It is an entirely different matter altogether to consider what this group actually intended to pull off, fueled by their own inflated sense of self-importance—unless, of course, you’re going to try and convince me that this was some spontaneous movement where everyone just happened to share the exact same thought at the exact same time?
Honestly, this is elementary school level logic, and frankly, it’s becoming a bit embarrassing having to sit here and explain the obvious to you over and over again.
I gave you a straight answer. If you can't handle it, fine. Stop spinning the story and shifting the focus to the fans. I didn't ask about them.
So, do you think the OP intended this thread to be a debate about a garage, or was it meant as a comparison to that recent situation? I don't see why it's hard to just say what you think. Or do you not even bother thinking about trivial things, like what this thread I'm moderating is actually about?
What kind of 'idea is it to cause chaos in politics'? If staying on topic counts as making a mess, then sure, you're right.
Let's not drag this out. One quick question, hoping for an honest, straight answer:
valsimot53 said:A hundred "protesters" making noise, breaking the peace and trashing property. Should we join them or support the legal state's sharpest intervention (aka the police)?
After reading the opening post, what do you think the author actually intended here? A place to debate urban planning? Or something else entirely?
And obviously, I never said this whole forum was just about the fans, but you already know that—you're just trolling a little bit.
Sure, you just cherry-picked exactly what you wanted from my post and ignored everything else—especially the part where I was actually talking about how the admins handle this subforum.
Honestly, those numbers don't really reflect what's actually happening on the ground. They’re more like rough guesses at best, and honestly, they're super easy to mess up if you aren't careful. You can't just take them at face value. What actually matters is what the pros are saying, and the experts are pointing out that the fan base is sitting pretty low on the forum attendance rankings.
Look, you’re gonna have to go ask him yourself. Seriously. But yeah, we aren't planning on shutting things down right now. soccer.
Maybe they aren't perfect, but they can't be *that* wrong. This topic has 2.5 million views, and this other one has 1.5 million. Just look at this post below—there's no way the one at the bottom has fewer views than the one up here.

Local News: 251,578 TOP thread ŽUD: 499,910 TOP thread Politics: 359,992 Law: 119,571 General Chat: 379,581 Health: 614,953 Housing: 824,501
Add all that up... and you get the total views for the BBB thread.
Nathan Bailey65 said:For one thing, I can’t bring myself to support any mods coming from the political side of things. It’s just a constant tug-of-war for me—it feels like everyone is positioned against my views, unless we're talking about specific stances held by Power or d@du, who haven't been around for quite some time now. 😁
But look, I’ll offer you a piece of advice... it seems pretty obvious that the "football" crowd has already started gearing up for a comeback. They're basically just sitting there, waiting for any excuse to strike back on behalf of the "fans."
Seriously though, man, if you keep going down this path, you won't have anyone left to actually post in the Football PDF section. 🤣
So, here’s my suggestion: lift their bans so they can actually participate in the Football discussion and maybe just issue some partial bans on the Politics PDF for, say, a few weeks...
dustypuma5 said:Looking at this latest wave of violence in the politics thread, it feels like an all-out war against the admin. I get why users aren't happy with the admin's calls, but moderators who are basically picking sides in this fight against him should either step down or be kicked out. So, I guess it’s about time we stop letting them delete troll posts and start handing them bans for the exact same stuff regular users get flagged for.
As for ZgSash, he's the first admin on this forum who actually responds to appeals. We finally have some actual oversight over the mods, where sometimes a ban gets overturned if a mod messes up. The guy is reasonable—you can talk to him without him always having to be right or doing whatever you want—but he’s definitely one of the best admins we've had since this place started. Maybe people should just show the admin some support and give him the ammo to get rid of these moderators who won't follow his policies (since they're too cowardly to resign themselves).
ZgSash, just keep doing your thing. You're doing a good job and it's about time things were settled once and for all.
yeah, totally 🙏
Regarding the actual topic at hand, I've been skimming through and one thing sticks out: Why is everyone arguing about stuff that's completely off-topic given why the thread was even started? From what I can tell, they were deleting on-topic posts too. Not sure what the logic there was.
Alright, regarding this Ambrosian stuff, check out that transfer in the 79th minute. Those two 😁 aren't even close. It looks more like the Sampdoria crest 🙂
The real kicker is this one line: Ridley Scott is a fine director for work like this, although in another world, Hollywood would let Him make Smarter films.
It's a shame, really. 😢
Check, please!
How on earth could something like this cost a staggering $237 million? 😕
Insiders close to the film say it will have to take in about $300 million worldwide to turn a profit.
If this thing doesn't break even—and it hasn't exactly had a great start—Brian Grazer and the folks at Universal are going to be absolutely livid. 😬
Honestly, they deserve it after how he screwed over Lustig. 👎
Damn, with almost 7 million writers out there, guess it’s about time I tried my hand at a script. 😁
Got this series on my list—it's a spin-off from a movie I saw a few months back, but I haven't actually sat down to watch it yet. Gonna dive in soon though. Honestly, that level of swearing is a god-given talent 🙏😁
There’s also the whole issue of licensing those old classics. You can't just grab a movie and start screening it whenever you want... there are copyright laws and stuff, right?
Hannah Davis18 said:pretty much. but let's not get carried away. and why is everyone tripping over the "500" thing? the guy was acting out and honestly, the fact he got banned before for the exact same tone and style just gives me an easy way to get rid of him. that's all there is to it. I'm not trying to give anyone a lecture on how not to talk about people.
🤣 man, feels like you can't even call someone an idiot anymore without making a scene🤷.
honestly, if we’re gonna be this "strict" about it, maybe we should start handing out citations just for using the word gypsy. That’s racism too, right? They’re Roma, after all.
