editor completely loses the plot and threatens bigfish with a ban for ignoring him

Your last couple of posts show why your discourse is so valued around here.

Go ahead, keep copying my posts. If your head wasn't so fucked up by some bizarro drug concoction, you'd realize how doltish you're making yourself look.

Bizarro drug concoction? wtf? :D


Yes kids keep an eye out for those dope fiends :rolleyes:

yes ban any thread that may question the real motives and actions of our ruling elite, that way this community, it's image and the world in general can positively shine with conformity.

but don't conspiracy theories sometimes detract from the above by being the province of people who sound like they're being nutty for the sake of it.

Plus they are usually propounded more by far-right neonazi nuts who blither on about the "zionist order of government" and whatever than anyone else...

Yeah, I've never banned any right-wing trolls.

Oh, hold on.


and you know thats not what I'm saying.

e.g. pbman uses all sorts of nutty links as credible sources, do I hear people crying out that he is making this site a laughing stock? and all blinkered bushbacking threads be banned?

Nope.
 
If people post ridiculous claims they get flamed, I don't see why people need to make such a song and dance about it.

and may interested to know your 'value' as a poster is not directly proportional to how many posts you can write

Because his links are comprehensively slagged off, and nobody's in danger of thinking that's what U75 is about, and he knows when to stop.
 
and some of DrJ's more extreme ideas are also as enthusiastically slated as well.

I don't see how out of the thousands of posters there are the actions of one DrJ and one bigfish are really going to effect 'what Urban75 is about' whatever that maybe.

You say he knows when to stop but he sure doesn't like giving up

But you do not understand. There is a conspiracy of conspiracists attempting to take over this site . :D

In my humble opinion, the site is well run, and is disparaged only by bushbots who likely find it hard to find a bb home anywhere, and who are prone to complain chronically about a host of problems mostly imagined in their own fevered brains.

I suppose if you create a site and watch it grow, it irks to watch someone casually take a shit on it and then walk away, like some stray dog in the neighborhood despoiling everybody's lawn

Well i don't see any "bushbots" disparing the site.

AT all.

I certanetly don't remmber ever doing so.

I think the boards are will run, its one of the reasons i stay, i dislike poorly run sites, and thats true of right or left wing sites.
 
People shouldn't be banned for a having a contidictory opinion on a subject.

On many sites the general population of this site would be considered nut jobs and conspiricy theroists for opinoions on the gov, the war or just for reading a micheal moore book.

people in my opinion should only be banned for being abusive or spamming.

if you choose to let people have freedom of speeach then you have to listen to some idiotic things, thats the way it works and this is a better site beacuse of that.

If you don't like what is said you have the choice to attempt to engage in debate(might not happen) chastise them(good plan!!!!) or just simply ignore them or ignore what they are saying.

and that is my point, while the right-wingers on here get left alone the leftwing nutjobs carry the can
Truth is, I don't recall any 'right wing' regulars starting threads with personally offensive titles like this one.

Bigfish has been warned because of his persistent refusal to engage with the debate, ignoring pertinent questions while posting up page fulls of one way rhetoric.

He's also caused a lot of disruption in the past, harassing and insulting other mods while pursuing his tedious agenda.

Tell me why I should continue to put up with his antics and his disruptive style and have to endure insulting threads like this from his conspiracy-tastic chum?
 
Ok - here's the jury's verdict.

Dr Jazz should be awarded contemptuous damages, DoUsAFavour is barred from the Court Room. Editor's expense claim for lunchtime drinks is thrown out, Johnny Cannuck should put his money where his mouth is and sign up to the poker next sunday.

...My evidence for some kind of conspiracy is the forged documents pertaining to the alleged importation of uranium from Niger to Iraq - documents the UK government used as part of it's justification for going to war which the UN declared to be forgeries. Documents do not forge themselves, someone somewhere forged these documents, and I find it hard to believe they just did it for a laugh. The documents were forged and distributed by someone with a purpose, and unless this was done by one individual acting alone, this alone is proof of some level of conspiracy...
The documents were apparently forged by someone in Niger and passed first to the Italian equivalent of MI6, then on the UK and on to the US. Why would someone forge documents? Money of course! If you know that the CIA are looking around and asking for evidence of Iraqi nuclear programmes, and that they are suspicious of an Iraqi delegation that visited Niger, it is not very hard to see that there is money to be made from knocking up a dodgey copy of a document that supposedly shows them trying to buy yellow cake.

You must realise that if it was MI6 or the CIA who forged the document they would have done a *far* better job than the piece of crap that was kocked up by someone who could hardly spell, and who didnt't even get the dates and names right. About the only thing that looked authentic was that someone had had access to the Niger headed notepaper/fax paper and some of the stamps etc. It has "African bureaucrat on the make" (by the way - I do know what Niger is like since I have been there and had experience of bureacrats there).

Edit: And as for bigfish - good riddance to the vile-mouthed idiot.

Why would anyone think U75 was a 'conspiracy' site?
There's threads about all sorts every day aint there? And it's not as though there aren't plenty of posters refuting the so called 'bonkers tin foil hat brigade' including the Editor and fair enough (whatever your viewpoint) IMO.
But it didn't half start off nastily by the anti 'conspiracists' including cowardly fucks who stick the boot in after the fact. The mods and the Ed want to pay a bit more attention to these wankers IMO.
Names? I can't fucking remember them right !
:D

No idea what you're on about, I'm afraid,

And much as I appreciate receiving tips about how we should run these boards, I'd suggest that there's a lot more work involved than you think.

But I think we do a pretty damn fine job of it, all things considered - there aren't many high profile boards whose editor would tolerate a thread with a full on abusive title like this one, for example.
 
Personally, after what some of them have said about the majority of u75ers who don't subscribe to their loony conspiracy theories (sycophants, media dupes etc etc), I wonder how some of the conspiracy theory brigade have the nerve to carry on posting here. :confused:
 
I wouldn't at all be surprised how much work is involved. I praise you often enough.
I wasn't offering you any tips.
Lordy.

Yes you were were. You were telling us that we should "pay a bit more attention" to people you perceive as 'wankers'.

I'm pointing out that running these boards is more or less a full time job for me and I haven't got time to selectively watch individuals at your behest.

Just to set my self in front of the guns - surely this particular forum is about discussing that very thing?

What you on about ?
What box ?
What others?
You're bonkers you! ;-)

You don't have to use cliches to post here... but it flippin' well helps.

You know all about the others. How can you forget the struggling and biting? It's all so easy for you :mad: You didn't have to look them in the eyes :(
