I control my viewing here. I put trolls on ignore, and I just don’t open threads that are not of interest, or that are started by trolls.

For the third fooking time,
My request is not about trolls. It is not about content. It is not about positions, party affiliation, or opinions.
I just want to have Political threads in a designated area just as so many other topical areas are. If we can separate Savage from Winchester collectors and ARs from military rifles in their own forums, then we ought to be able to have a separate forum for politics. That's all I ask. Exactly why I spend a lot less time here now. Civility is the exception here. FWIW, the moderators at Rokslide will not allow any of that crap. Talk hunting and shooting all you want. Not politics. There are times I appreciate the politics here, but most of the time it’s useless.

Leave it where it is. Everything hunting has been politicized since at least the 1960s, same as it is for guns. The Second Amendment forum here gets almost no traffic, but the fact is, even if you're a benevolent Fudd, you still need to know what's going on. Leave the fire, the fire. The real trolls, well, we know who they are and they're in that context, as the First Amendment intended.

If we can separate Savage from Winchester collectors and ARs from military rifles in their own forums, then we ought to be able to have a separate forum for politics. That's all I ask. It is often difficult to get people to listen to what one is saying. They instantly read something else into it and fly off the handle. I agree with Rocky that the political threads really clog things up.
Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.

At least consider setting up a Politics and Law forum. The 'Fire is being overwhelmed by such stuff.
I know it would mean extra work to monitor and move posts from here to there (as they occur in future, no sense going back in time) but it would return this forum to a much more enjoyable place. Novel idea...... https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbt...w-forum-everything-politics#Post12994629

Or maybe don't go to the Hunter's Campfire during the two years before or after a presidential election? LOL LOL
If anything here is stressing you out, it's time for a break or something.

You could call it the "Troll Magnet Forum"
Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.

I'm with Rocky - this is getting out of hand.

. If we can separate Savage from Winchester collectors and ARs from military rifles in their own forums, then we ought to be able to have a separate forum for politics.. and another for conspiracy theories.

I know it would mean extra work to monitor and move posts from here to there (as they occur in future, no sense going back in time) but it would return this forum to a much more enjoyable place. I think that's a good idea. The contentious topics like politics and religion might be better off in their own "battlegrounds", just so the more general posts don't get squeezed out.
Whatever you said...everyone knows you are a lying jerk. That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied. Well?
