ah yes, the persecuted "minority 'right'" rears its head once again...

I think it's more accurate to say that when people openly declare that they consider fighting/inciting/ridiculing liberals/leftists to be fun, a sport, a war (figuratively and literally), as you have stated on mulitiple occasions ustwo, that does more to disrupt the desired tenor of this board than any threads/thread titles that may or may not be off-the-wall.

and there are perhaps a handful, and only that, of members who make it regular practice to drop one-liners in response to what others have taken the time to draft a lengthy response to what they consider a complex problem.

congrats on your mod-status, tuber, but this issue isn't even remotely new to this part of tfp. And I know you are aware of that, because you've been here forever (and I gauge that by placing the forever as beginning when this special section was created). So I don't know if this is something that other mods are discussing in the backdrop, but in the past it's been my understanding that this section had basically reached a pont where it was useful for seperating the wheat from the chaff, and pretty much only that.
