Trumptards are destroying patnet

Ironman says

Dan8267 says

Freedom of speech goes both ways. It means that a willing audience can hear ideas they want to hear, but that also means that no person should be allowed to prevent a willing audience from hearing those ideas.

And then we have this:

Dan8267 is banning: Bellingham Bill BlueSardine Blurtman bob2356 CBOEtrader errc FortWayne GONE Heraclitusstudent indigenous Ironman lostand confused marcus No news is good news NuttBoxer P N Dr Lo R Paralithodes PeopleUnited Quigley Rashomon Strategist Straw Man Tenpoundbass The Original Bankster

Seems like freedom of speech only goes one way with Dan.

LOL. Commie Dan and Pink Pussy are not much different. Neither of them can handle facts that prove them wrong.
But you got to admit, some of their comments are extremely entertaining.

Strategist says

Commie Dan and Pink Pussy

So you are saying they are interchangeable? Not sure who pink pussy is but I have an idea who you are speaking about.

Patrick what does the rating #'s on the left mean and how do they work?

Off topic but since I got you here...
Your front page real estate doesn't have room for 4 small jump links like to:
real estate, politics, investing ?.... What happened to those?
I should ban your ass... lol

No.
Dan is interchangeable with rin. ( alt accounts )
i was banned by both within an hour's time.
Yesterday, I had several posts 'ad hominem' by both within 7 minutes time.
Both identities are infatuated with naked pictures
Do the math.

If I ban, would it hide their posts? I don't dislike Rin, he's all right, it's just I really want to avoid pornographic material he occasionally posts.

Actually freedom of speech goes both ways. You can say what you want, but you cannot disrupt other people's speech.

Sorry about triggering you piggy, but get over it.

Ironman says

Says the guy who posts pictures of old, fat naked guys and multiple pictures of sex with animals and goats..

We all know that's why you come here.

Strategist says

Show one time you've done that.

BlueSardine says

Dan is interchangeable with rin.

I'll take that as a compliment as Rin is a far better person than you. Also, his ban list is basically a list of trolls on the site.

It's amazing how delusional the trolls on this site are. They actually think they win arguments by being annoying little pricks as if their debunked lies and lame putdowns actually convince normal people.

I challenge any of those trolls bitching on this site to a real debate. None of you have ever been even a slight challenge, but lets demonstrate how much you actually suck at persuading people. Here are the rules of the real debate.
1. Patrick moderates and has unilateral rulings on procedures.
2. Patrick chooses three judges from academia with a background in debate.
3. Majority rule of the three judges determines the victor.

Climate change is a hot button topic that you all deny, so let's use that as the resolution. Resolved: Man-made climate change is real. I'll take the affirmative. You trolls keep saying that you "win" at disproving man-made climate change. Here's your chance to test that hypothesis.

Here's my hypothesis. None of you pussies will have the balls to accept this challenge.

Dan8267 says

Ultimately free speech is about expressing ideas, not forcing them onto others or shouting down other ideas or presenting misinformation in terms of incorrect "facts" or straw men. Those things actually detract from free speech.

you see disagreements as shouting down. You are so confused Dan, I genuinely feel bad for you.

FortWayne says

No, banning doesn't hide anything, just prevents future comments on your posts.

I made the home page images much smaller, so hopefully that makes them less of a problem.

BlueSardine says

Dan is interchangeable with rin. ( alt accounts )

No, I'm pretty sure they are different people.

The rating numbers are simply the like/dislike for posts in a different format. The number is likes - dislikes.

Should I keep those links to real estate, politics, investing? I thought they make the header look a little cluttered.

You could indeed ban me. I'm just an ordinary user most of the time. Though I do have access to the database and source code, so I have superpowers if I need them.

Rin is a prostitute connoisseur. I don't have the street smarts to even know how to get a prostitute or weed. EBay?

Rin and I also disagree on various social issues.
1. Are there unicorns? I say yes, Taylor Swift. Rin says no.
2. Sex bots. Rin says yes. I say it's not a real woman.
3. Breast implants. Rin approves. I say reality is sexy, and breast implants are fake just like sex bots.

Of course, you never seen Rin and I fighting because Rin isn't a piece of shit loser with zero emotional maturity. However, those he has banned fit that bill perfectly.

There's an old saying. Birds of a feather flock together. You can see this in the list of trolls. They all have a spiteful nature and most of them are right wing conservative nutjobs.

Like heat vision? Cause that would be awesome.

The ratings on the side make it look tacky to me and redundant, To me it would be more efficient if the score of all likes and dislikes were
at the top of the original posting so if there were 10 likes anf 50 dislikes it shows a overall consensus.
Definitely keep a few jump links at the top. You could put a few in the frame you have active comments new private using a distinct separator.
The banning is hilarious in general to me, definitely entertaining. I had 1 banned and decided to un-ban them for GP...

This is where I think some creativity is necessary. I've always wanted to try a place where a user was blocked from commenting if he/she refused to answer a direct question. (meaning without a false premise) I know it's going to take some subjectivity to implement but I don't think it's a bad thing.

You took the words right out of my mouth

Ironman says

That's really funny. You challenge people to debate, but these people who would debate you and blow your narrative away are being banned from your threads:

The thread can be opened by Patrick. He'd be the moderator. Are you really not intelligent enough to realize this? Nothing prevents the debate. How about you man up and accept the challenge instead of running away as usual.

#rechargeableBatteriesDumbass

Hm. There are about as many people on Dan's banned list whose company I wouldn't mind being in, as there are not on the list.

Wow dan banned me lol? He's really that butt hurt about me factually stating that his insults and jokes are horrible

errc says

Actually I banned you because I was tired of us butting heads. I recently decided to take a new approach to PatNet of just not dealing with assholes. You fell into that category for reasons you just demonstrated with your post. I'll debate you anytime if you want, but I'm not going to waste my time on you in general. Be a better person and I'll change my mind.

rando says

So Ironman is deleted, along with all his posts and comments (I have backups). And he's banned by IP.

Come on, everybody. Make Patrick's announcement the most liked post ever!

"Yes son, today is the day. That's right. May 9th is the day Ironman was deleted."

He'll be back

With Piggy no longer on Patnet, I just went long goat feed and anal lube.

Dan8267 says

I suppose that is no longer insulting another user, so OK.

That was just investment advice.

Yes, I was counting on that loophole.

I thought he forgot to say "Alexa" before adding items to his shopping cart

errc says

He'll be back

I'd guess within a couple months.

errc says

He'll be back

That was one reason I never banned him before. It's essentially impossible to block any one person who is willing to re-register and use different devices from different locations.

But he might be easily recognized by his comments.

That and so long as he doesn't already have some aliases stashed, his reincarnate born on date

errc says

Poobah, put the Donate tab back up in the header!

OK, done!

Hey Ironman, if you read this, go check witopia :))

Lol, we will still know him by his comments.

Anyway, I never quite got the idea of giving up your identity to a VPN provider who will hide your identity only as long as it's convenient/profitable for him.
