PUTTING SOMEONE ON MOD REVIEW

Recommended Posts

Kristi....I have brought this up so many times before and it is taken as The 1st Amendment Right to Free Speech.....In my opinion this handful of Never Trumpers has Ruined what was once the premier Dinar Forum out there so much that I stopped posting quiet a while ago.

 

These days I stop by to see if there is any info on the IQD and can't help but see the hate that gets posted 24/7 and I can only see it getting worse as long as they are allowed such leniency.

 

On other Forum I belong to they folks would have been gone years ago and Especially B/A aka Johnny Dinar for coming back under a 2nd or 3rd Name.

 

Good Luck but I am afraid your point will fall to the way side.

So nice to hear likeminded people about the vitriol spewed in this forum towards Q and Trump supporters. Yet..... They are allowed to constantly demean and degrade us.
 

I am done with trying to be a digital warrior on this board. If it has nothing directly to do with an IBC or IQD I’m out. This board about politics now belongs to the never trumpers I.e. the TDS people.

These are scary times as the majority of members here are pro-Trump and we are very concerned our Republic may fall to socialism if we can't expose and undo the voter fraud in the last election.  So right now, I like checking the Politics section often to see what others are posting.  I just went there and found that 6 of the 7 most recent posts are from shabilicious.  This member, like johnny dinar who is alaready on mod review, is disrespectful and most of his posts are attacks on Trump, done with the intention of getting pro-Trump members into an argument as the try to defend him.  Shab's goal in posting does not seem to be respectful discussion, but rather to push the buttons of Trump supporters.  I've actually stopped reading shab's, along with johnny dinar's and caddieman's, posts because I refuse to let strangers pull me into an endless argument.  I believe their real goal is to push the buttons of people they don't even know in order to feel powerful.  Their modus operandi seems to be to get people angry enough to say something unkind so they can then attack them for being intolerant.  It's classic, passive agressive behavior in my opinion.  I've tried to explain this to others here more than once, pointing out that the solution is to stop engaging with these people who are trying to bait you into losing your temper.  If you just ignore them, they'll eventually go away and target other people, hopefully on a different forum.  But nobody listened and now these people are taking over the Politics section.  I started a topic about Covid being partisan, and sure enough shabs replyed to it and hijacked the subject to be about Trump losing the election (I didn't actually read it, but I read Coors reply to him from which I could gather what was said).  So I replied and politely asked if people would not pull that thread off topic, and no surprise, all three of them, shabs, johnny and caddieman quickly replied.  As I said, I don't play their game so I don't read what they post, but I'm pretty sure they were not making construction comments but rather their posts were attacks of same kind designed to start an argument.  Also, here's a screenshot I just took showing how much shabs is posting in the Politics section now - 6 out of the 7 most recent comments - in 7 different threads, were from him/her.  Again, I don't read what he/she posts either, but I feel confident that if you do read those posts, you'll find they are attacks of some kind designed to get a rise of out pro-Trump people and pull them into a never ending argument.

I invite other members to comment about their experiences with these 3 members as well.  If others are also bothered by their behavior - and I believe they are, can admin put the last 2 on mod review, like you already have done with Johnny?  And just censor their posts when you see the intent is to goad people into arguing with them.  As I said, these are scary times and it would be so great if we could all respectfully share our opinions about what's going without being baited into meaningless, unending arguments.  Thank you   

 

 

Yes – and thank you for taking the time to write this post. Everything listed is true. I received 3 penalty points from a moderator for using the word moron. By definition the word moron means a foolish person. That got me penalty points – I’m done! . What is going on here that we are letting never Trumper‘s control a very important topic that affects the whole reason we are here? I don’t think it’s right at all. Anyway thank you for writing – and as I mentioned in my last post - I’m sticking only to dinar and IBC discussions only if at all. Bye

I am not keen on someone gloating how terrible OUR president is everyday....almost all day!

Always looking for an argument that for sure will end up with them getting in the last word....always!

Why even have a political section, how about the politics of Iraq instead?  JMO

As part of the demonstrated mental incompetence, the “battle” “ready” “stance” Demonstrated by these posters is nothing short of astonishing.

 

No amount of “intellectual” “chiropractic” “aid” avails them of their respective “grip” on themselves.

 

Their Cognitive Dissonance, Transference Neurosis, Willful Ignorance, AND (of course) Tactical Stupidity is beyond the aid of the most accomplished and sincere individuals.

 

Not to forget the passive to aggressive narcissistic persona that can not be held second to any other person on or off the DinarVets Forum.

 

I can not imagine Freedom Of Speech can be held hostage to some one else’s Freedom Of Vulgar Speech promoting their own senseless and self seeking agenda at the expense of Truth, Decency, Reason, AND (of course) Common Sense necessary for the exercise and enjoyment of peaceable practices and interactions.
 

I agree with the originating post in this thread and the corresponding aligning posts.

 

Not because of the political perspective but THEIR incendiary and inflammatory intents for baseless purposes should they find another venue amenable to their dispositions.

 

Patriotism is core to an extensive amount of posters here at DinarVets the three billy goats, er, amigos find so abhorrent.

 

I am OK with saying adios amigos to the “trace” “compadres”.

 

Go Moola Nova!

Thanks  Kristi, this is the best solution that I see. The exercise of good boundaries is a hallmark of a healthy person, you have the right to engage as much as you want and the right to just say no.  I benefit from posts from all the members , even the ones that attack me personally. I would not like to see our forum contributors limited to only those that sit together and agree on everything.  I don't find any of the posts from Shabs, Johnny Dinar or Caddieman offensive, merely articles that reflect what is happening in the MSM. SINCE THAT INFORMATION IS MSM, it is representative of what the general public is being exposed too and therefore it is something that is good to be aware of. To start censoring is a slippery slope, I would hope we don't go down that road.

I tend to agree, as I also agree with others who do not like the arrogance and divisive nature of certain posters.  Adam has moderators to review and act per Adam's instructions.  Would I do things differently?  Yep.  But this is not my site, and I am profoundly grateful for Adam and his vision for dinar investments. 

 

Another thing is that when we post a thread, we sometimes think we can control responses and keep the thread on track.  Heck, even Adam can't do that (look at his Wed. updates).

 

Thank goodness we gave geen given the the ignore button.  I have used it, and it has been used for me.

Most of the HATERS couldn't give you accurate reasons why they dislike the President. Group mentality is dangerous and silly. They seem to have issues that most sane people just can't phantom. Lord forbid biden and crew take office. What they have planned will surely ruin our country's values and strengthen the foreign governments President Trump has taken steps to pull in line. His interest in strengthening our economy and take folks off the govt dole will be replaced with a govt run/ rule we may never recover from. So long middle class and free thinking. Good example is mask wearing. Few if any use useful masks and nobody seems to realize your eyes pickup the virus more readily than breathing it in. All of the folks who point this out are being censored by the dark side - swamp  - for their own purposes. 

 

As a side note - I too dislike a thread deviating from the topic at hand and morphing into idiotic comments and drivel. Seems too many adults are often just older versions of the immature versions of the children they never grew out of.

I just want to say that I am absoultely for free-speech.  I constantly say there's a reason Freedom of Speech is our first Amendment right.  But these 3 people are NOT trying to share information or even opinions - at least not most of the time.  Their real goal in posting is usually to aggravate pro-Trumpers so that can fight with them.  They say horrible things about our president just to make us angry.  That's why I no longer will read their posts.  But the people who read their posts usually get angry and respond by saying something unkind, which is exactly what these 3 people want.  I believe it probably makes them feel powerful to be able to exert control of strangers.   And I'll say it again, this is classic PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR.  They pick at you until you snap back, then the criticize you for snapping.  And this is abusive behavior..... let me repeat, this is abusive behavior.  

 

I first decided to submit a support ticket on this rather than post on the forum, but then I noticed Jonny Dinar's post about being on mod review.  So I read that thread and it looked to me like Johnny Dinar was likely put on mod review for innappropriate posting.  So I think deliberately baiting and attacking other members here certainly must also count as inappropriate posting. Hopefully the good folks in admin can read this and understand why I'm asking for this.  I don't want to censor these 3 members' from sharing information or opinions.  But there's a proper way to to that - a respectful way and these people are deliberately disrespectful in their posts because there intent is not discourse, it's to pick a fight.  None of us really care that they hate Trump, heck we're used to people hating him.  The problem is not about liking or disliking Trump, the point is that these people's intention is to deliberately infuriate the majority of members here. 

Really, it's a form of bullying and I don't think it should be tolerated. 

 

Can any mods bring this to Adam's attention please?

Not long ago I posted something similar in the middle of one of those hot mess hijacked threads....

 

In that thread it was surmised that JD was the previously banned BA

 

I stated if it were my site the 3 in question would all be banned.....(for sure JD)...or at least placed on a mod review......mostly because they bring zero value to the site....

 

I did receive some feedback......the 3 that surprised me were from AM...Granny...and Yota....all laughing  faces...

 

You know it's Montana's site.....it's not a democracy....he rules it.....if in his judgement the 3 characters are value added to his site and the people who frequent it.....that's his prerogative.....but if so.....I respectfully disagree...

Not sure which post you're referring to, but I assure you that my :lol: reaction was certainly something in the comment, not about the content matter itself.

 

JD f/k/a BA for example has been put on mod review and I promise nobody is in a hurry to approve their postings.

 

I decided to turn a blind eye to the person, thinking perhaps they would have learned... anything? 

 

It's looking like I was wrong. :shrug:

I have had, let's just say difference, with 3 members and this is one. I would say the issue is the same or with a passive aggressive nature in their posting to me. You can take a review of my posting history and it be clear. I have stopped posting altogether on that side. I post only in VIP and this is the reason why. I will post to say thank you to Adam and his Staff and to RonScarpa as well, but I have moved over and plan on staying in VIP. Mostly because up until a few days ago none of these members were in VIP

Thought he was gone....

For the umpteenth time, not reading their posts is the answer.  If you stop engaging with them, they'll give up and go somewhere else to find new people to abuse.  But very few people here are willing to do that and continue to be baited by these people.  This only encourages them to be more aggressive, so that now, as I pointed out when I started this thread, Shabs has hijacked the Politics section.  Boosterbglee just posted a screenshot showing that he is still actively posting in the majority of threads there.  And since these are such precarious times, it'd sure be nice to be able to go there and quickly see if any of the people, whose opinions I do respect, have posted recently.  Instead I have to maneuver around Shabs, and to a lesser extent, the other two's excessive number of disrespectful posts. 

 

But I am unclear as to whether Adam is going to do anything about this.  If not, is it possible for us to start a Politics section in VIPMost if not all the people whose opinion I respect are in VIP, so that would be a good fix for me.

Well, OK, KristiD, Your points are well made AND highly valued.

 

My experience has been when an inch is NOT occupied in a common area, THEY (to be clear - the Snowflake And Buttercup Idiot Brigade Volunteer Forces) TAKE OVER the inch THEN FURTHER TAKE OVER a Personal Mile AND hold OTHERS responsible for maintaining the OTHER person's MILE in the favor of the Snowflake And Buttercup Idiot Brigade Volunteer Forces "whims" "screaming" BLOODY MURDER IF SOMEONE MAKES THEM FEEL "micro" "agressions".
