It's high time to get all this shit off the front page. JFC. Both sides need a retard siberia. Call it whatever you want. I can't be the only one tilted as fuck about all the political garbage, can I?

Only a communist would say that
What's next? Should all the Jews have their own forum too? Huh?
They already do:

I agree but PFA would be dead without Trump.
RIP
Just name it retard Siberia or the carter. Same thing.
I voted no for now. In a month, I might vote yes.
Right now, we’d have a front page with threads about Saran Wrap, good thread and I agree it sucks, but also pet food recall, screech, flashlights.
I mean almost everything else has some political angle besides the long running Musk and sports betting threads which are active. It’s a political site for the most part now, or at least until Trump leaves. Even then, it will be about him most likely.
We are old and boring now. I also forget the subforums exist. I wander in every few months and find some debate that’s already been going on for 3 months. I wish it would all just be this forum, so I don’t miss interesting threads.
odds of druff diluting his brand by putting the breaks on this tardalanche?

he would never do that to his very good in real life friend desertrunner.
You're looking for a haystack in a pile of needles at this point. I'd like to introduce you to a concept called signal to noise ratio. It's extremely low, and honestly site=joke these days. 27 threads on the front page can immediately be classified as 'political' just based on title alone. That doesn't count the number of threads that are being derailed every day. Posters I used to like and respect have turned into fanatical fucking lunatics who go around every thread attacking other posters who I used to like and respect. Maybe you're right, I'm too old and boring. I don't come here for a political roundtable where far left and far right lunatics are attacking each other endlessly in every thread and every post.
Pretty much fuck you all. Plus I'm out of rep.
7-8 years ago the front page was littered with people posting sports wagering calls. Having experienced this at another forum I frequented I created the “official PFA wagering thread” which still lives on today and is the #2 Thread of all time behind the Trump one. It has helped the constant new threads on sports betting and also helps because people can talk about ideas/theories of semi successful strategies that wouldn’t apply When someone creates a “team X is a lock” thread.
I think we can use that here for the politics.
The Trump thread was great because everyone just piled in there. We were OK still when we added the COVId thread which turned political along the way. Now we have 15 different variants of the same bullshit.
I’m sure Druff doesn’t want to be heavy handed on it but it would be helpful to only have 2-3 threads on politics.
Druff can make use of his amazing computer programming skills to make it so.
Me- Still have subject matter consolidation- Instead of 5 Trump threads, marrow them down to Trump and the current topic. People get lost in the massive threads.
Also, if Druff would start enforcing the posted house rules here, it would help.
Should have a Snide Cunts forum for PLOP Pedotine sloppy and Thomas .
Add- I always have said that adding more to something doesnt always fix it, rather best to manage it on the inside instead. Take for example the state of California and the residents who want to start the new state of Jefferson to escape the corruption. Starting more government will only make more corruption, not fix it. Druff needs to fix the current issues inside the current forum instead of adding to it. Cut out the cancer now, instead of expanding the body hoping to escape it.
Perhaps we also need a subforum for
"Druff's real life friends he has met IRL who he won't ban or post restrict even though they don't fit in at PFA at all and we lose forum regulars due to this"
The easiest way to fix this problem is for Druff to charge the Political posters like Sonatine and Walter 3x what he charges the rest of us.
I actually did something like this on Vegascasinotalk.
It stopped the political hijacking mostly, but also deadened the main forum.
I'll consider doing something though.
Honestly, as much as I also engage in the political idioticry, even I admit that it has infected the main forum way too much.
What to do about it isn't quite so simple.
Daly had a good idea on P1. Maybe an official LEFT attack thread and an official RIGHT attack thread, and just train the shit-throwing monkeys to throw at each other in those instead of all over the board? I don't know what the answer is but I can't be the only one who no longer enjoys their PFA browse.
Or how about this? Since politics is always changing based on the current topics in the news, how about one new thread a week, ***OFFICIAL**** And all that, and if you want to throw shit, do it there. Then create a subforum where they're moved to at the end of the week when a new one is made? I know it's probably extra work for you, but it might help? Just tossin out ideas, I don't know what the answer is.
