Why do you hate the Architect of the Capitol? **

I've occasionally wondered if their site has gotten some flak for sharing initials: Link.

I was not trying to indicate that I hate her. Actually quite the opposite. I was thinking they would lock this thread as soon as a liberal posted.

That's understood & I didn't intend to hint that you were. I was on the Architect site a few days ago and noted the shared initials.

This is what bothers me about certain threads. They drone on and on with two posters refusing to relent. Constantly pushing the same thread to the top on a topic that 99% of us aren't here to read about. In the words of Dave Chappelle the lock is here to "Wrap it up"!

And I agree on the other. IMPP's threads are gone in a day. Those you truly can ignore.

But if you're not involved why does it bother you? Who cares if they argue in the same thread for 1 day or 1 year? Just dont open it. I pass over everything that doesn't interest me and click on the ones I want to read. Why should there be a time limit on discussions or arguments?

Because many of us use thread view and it clogs up the board

If it fails these 2 tests I lock it...

Does it read like my wife’s uncle who watches Fox News on full blast all day posted it?

Does it read like my wife’s crystal healing hippie cousin could have written it?

Also I lock them because I know it annoys the **** out of some of you.

See, Chris Mannix? See how he does this? It is very subtle. Fox News = far right extreme. Hippies = far left extreme. Which indicates, he, a likely CNN fan, is somewhere in the middle. He has pre-set a left-leaning view as the middle. Pretty laughable and obvious to the trained eye.

He forgets the far-right KKK or ISIS type folks, which would balance the scale back to true moderates in the middle. They just want people to believe that the people who watch Fox News are equal to that.

Right (the direction) = all wrong. Left = lots of room for interpretation, but you are not given any credit unless you adopt a left leaning POV to begin with. I.e. political correctness.

First off if it gets me banned then so be it, dude you are not telling me anything that I do not already know. The moderators on here are so bias and unreasonable. I had no doubt that you guys were just locking some threads to be ********. That is pretty obvious. Now ban me or lock the thread because I said something you didn’t like.

I agree with most of what you said, I just think if you are going to have reasons for banning people and locking threads then at least be fair with it. If you can’t do that then you quit pretending to be.
