threads because there is no need. They are so damning to the left that you guys can muster no response. Sometimes the truth needs no response

    Who the fuck is "you guys"? 

    And the very definition of "forum".

    https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/forum

    So to post something that isn't meant to advance discourse is, by definition of how a forum is constructed, inherently spam.   Especially when done repeatedly.  Woody does it as do other characters here.

    It's possible to call bullshit out as it presents itself and not be a "leftist".

    Off topic, if anybody is driving tonight be extra careful.  Ton of state boys out tonight just looking to hand out tickets or worse.  Stay safe.

    Well I suppose it's possible to spam The Board WITH politically related Perez posts no? We could probably use the strict definition of spam as unwanted shotgun advertising but would you consider 30 posts in one day featuring the same thing, perhaps photoshopped Michelle Obama pictures with a penis, spam?

    1.) I said mine was political I didn't mention woody you did...

    2.) I don't have to do what you want the Republicans are in charge and the USA is still a free country...that will change if the Dems get back in sometime after 2024!

    3.) I don't see you replying to woody's posts so there must not be very much content there.

    Point taken, but if there's to be action (or inaction) taken on excessive thread posting or relocation/deletion of threads as some posters are proposing, it'd be nice to have more concrete definitions of what constitutes political content and what constitutes spamming by the mods. Also, if such actions are taking in the future, I'm sure that the measures would be applied equally to all members here, regardless of which side of the political isle they fall on or if the mods like the posters or not, no?

    You know me well enough to know that there's not going to be any action taken even if somebody calls something spam. I know what spam is. And if I'm not going to bitch at any of the other guys for posting a mess of posts in a row why would I bitch at the woodpecker? (even if his were all primarily the same crap)  The only action I ever took was deleting some of his boyfriends porn. I didn't even give him warning points just clean them off.

    1) No, you indirectly did

    2) I know gay people that would say you're talking like a faggot

    3) Then again, seems like nobody replies much to yours.  You rival Cal in the amount of empty threads.
