Need to wait for a replay. I only watched about 15 minutes of the debate tonight, and my takeaway was ... I hate this shit!! And even worse, we're stuck with it for the next 15 months (plus the political ads that will inundate us). It's f'ing gross. My wife did DVR it, so I might try to pick my way through it some time this week if I can stomach it. From the 15 minutes I watched, it sure as hell didn't solidify who I would vote for in the primary, that's for sure. As far as Fox hosting it ... I don't think any major network is capable of hosting a debate, quite honestly. They've all become huge shit shows, with the candidates talking over each other, the crowd booing, and moderators being ignored. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The questions and format were typical Fox shit and dog whistle Q&A. Not nearly enough time was spent on economic matters... not even close. Nikki Haley came out swinging though on matters of spending. 'R' buddy voted for Trump in '16 and didn't vote for anyone for POTUS in 2020. His comments about Vivek were priceless... and not positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem is you perceive him as a member, the membership perceive him as a mod. You can't be a mod and be a member, I have been trying in a round about way to tell you that, but I just get fed up and give up. If a cop shows up to a party in civilian clothes, the pot disappears, the music goes down and people act different. To think Mr Ban Hammer is a member is pissing into the wind, if you get my analogy. I mentioned quite some time ago the class (or the lack there of) of people who WORK FOR YOU are a direct reflection on you and the site. As always, you do what you want. But try to understand you have employees stealing the silverware off the tables, and no amount of calling them customers is going to change that. I don't give a shit what you do or how you handle it. Loyalty goes up as well as down, and he shows you none with the way he treats the MEMBERS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think I would get anyone to volunteer to help me run this place if I told them that they could post, but had to do it with their hands tied? Keep in mind were you are. I could understand the complaints if he abused the powers, but he doesn't. All that he uses it for is to help keep things running for you and the other members.

It's a small fucking forum. Your requirement of double standards goes against any sort of freedom. Wake up and think. It is seriously disgusting to see all these proud pretend republicans pull the victim card. Grow some fucking balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was only ever one cop on these forums and that was Rob. When it passed to John we all gladly accepted him as having the same role. Then came the stinker debacle and that left a bad taste in our mouths about mod privileges. I get John needs help , it’s great that HSR does that.

At the time Rob wouldn't even consider it unless we were both on board. After OT left Rob promoted Joel. Rob was the one that you didn't want to talk back to when he told you to drop it. Now that is me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had access to members personal info here and on HCS for 10 years previously. Can you point to an instance where I EVER abused my power? Have I ever posted a members real full name on any forum? Or anything for that matter. That kinda shit would have been made well known if it ever happened. You're creating a scenario to fit your narrative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all honesty I probably exaggerated that a bit at the time. I can't even remember all of the details. I *think* Dave blew Snakes cover for a dupe account and it pissed me off. When I went back to the logs I could see where Dave edited members posts. I knew that he and Z both used to edit spelling mistakes in thread titles. Since I couldn't see exactly what was done, just that it had been edited, I blamed Dave for editing members posts.. He was probably telling the truth when he claimed that he was just editing for spelling. I guess I am getting soft in my old age 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
