it's funny cause right after you and cuth posted I knew MB was gonna debate the derailment for another couple pages.... Could've just let one person say sftu but when multiple people tag on you inevitably are just starting a new debate lol... But ending the endless debate with your comment just wasn't the way the universe predetermined MB to work.

But at least this discussion is more fun than the other one. I don't mind off topic banter at all (or I'd be a hypocrite), I just mind boring discussions

You know what I do with discussions I find boring? Nothing lol I just ignore them. Crazy concept I know.

Not my fault you signed up to be a mod and are obligated to read every thread Marie. That's what you get for joining law enforcement.

It's not that it was boring, it's that there is a core of four or five posters who infest pretty much every thread with the same cringe worthy discussions on communism fascism capitalism communism fascism capitalism and has been going on for a good two years now. Keep it to one of the many threads for politics you gimps.

Spot-on, Cuthbert!

And it's not like we don't already have threads for those topics...

Let's talk about capitalism

Socialism


There also used to be a thread for communism here somewhere but I couldn't find it.

I also find little of interest in those long philosophical/political debates that some of you like, but I'm ok with following jwb's advice.

Could one of us suggest that we (participants of off-topic conversation) move the conversation to a more appropriate thread for the subject matter? Sure we could. Will others actually follow suit and continue conversation in the other thread? Unlikely. Even if they did, what if that conversation then again veers off the topic at hand? Move the conversation again to a different thread? In short, this is why forums in general are dead.
I like the image of the tent, the beers and the grave. Is that what we are now, guys camping out in the ruins ? Actually, I don't think so. Does anyone else spot an inconsistency between declaring MB dead and wondering how to manage pages of spontaneous discussion that erupt in the wrong thread? That seems like a clear sign of life to me; we are like doctors declaring, "This patient is dead. If only he'd stop breathing!"

While I'm a big fan of on-topic threads in the music sections, I think the lounge has always been an unpredictable ragbag of posting - that's part of its charm.

Here's a modding idea that I don't think I've ever seen used. If a thread is getting seriously derailed, put a link to where the conversation should be taking place, then temporarily close the thread that's off-track. Not saying it would work, and it would put yet another burden on Marie, who seems to be the only actively-participating mod these days. She would have to become a traffic cop as well, waving cars down a detour to get them back on the right road.

Hey if you wanna complain about communism then either you finally explain about the anti-immigrant Pepe memes you posted like I've been asking about for years or you shut the **** up, you whiny ****.

Ah yes, more logical fallacies.

I'm sorry you feel so repressed batman. I know navigating to another thread would be incredibly difficult.

And it's the same four or five posters who'll whine about the existence of a discussion for pages so let's all just commit seppuku.
