Keep your political bullshit in DC and out of all other forums

We're seeing an uptick in people randomly throwing out political bullshit in threads in the Lounge. Don't. Report people who do. They'll get booted from the thread for a first offense and more than that if they continue.

The end.

So, everyone gets three thread bans as warnings, and after that will get a vacation in DC (the other forums will be view only). The thread bans and DC vacations will be posted in the transparency thread.

Just like several other rules, there's of course gray area and it doesn't really matter where the line is drawn, because those who can keep politics out of the Lounge will never come close to the line and those who can't will insist on running right up to it.

Generally speaking, we're talking about political opinions or blatantly inserting politics into a thread that isn't even a little bit on topic, or otherwise leaking DC BS into the Lounge or other forums.

Hell, I donated back in the day, it’s been on my mind to donate again, it’s just one thing after another keeps coming up (financially, nothing to do with this place). But, at the end of the day it is his baby and he is going to have to step in on this matter, publicly, he very well may have to the mod team in private but, if so, some public backing wouldn’t hurt them.

And I don’t view the mods as lost or with any kind of agenda (personal biases will always be a factor, it’s how you choose to handle them in your given roles), I just think an official position from the owner of the board would them, and everyone some good. Then we know. Then we can decide if we want to co to us to participate here or not (not a threat on my part, I’m speaking generally).
I also understand this point. I mean, it does cost money to run this board, that I do understand (remember we had server issues and such). I also understand the possible financial risk (if any) if he were to get rid of the DC, and if there were any posters there at DC, that did participate on the donations to improve and keep the place running.

I don't have any issues with the mods at all.

[sarcasm in good jest] Except for Da Face needs to fix his you know what or yelling at BAWAN!!!!! [/sarcasm in good jest]

If you want to ban DC, you are going to have to ban almost all other news and topics other than football in this forum.

Ok, fair enough. Thanks for the answers.
He seems like a decent guy and he doesn't cause trouble over here because he never posts over here. I just think it is odd, that's all.

When are you going to buy me a beer asshole?

I doubt we’ll get the chance, but I’d be happy to buy you a beer if we did.

If you don't like DC, there's a very simple and effective way of avoiding it that doesn't include getting rid of it... all your idea is gonna get you is more politics spilling into the lounge

There are 30 of us here and we can't get along.

If I understood correctly, we have to vote to either ban DC or choose 5 members that post only in DC to be the new mod team.

I'm sure Rainman is crafting a new poll for it. Imma choose the Gaz option

I suggest shutting DC down until after the election. It's out of control, lacks usefulness, and is of no benefit to anyone. A large proportion of CP negativities are rooted there.

Hell, if the Royals can get their own forum, why not DC. Nutjob Planet, or something.

Unfortunately all of the major sport leagues and the media outlets that cover them have pumped politics into sports. Then when those views are opposite politically of the majority of the six states that comprise the main Chiefs fan base you are going to have some friction. Throw in the normal election year bullshit, you going to have some carry over. Then top it all off with COVID bullshit. That basically follows the same political lines which your views of it are.

Those 3 factors are what you are seeing at play. It's basically current climate of the year.

I gave the mods a detailed plan for me and Myslod to be mods in DC. No one can be banned, disciplined etc. without the others approval. Equal treatment. Both Left and Right have to agree or no discipline is handed out. The endgame was to decrease the name calling and vitriol in DC and focus on the issues.

Never heard a word from the mods or AustinChief. Followed up several times. Not even a response. Thats a bad idea. Nothing. It was a missed chance that could have possibly changed the path that led to the extreme rancor and personal insults that are a fact of life in DC these days.

I come in peace but I honestly haven't noticed any politic stuff in all the games I've watched and I've watched nearly all available to me. Maybe I'm not paying close enough attention or I've got a higher tolerance but It's been perfectly fine IMO. Its the political ads at commercial that are the worst.

I for one, love all our friends on the other side of the aisle (no homo)... We have our differences, but at the end of the day we'll all survive and come back here and talk about something..

Well you can blame that on the NFL.

For all their bloviating about being a force for change, they basically stopped calling attention to it after week one.

The players are still wearing names and slogans, as are the end zones but the NFL and networks are basically ignoring at this point.

I think a lot of us knew this would happen though. There was nothing in place to make sure momentum was maintained.
