Rightwingers’ Meltdown Forum

2008-11-17T12:13:21-06:00

Perhaps the admins can create a “Meltdown board” for the frenzied rightwingers to exchange bile, concoct conspiracy theories, tell racist jokes, and otherwise vent for the next four years in response to the Obama electoral landslide that occured on November 4, 2008. It would promote board efficency in that it would free up the forums that cater to National and Louisiana Politics for, well, National and Louisiana political discussions.

Moderation Returns

2008-06-03T17:31:27-06:00

While moderation has been extremely lax/non-exsistent recently I’m here to announce that we will be enforcing all forum’s rules to their entirety.

For reference:

Though we ought to reiterate the forum rules on here, since we’ve had quite a few new members:
1. We do not vouch for the accuracy of information posted. All views expressed are those of the message poster.
2. We do try to remove objectionable messages within a reasonable period of time, which we define as
(a)Insults or threats
(b)Racial slurs (The n word and similar things)
(c)Vulgar or sexually graphic language
(d)Gossip about non-public figures
(e)Senseless threads (usually about non-political things)
(f)Knowingly false information
(g)Invasive of a person?s privacy
(h) Duplicate threads
(i) Wishing harm/violence to someone
(j) Posting entire articles or not providing link - When posting outside stories/articles, please “tease” these articles by posting no more than four paragraphs and linking the URL instead of copying the entire article: “teasing” make the thread easier to read and helps us avoid potential copyright issues.
(k) Calling out moderator - Our moderators are volunteers and moderating is not a perfect science. They are continually encouraged to use their best judgment in editing and/or deleting posts/accounts. Calling them out publicly is inappropriate - you may send them a private message if you have questions/concerns.
(l) Spam - these will be deleted and the account of the user posting the ad will be banned at the discretion of the moderator.
(m) Troll-like behavior
4. For “objectionable messages”, we reserve the right to edit and/or delete at the discretion of the moderator - a person caught violating one of these rules will, at the discretion of the moderator, receive a warning and/or a suspension of a member’s account. We strive at PoliticsLa to be courteous and respectful to each other while respecting the fact that people can have differing opinions.

If you violate these rules your post will be deleted. If you continue to violate these rules you will be banned.
No one wants to visit an offensive website or an abusive one.

Why do my posts disappear?

2008-04-12T11:56:45-06:00

Please, someone help me out with this. Sometimes I have to think awhile, get up and tend to a household chore, etc.-then come back and finish my post. If it takes several minutes to finish the post it disappears. I don’t log off. My post just goes away and a blank posting area comes up as if I had never typed a word. This is maddening. After I have spent some time composing a thoughtful post, for it to just go away is very frustrating. Why is it anyone’s business how long it takes me to compose a post? I never type overly long compositions so I don’t think length is the problem. It appears that I just take too long to finish.
