Secret Wars

Freedivers rules intended to remove himself from interminable forum shitfights only work if the manager of the forum is a somewhat honest broker.
Of course with that there is also the ultimate disclaimer, if you don't like the management of the forum, don't post there.
Now taken to a logical extreme, and with dishonest forum managers that will end up with a balkanisation of the forum, threads will only reflect opinion and argument that the manager of the forum agrees with. I have personal experience of this with Greggs forum. Fine, that's within the rules, and I for one, don't intend to post in his forum again, for me it's a pointless activity, it just gets deleted, usually before I have even got back to view by time.
One thing you can say for Gregg, he is obsessive and constant in his forum presence.
So a couple of lessons for me, the forums utility as a site to debate is more and more becoming suspectable to which forum you are posting in. That next time forum mod positions are up for grabs I might even throw my hat in the ring for no other purpose to have fun deleting other people's posts. It's a cheap thrill I imagine but hey, why not.
I also note, it's amusing to me, that Gregg is such a pathetic snowflake, it reinforces my opinion of the turd. He accuses Herbie of leaving for other forums because he cannot handle contrary opinion and on a forum he controls, he does exactly what he accuses Herbie of.
Ahhh, it has always been the way of the left, hypocrisy writ large, not do as I do but do as I demand.
