    There are only less than a handful of members (on "both sides") who need to reduce their post rate for sanity to be restored. You just quoted one of them.

    Well said, thumbs, except for the obituary part. If this forum "died," it would be a disaster. D&D serves a purpose by keeping these topics out of Hangout and elsewhere.

    I'll add that this thread, in my opinion, isn't intended to be a home to the "back and forth" we see in the rest of the forum, but rather to promote civility. Your post is a fine example for others to follow.

    Time for some mischief.

    The ignore button works much more effectively now. Not seeing a lot of the gibberish posters is a welcome improvement.

    It does work much better, it might actually save this forum once all the trolls realize no one is reading their posts.

    So ignoring is one of your tactics when you D&D? Good to know engaging you is useless.

    Seems you can slander anyone you choose, lie with impunity about anything, distort history and the truth without consequence here in the D&D but please, no use of foul language.

    I've learned my lesson and will be a good boy.

    I keep my sanity by hanging on to the certain knowledge that some of the worst posters on the far right are pimply teenagers banging at their keyboards with glee, sure that they are getting the attention here that real life has failed to grant them.

    Great to see you again down here, mc mark!

    Doesn't exactly sounds like you've learned your lesson, actually.

    Forever trolling, the bigotexx clown show never ceases. Now he has to share the stage with other racists and new white supremacists so you can count on him upping the race bait ante to stay in the troll game.

    Actually you're the troll. No clue what race bait ante you're even talking about.

    mcmark clearly hasn't learned his lesson, so he tried the passive aggressive approach above. It's disrespectful

    I have to say it was much better being on the other side of the spectrum in terms of debate - folks like you, invisible fan, major, and many others always listened first and could explore nuances with respect. You don't see that from the right and anti-Muslim posters on here - who deal in absolutes and when confronted with facts respond with talking points and insults.

    Yeah, we know. There's no evidence of your racist nonsense except for all the years of your threads and posts. You like to get a rise out of people online with racist crap because you're a loser of a human being. We get it.

    Yeah when someone is trolling Germans with nonsense non-stop for 10 years then maybe you can chime in on that one with a little better perspective.

    BTW, you call people morons, idiots, and other names on a regular basis so as to trash their arguments. Why are you talking about toning it down? What?
