Dane, I hope you reconsider. I've always enjoyed your posts and you have a way of generating board activity for lack of a better word. This place will be less interesting without you.

Alright, I've had a chance to read the thread now. Time to sound off. I'm sorry, but we collectively cross the line daily. Shock value as I like to call it. Whether it's comments about ****ing mothers, AIDS shrubbery, 400lb man sodomization, dying breeds, or a litany of other hateful, vile, venomous comments strewn about in all directions, this is what we've become.
How could ANYTHING at this point be off limits? How could one possibly know what is "acceptable" and what is not. This comes down to the base core of our dynamic at Chiefsplanet. Will we be moderated, or will we not? Overwhelmingly, time and time again, we've chosen to not be moderated. We are largely, a group of men who understand that the internet can be a dangerous place for the emotionally weak. Everyone gets their feelers hurt every once in a while and ultimately we are responsible for whether or not we choose to be a part of this community. And let's face it, our policy makes it a whole lot better for the lulz. I'm sorry Dane has left. I like that dude. More than he likes me in all probability. But I can't think of 1 single person on this board that has thrown more shit at more different posters than he has. You think he hasn't personally offended some of them in ways that hit close to home in their personal lives? That would be near impossible, IMHO, and frankly, I don't give a shit, you don't give a shit, and he never gave a shit. In this place, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. If we're going to make anything out of bounds, we need to rewrite the whole ****ing book if you ask me. We've been out of bounds for years now. We were out of bounds before out of bounds was cool. What's it going to be? Is it time to change? As much as I hate losing a quality poster like Dane, I hope it's not time to change. Like I said, the way we do it is much better for the lulz. |

I do think there are times more mod attention would be beneficial. I don't mind long time members who toss shit occasionally as opposed to trolls just being assholes 24/7. There is a difference. If you don't provide anything positive to the board *ever* I got no problem with somebody sending you packing. (course most of those people are on my ignore list, so they don't bother me personally - but I do think they impact the overall mood of the board) |

Was gonna post this in the suicide thread, but it seemed in poor taste if he was serious. |

It infuriates me that this board drives away solid posters and continues to reward *ucktards like R8ers and Goturd.
Something is wrong when thats allowed to happen. Simple as that. Good Luck Dane, hope to see u again in another life.... |

Equating R8ers to GoChiefs is wrong. Clay contributes a lot of Chiefs-related stuff to the board and has actually attended Planet functions. R8ers on the other hand, is a worthless pile of shit who has never contributed anything positive to the board.
