Now admin can explain why he deleted a thread that pointed out the fact that his buddies were upset with him for not commenting on this thread.

Trump = Disaster

He lamented that he wished it was the other Trump. That fits the second example listed in Wikipedia's explanation. It has been ruled, in the past, that wishing the President was dead is the same as a public plea for him to die. That is a call to incite murder and can be punished as a felony. I'm not saying it would have happened, but it is better to be safe than sorry. I see a big difference between wishing nature took someone sooner, through illness or natural causes, and suggesting that someone ought to be killed. But that's just me.
No, it's not just you. K-StU's misrepresentation of what people here are saying has been noted. It's sad that someone with as tenuous a connection to truth and reality as K-StU has a position of authority here.
Actually, shameful.

Maybe it's time to start another LNF. Sure, knock yourself out ... It doesn't require that much smarts. .. You should be able to pull it off..  |

You're being silly. No one threatened the president. He lamented that he wished it was the other Trump. That fits the second example listed in Wikipedia's explanation. It has been ruled, in the past, that wishing the President was dead is the same as a public plea for him to die. That is a call to incite murder and can be punished as a felony. I'm not saying it would have happened, but it is better to be safe than sorry. There was no threat. It's fairly ridiculous to think there was. |

Whether right or wrong an admin does not admonish his moderators in public unless he's a jerk. Are you? |

Is there an exception for when said moderator is a jackass and does a jackass thing then publicly doubles down on said jackassery? |

The Admin in this case switches to his regular username and then takes issue with what he's feels is wrong. He doesn't do it while in his official role of "admin". This is the only board I ever seen that happen on. Hope that clears things up. |

That statement is a good example of the smug and simplistic libertarian attitude that so annoys.
Especially since by your own admission Libertarians are anything but consistent. They have no unified message. It is why there will never be a viable Libertarian party until you guys become better and more consistent, as well as less smug and less simplistic.
I don't think it is smug or simplistic. I'm just being honest. I think the left is not left enough. There I said it! For the record, I am a libertarian, not a Libertarian. I wouldn't join that party if it was the last one on earth. FWIW, I have always considered you to be a small 'l' libertarian. |

Have you complained to Solar about this?

Why didn't he pay this month's rent for free space in your head? I know I did. But your a lousy landlord anyway. Sidenote: Greg the token and troll has a one track mind. He's gratifies himself multiple times a day by repeating the same stale line about Solar and myself every day. I'm wondering about something greg. In your case deos your nose turn white after brown-nosing and then extracting it from Fiddler's ass? Asking for a friend? |

This seems to be the life of a moderator / admin. Hands off until the rhetoric gets so ridiculous and disgusting that they step in. Then the cry of "censorship!", "there was nothing wrong with that post/thread!" and "I'm leaving!". Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Left alone, we seem to devolve into children on these forums, myself included. Let's try not to do that. We're guests here, nothing more.
Fiddler, I commend you for selecting a co-moderator from the opposite side. I doubt that the first LNF admin or Solar would have done the same.
Let's treat the mods as referees/umpires; we may not like their call, we may kick dust on their shoes, we may call them blind, but the call is final and we move on.
Now, boys and girls....PLAY BALL!!!

Well said. The problem as you can see are those like greg. He prances in and attacks me right off the bat for no reason. Now some would say ignore it. I choose to reply. Watch what happens next. They pile on and when admin gets involved being a former and current troll himself he doesn't look to see who started it..he admonishes those he politically opposes while giving a pass to troll-like behavior. He even tampered with my account. Look at the picture. Not the one that was there. |

Yes I'm sure people will be thrilled to know that you will fuck with their accounts at will if you choose to. Keep removing the screenshot as well. I can posted it as many times as you remove it. |

Yeah, that was funny. Abe as a little bug that eats shit. Quite appropriate I'd say.

Perhaps you could cite the PJ Media article that defines the code of ethics/responsibilities/professionalism for forum admins? |

Fiddler, I commend you for selecting a co-moderator from the opposite side. I doubt that the first LNF admin or Solar would have done the same. No they wouldn't have. I think they felt like their positions were so fragile .. so impossible to defend that tyrannical moderation was necessary to keep facts at bay .. Let's treat the mods as referees/umpires; we may not like their call, we may kick dust on their shoes, we may call them blind, but the call is final and we move on. Now, boys and girls....PLAY BALL!!!
You're crazy as fuck but thanks for the vote of confidence.. .  PLAY BALL indeed .. |

Poor little greggy can only name call because every time he challenges me on issues he ends up logging off only to return later with his insults. |
