Warning for Political Posters

[Moderator]

One of the reasons the original political forum was discontinued was the spillover of acrimonious posts into main forum discussions. In the intervening months, there were numerous threads and posts asking for the return of the political forum. To concerns about political comments and attitudes entering main board discussions, many assured us that wouldn't happen. The use of "Guest" as the ID for all participants was an attempt to ward off spillover to the main section by keeping participants anonymous. Unfortunately, an app not supported by TOTV revealed posters actual ID increasing member on member hostility.

We are now seeing significant incidences of posters bringing their hostility toward other members into main board threads through direct responses and comments that may outwardly appear innocuous but are intended to antagonize. This must stop NOW.

The existence of the political forum and posting privileges may be at risk if this continues.

I for one have gotten sick and tired of all the nasty posts on the Political Forum. I almost never go there anymore.

I'd really love to have rational discussions about differences in policies and philosophies, but that has become impossible because of a small number of people whose only objective seems to be to insult and annoy people.

Some people really need to get something else in their lives. I have really begun to feel sorry for them. They are evidently in so much emotional pain that they feel the need to do this on a regular basis.

if it gets cleaned up and these few are denied privileges, maybe we can get back to having a serious political forum.

Let's do it... Can't you ignore them?

This is a true BASTION of FREE SPEECH. Do NOT let it fall.

You know...if we had a "men only" forum...ALL this stupid bickering would stop. It's the women causing these problems.

Give us men our own forum...they have theirs. They would complain about us "polluting" "their area", their "safe space". Why should we allow their bickering to ruin our space?

[affald]

Possible solutions...

-Make totv compatible with tapatalk, possibly with a software upgrade to totv.

-Allow more free speech. Maybe even penalties for unwarranted complaints by these thing skinned wackadoodles that constantly report to mod. It must be very time consuming for mods when one poster complains so often.

-Other boards require a minimum of 500 or 1000 posts before allowing posts in the off topic or political forums. Everyone would be exposed and only long timers could post, keeping it more civil. It would also preserve the great image of the villages and not turn off newbies. Friends from up north have said they have a different opinion of the villages after reading the political forum. The political forum has a small percentage of posters, but unfortunately presents a bad Village image.


Thank goodness for the unmoderated political forum, the only place for free speech without moderation.

Of the persons I have polled, no one has seen this spillover hostility, anyone else?

The mod is not talking about the nasty political forum, but spillover of posts into the general forum of "innocuous" posts but are intended to antagonize.

Maybe the problem is the one complaining about in·noc·u·ous posts. Lol

You don't have to guess and you don't need Tapatalk to know who the poster is. Just click quote and scroll down the page.

I don't comment much in the main board, it seems like groundhog day...dog crap thread, golf cart path thread, Comcast charging too much thread...

I am not a sexist but maybe a men's forum would be a good idea, less drama sounds good for me.

Next question is how are we going to decide what is a man?

Show real names or at least familiar screen names. I show mine. If you don't want to, then that shows you might be an anonymous bully. I understand (kind of) the feeling of fear that a person might have of their information being hacked, but I also say that being anonymous seems to escalate the bullying on the part of some people. NOT you Rubicon, or you Polar Bear, or you Yvonne, or a number of posters who are outspoken but fair and don't use demeaning and hateful posts to stir the pot. Grace Gantner

P.S. I am guilty of getting angry on here but some people always make their point without rancor and hateful rhetoric. I so admire them.

Yes. Thanks for that. I will put my worst nemesis on the Ignore List yet again and hope people will alert me if I need to go to the Moderator again about this poster who will remain on the Ignore List. I believe pretty much any regular Poster on the Political Forum knows who I have been having rather troublesome problems with for the past six weeks or so. And many of the people on the regular board probably also know of whom I speak. Calling someone a dork and a retard (directed at me) should give a clue to whom I complained about whose attacks on me are anything but innocuous. They may look that way to someone who knows not know my back story but this man or woman seems to and continues to make personal attacks on me.

And the Ignore List seems to make Political Forum posts as well out of my sight. I would have booted this person a long time ago from Talk of the Villages if I had any control over the matter.

Looks like the Ignore List still works on the Political Forum. :)

This is exactly the drama this forum could do without. This individual acts like a punching bag for aggresive posters and then whines about the abuse he receives.

I would use a different adjective than "aggressive" here. There are posters on the Political Forum who are racist, mean-spirited, women-hating and just plain dishonest.

And any "abuse" should not be acceptable.

I do point these traits out as any decent person should. And other actual Christians on here do the same. Trump has brought out the worst in many people and he has polluted political discourse by making personal attacks acceptable rather than talking about the actual policies and the like. These attacks are irrelevant and illogical for the most part but they did work for Donald Trump.

I think any decent person knows who on the Political Forum should be banned and who should be able to stay. There are fair minded Republicans, Independents as well as Democrats on Talk of the Villages.

Perhaps things might be different if he were not so stupid as to make personal attacks against Trump supporters and expect people not to say bad things back at him, all while telling every retarded detail of his life on totv and all over the Internet. Then if some innocuous remark is made that resembles his life he runs to the mod and plays the wackadoodle, I am a protected class card.

Stay the fu(k out of the political forum if you can't take the heat.

Keep your wackadoodle ass in the regular forum and start a million threads which are usually not responded too. You are the king of one post threads.

Are you proud your mommy is still going to "my child is a retard support group."

Don't throw stones when you are made of defective glass.

Back on the Ignore List. I just wanted to make a note and a record of the kind of garbage contributed by Affald. That is the last post of this rotten person I am going to look at. And if anyone finds this innocuous they should look at a dictionary. The person is just plain nasty. Affald (probably a he) contributes bile and hatred on here.

Now affald goes back on Ignore List and I hope the Moderator is reading this Thread to see that this man has a great deal of animosity towards me and just about every post directed at me by him or her has a bad intent. I have no idea who affald is. That is the problem. If this person accepted responsibility for his or her posts that would be great. I would love for his neighbors to see what he/she really thinks about stuff.

And he had no idea who you were until you went and announced your name Jon.

You seem to have a compulsive desire to get your name on something. While that might suit you, it might not suit others. Imagine someone on here owns a retail or service type business, their opinion might alienate customers that do not share the same opinion. Let's make that more understandable for you...pretend you own a pet watching business, 75% of villagers are Republican and many of them own pets, how many potential customers would your anti Trump TMZ quality posts offend? Your business could suffer if they do not share your opinion. People do not need to sign thier real names to posts on here...I hope you can grasp that point.

You actually believe that? Any idiot can find my name just by Googling Taltarzac725.

And I have spoken to over one hundred rather nice Republicans here in the Villages who would not care about whom I voted for or much of anything else that is of a personal nature.

It is the rather hatred spreading posters who should fear having their real names made accessible to anyone who can Google. I mean the racists, women-hating, bile delivering, and usually extremely dishonest posters.

Dishonest and bile delivering are good adjectives.

I am not aware of any group of people so ....

......Devoid of what is actually happening in their country, and enchanted with web sites who deliberately withhold context and facts. and adverse to even discuss what is happening.

.....Unaware of WHO is lying to them and why.

.....visit this site for one purpose. Not discussion but the vilification of the USA and any selected groups that do not walk the line as they feel they should.

......hypocritical as to their feelings on honesty and character.

We had two of the worst candidates ever for our Presidency....two of the absolute worst, and in my heart, I think most know that....YET they still go their corners and instead of voicing desire for morals and honesty, they will defend one or the other...NEITHER CANDIDATE deserved to be a candidate for anything. We are digging a hole based on untruths and lying...we are are accepting of bizarre dishonest behavior, and that will come back to haunt us all....conservative, liberal, progressive, alt right....whatever. While dishonesty, etc might serve your immediate need it will being us down.

Then to come on any forum allowed for political discussion and use it NOT for that purpose but to disseminate hate for other americans, and now hearing it is even being taken to the main board is simply more than disappointing

Well it appears you are the only one that knows a lie on here...

We would be happy to discuss things with you, but almost every post of yours is a book long...and you try to force us to read what you have decided we must read. You can't just copy and paste a couple sentences and then provide a link if we are interested in reading more...it is paragraph after paragraph followed up with paragraphs of old man jibberish...what man today says "I know in my heart"?

I think one candidate, Trump, was a dandy of a candidate (old man talk for you there). I liked his message of closing our borders, repealing Obammacare, and quit supporting the lazy. If you don't like that stuff, don't waste your vote again on an independent 4 years from now!

I do agree with your sentiment that disagreements in here have no place on the general forums.

Most of my posts are long. Reason is I read a number of articles, etc on any issue, and try to share with other posters. I force nobody to do anything, by the way..however,

As you also know, I check what people say and check their links. So many posters on here read the most bizarre website, with reputations, on both "sides" as fake and/or Russian backed. Nobody should, or should be allowed to utilize false, made up information.

What is the sense of any forum if the information being "shared" is flat out false ?

Nobody has to read my posts...but be assured those posts have been researched factually, and be assured I will call out thOne who lie, support lying. It is one thing to have different opinions....it is totally different to lie or promulgate lies.

Sorry if it bores you. I have tried hard to begin threads based on what is actually happening in the world which is what I expect.

It is frustrating to try to do that and be met with a name calling or people who find factual posting to be boring.

By the way, it takes time, reading and checking to see lies, except honestly on here. So many use sites like Breitbart, Gateway Pundit, Zero Hedge or similar sites which are not only based on lies, they build on them

The President who loves these conspiracy theory sites is now on the defensive because of buying into one of those theories. If we REALLY want America to be great, it better be based on TRUTH

[dirtbanker]

I guess you missed the simple sarcastic statement "it seems you are the only one that can tell a lie on here". Let me expand on that...I don't care how much reading you have done, that does not give you the power to decide what is the "truth", as your sources could be liers too. So no need to post paragraph after paragraph to make a point, is there...

No, I understand what you said, but also checked to see who is making the charge,

When I see it is you...who, if I am correct never offers anything to substantiate any claim, then I know it is another troll posting.

Seriously, if I recognize lying, I give backup to insure it is not biased but based on multiple sources.

I realize that is a lot for you to comprehend, but it is simple. Don't lie, and if you recognize made up stuff which is easy on here, or people make statements, you KNOW is not true, then research and call them on it.

Your childish little barbs do not count as anything, and are very seldom if ever based on factual information, so not sure why you care.

[blueash]

The design of the website fails to protect the screen name of the "guest" All you have to do is click on the green quote button, then scroll down and all of the names are listed with their posts. If the moderator could remove that feature then some degree of anonymity would be retained.

I hope that the Moderator is taking notes about posts by Affald. He is on my Ignore List which covers the Political Forum but that post sure looks like one of his vile personal attacks which has little connection with the facts.

You can also probably thank affald for this thread as he/she started attacking me on two other threads on the Regular Section-- one in movies and one on Just for Fun yesterday and this morning. The Moderator called him/her childish and I know 12 year olds with more maturity, decency, and class than affald when judging from his or her various slurs on me. I do not think I know this person but I would be ashamed to even acknowledge it.

Donald Trump sure set the tone though with his campaign and I hope he will be on his way out soon.

This is getting a little out of hand and definitely annoying, you are a 50 something year old man acting like a 12 year old child. Man Up!

Why are you relying on the moderator to take notes?

I mean really, why do you respond and put yourself in these situations...codependency and the human punching bag syndrome (due to an obvious lack of self confidence).

Trump had nothing to do with this. Trump has denounced violence and bigotry numerous times...you want Trump out for self serving reasons, I suspect it is because Trump wants the US to stop supporting the lazy.

You on the other hand have everything to do with this. Go back thru your catalogued posts and reflect on your weird comments that brought this attention to you...now decide if you want that attention because all you have to do is keep posting child like comments and I don't care if it is Affald, or any person like Affald, they will call you out for it.

dirtbag again. He also had made repeated attacks on me. I am acting like the 12 year old? I post intelligent well researched posts. There is a small group on here who enjoy posting personal attacks on people often with little or no connection to the facts. These are meant to upset their targets and have little relevance to anything. That was Donald Trump's tactic in his campaign and even now with attacks on President Obama that have little evidence if any at all.

The Moderator should be doing his or her job and removing posters who make these kind of personal attacks especially if they are showing up on non Political Forum threads such as affald has been doing of late.

And there are limits to what should be even posted on the Political Board and affald has crossed that line IMHO with that statement that my parents hate me. That is way beyond decency, etiquette, proper social discourse or anything else. For anything moderated, that should be grounds to suspend his or her posting privileges indefinitely.

He/she should be off of Talk of the Villages permanently.

One of the reasons the original political forum was discontinued was the spillover of acrimonious posts into main forum discussions. In the intervening months, there were numerous threads and posts asking for the return of the political forum. To concerns about political comments and attitudes entering main board discussions, many assured us that wouldn't happen. The use of "Guest" as the ID for all participants was an attempt to ward off spillover to the main section by keeping participants anonymous. Unfortunately, an app not supported by TOTV revealed posters actual ID increasing member on member hostility.

We are now seeing significant incidences of posters bringing their hostility toward other members into main board threads through direct responses and comments that may outwardly appear innocuous but are intended to antagonize. This must stop NOW.

The existence of the political forum and posting privileges may be at risk if this continues.

Thank you. :ho:

One would think that having an entire forum whereby a person could spew all the hatred/racism/bigotry/misogyny/etc. they want, without moderation, would be enough...without them being so obsessed that they feel compelled to drag their feces into the main forum. :ohdear:

On the other hand, people with no self-control are the core Trump supporters...so I guess it's really not all that surprising. :shrug:

[Taltarzac725]

Thank you. :ho:

One would think that having an entire forum whereby a person could spew all the hatred/racism/bigotry/misogyny/etc. they want, without moderation, would be enough...without them being so obsessed that they feel compelled to drag their feces into the main forum. :ohdear:

On the other hand, people with no self-control are the core Trump supporters...so I guess it's really not all that surprising. :shrug:

"Drag their feces...." Very well put.

[affald]

I hope that the Moderator is taking notes about posts by Affald. He is on my Ignore List which covers the Political Forum but that post sure looks like one of his vile personal attacks which has little connection with the facts.

You can also probably thank affald for this thread as he/she started attacking me on two other threads on the Regular Section-- one in movies and one on Just for Fun yesterday and this morning. The Moderator called him/her childish and I know 12 year olds with more maturity, decency, and class than affald when judging from his or her various slurs on me. I do not think I know this person but I would be ashamed to even acknowledge it.

Donald Trump sure set the tone though with his campaign and I hope he will be on his way out soon.
Just in case they missed the attacks...

Two Attacks in joke forum...

One post...

Other post..

I know a 48 year old still living with his parents in the villages.
One day a friend asked, "Why aren't you married? Can't you find a woman who will be a good wife?"
He replied, "Actually, I've found many women I wanted to marry, but when I bring them home to meet my parents, my mother doesn't like them."
His friend thinks for a moment and says, "I've got the perfect solution, just find a girl who's just like your mother."
A few months later they meet again and his friend says, "Did you find the perfect girl? Did your mother like her?"
With a frown on his face, he answers, "Yes, I found the perfect girl. She was just like my mother. You were right, my mother liked her very much."
The friend said, "Then what's the problem?"
He replied, "My father doesn't like her."

[affald]

No reference was made on those posts to Tal or to wackadoodle, yet, he got the mod to delete them literally in seconds!

People complain of slow responses by the mods! He complained and they deleted in SECONDS.

He must have them on speed dial on a replica of the bat phone he keeps on the side of his batmobile bed.

So you’re proud that you have so little self-control, that you've instigated the first moderator post in the Political Forum (that I can recall)...and have put the entire forum at risk of being shut down? :ohdear:

That takes scumminess...to a whole new low.

Now where are those fake-Christians and self-appointed purveyors of "wholesomeness," RubiTHECon and Graceless to try and prove that they're not flaming hypocrites...that most know they are? :oops:

Hiding of course. :ho:

These were very upsetting posts by affald on the regular section of Talk of the Villages mainly because of who was posting them and why. Trolling in other words by putting in posts he/she knew would anger me quite a bit or why would he/she be doing this?
I do not know this creep personally as far as I know.

And it took a while for them to disappear. The Moderator told affald to stop bullying me or he/she would have his privileges revoked. The Moderator also said that affald's posts were childish which they are.

I do hope people will complain about affald if he/she continues this kind of behavior on the regular boards. I do believe he/she hurts the image of the Villages with this kind of hate-- funny as it seems to some. It is hardly amusing if you are on the receiving end.

He (and a couple of others) have decided you are an easy mark, so they simply do what they have always done...try to bully others by being a TROLL.

Just keep in mind, that you're living in their heads rent free and they are expressing their own insecurities...in the only way they know how.

By simply continuing to post...YOU WIN. :thumbup:

What does posting mean sh!t in the "regular" forums have to do with the political forum? If she broke the rules there...summarily execute her. THERE is where the problem occurred...take care of it there. Not in here.

They STARTED hating each other here? So? When THEY took it outside is when THEY broke the "rules".

I understand the announcement but not the "solution". The solution is taking care of a problem OUTSIDE this forum...the way it would be taken care of without this forum. I'm sure people who have never come here get in arguments too...are they dealt with by shutting down the entire forum they argue in? Or worse...another forum...because the argument started there?

Don Baldwin. Affald took it to the Regular Posts. I only quoted what he wrote and then reported it to the Moderator. I want as little contact with affald as possible. I usually put him on my Ignore List but do check what he has posted if I suspect he is giving me a reason to go to the Moderator. And affald is very probably a man as I am.



And affald certainly broke the rules by taking the hatred he has against me to the Just for Fun and Talk of the Movies sections yesterday and the night before.

Someone that posts this is someone I want nothing to do with--

My point is...it happened out there...not in here.

The warning is just...the "solution" is not. IMO of course.

Just ignore her and be done with it. What do YOU care what some idiot says?

You've seen what has been said about me...for speaking the truth...I don't care what they say about me...they mean nothing to me past the fact that I want to inform them...open their eyes...see the propaganda...the lies...the corruption.

You're old enough where you shouldn't worry so much about others thoughts. Not everyone is going to like you. Not everyone is reasonable. Not everyone is "informed". That's people.

If they're breaking the "rules of decorum" in the general forums...let the moderators deal with it there. That's all I'm saying. Don't use it as an excuse to close this forum. I know a LOT of people complain about it, what's said here...but it NEEDS saying!

Where else will you hear the FACT that minorities ARE THE MAJORITY of children below the age of 7? Where else will you hear that whites are no longer the majority...that we're now 49% of the population?

Nowhere. Don't ask for the political forum to be closed. Ask to have it made a "men only" refuge...a "safe space" for US to talk freely without having to temper it because the women and children may be listening.

The WOMEN are causing/instigating the trouble. ONLY women care what words you use. Only women get outraged over a differing opinion. Women are too emotional to discuss some subjects rationally/logically. It's best for all that they stay away.

They're mentally abusing you...it's what they do. Just ignore them...they'll get tired of no reaction and move on...it's the DRAMA...women are addicted to it. They crave it like you crave that hot thing you saw at the square the other night. Men and women are different. They see someone being weak and they pounce. It's numbers to them, they work in numbers because individually they hold no power. The grade school, and high school girl cliques never go away... Women...they're so delusional...laugh at them, don't fear them.

I am ignoring affald. I only check in with what he posts if it looks like I have grounds to complain to the Moderator.

I do not like your racist posts but you do not get personal with anyone and you only talk about posts or your theories about minorities. Affald attacks people's family relationships and the like. That crosses the line especially if he insinuates that he knows me and my family. It is hitting way below the belt. I do not know the creep affald and he does not know me.

My suggestion to the moderators is not to punish all participants by suspending or closing the forum because of the antics and aggravation of the few....(as done in the past).

Just simply delete/ban/remove those who offend and do not play by the rules of respect and decency.

just as it was on the prior political forum, there are a very few who are the problem.

I for one am not in favor of the prospect of the forum being discontinued, AGAIN, for the antics of the few.

I agree. There is one person that should be banned from Talk of the Villages IMHO for his actions over the past few days. I mean affald of course.

And the Moderator knows that I quoted affald's posts on the Regular Forum and then complained to the Moderator about them. And did not do much of anything else with this creep's posts against me. I did say I was making a complaint. I am pretty sure I recorded these on Facebook too so I will double-check that.

And I am pretty sure that the Moderator gets that those posts by affald were aimed at me even if they did not use my name. Their location and content were directed right at me.

[dirtbanker]

Please stop encouraging this guy. There is obviously something wrong with his thought process. Many have tried to advise him to be the better person and ignore, but he just can't let it go.

Many have left this forum because they were tired of being called racist if they complained about Obamma's performance, many left this forum because they were call misogynist, xenophobia, sexists, and other terms just because they were right leaning.

This individual throws out those negative terms towards our president and any supporter of our president, and then whines to close the forum down "they are making fun of me"...this individual is not all there, hypocritical at the least. He would be better to stay out of the political forum if he does not want confrontation...

One of the reasons the original political forum was discontinued was the spillover of acrimonious posts into main forum discussions. In the intervening months, there were numerous threads and posts asking for the return of the political forum. To concerns about political comments and attitudes entering main board discussions, many assured us that wouldn't happen. The use of "Guest" as the ID for all participants was an attempt to ward off spillover to the main section by keeping participants anonymous. Unfortunately, an app not supported by TOTV revealed posters actual ID increasing member on member hostility.

We are now seeing significant incidences of posters bringing their hostility toward other members into main board threads through direct responses and comments that may outwardly appear innocuous but are intended to antagonize. This must stop NOW.

The existence of the political forum and posting privileges may be at risk if this continues.

Moderator

I was one of the posters on the original Political Forum and sadly recall a few posters who became so abusive they were removed as members of TOTV and eventually removed Political forum because some posters simply could not follow the rules of civiity.

I am also one of the posters who pleaded with TOTV to please return Political forum to TOTV. You folks did and it was a wise move to list everyone as guest and to eliminate the PM option.

Unfortunately with a turn of events usernames were discovered, additional posters joined Political Talk and a few cause havoc an still do.

TOTV's rule of personal attacks is being violated and I have written a number of threads to discourage this practice, as have others.

It would seem that any poster who carries such conduct outside political talk ought to be ousted immediately from TOTV.

Further review by moderators ought to post warning to those posters who violate the "personal attack rule". I would suggest three warnings and their out.

As you will note political Talk given the number of threads is popular. The many should not be penalized because of the few.

Thank you for listening.

The Magic Sentences Of Liberty

We can eliminate 90% of the foolishness we call "politics" by following these first principles of Liberty:


"Liberty" is a poetic term for property rights.

Therefore there are only TWO KINDS OF LAWS:

- those that protect property rights,

- and those that attack property rights.

"Have the government do unto others and their property as you'd have the government do unto you, and your property."

The swamp does have a way of always seeming to stay the same no matter who is President.

[Don Baldwin]

The swamp does have a way of always seeming to stay the same no matter who is President.

Yes it does...the "Board of Directors" hire the CEO and call the shots. The CEOs are the mouthpiece, cheerleader, and fall guy. The board determines the course and tell the "captain" where to steer the ship. They own the ship.

The government, the president, are no different. The government is PLACED there by the politicians who are ALSO placed there to do the bidding of the corporations.

The social issue problems are just a distraction.

The president is placed in office too... To make the public feel they have a "say" in things...the "owners" of America offer a "choice" of a handful of "candidates"...to "choose from". It's age old psychology...let people THINK they have a choice and they're much more agreeable. You had no choice...BOTH were working for the system...and we will lose again.

Trump won because "they" wanted him to win. The whole rogue thing was reality TV. He was brought in to "clean house", get those too entrenched, too powerful...out. A NEW set of corrupt individuals to help them loot the treasury.

The swamp will never be drained...not during this 4 years. The old swamp creatures will be replaced by new swamp creatures. Time for new blood, spread the wealth. The Ds have been looting long enough...time for some new thieves to get a shot.
