Funny story - it took SIX years to get my first one, and only because I had a companion who knew me from another board, who resented me moderating him. It's fine, we are good frenemies, but he reported me so much that I got my first point in October 2007. My second one took TEN years to show up. After that, Charles was very aggressive about minor things called 'topic bumping' 'thread jacking' and use of quotes (Who knows why? He and I moderated together and had looong topics via chat but he soured on me is my best guess.) for which I got six warnings from 2017 to 2020. Really I would protest all of these and if Greg removed them as a 20th anniversary present that would be nice. @Greg ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWENTY YEARS TODAY ! Time well spent ! Congratulations to the shadow man celebrating 20 years on this political forum! Your ability to navigate through the turbulent waters of political discourse is akin to the laws of physics. Just like an expert in Newton's laws, you've shown an impressive ability to remain balanced amidst opposing forces. Many more!

The thing is - the trolls and conspiracy frogs are actually more correct than they themselves realize. But the source of the conspiracies isn't WEF or SHADO or KAOS ... it's the dollars in their pockets. Make money illegal, and move to the Star Trek economy and your problems will disappear my friends.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and 1 more thing, you remind me of a famous saying inside top law enforcement circles in the US, I heard once somewhere mentioned: "If you run with wolves, better not trip" 😎 and you are one political wolf, is my estimation.
