It gets overshadowed by unnecessarily bringing up Obama and completely ignoring other points of view.

Depends on your definition of stupid. Being unable to type coherently, bringing up politics in threads where it isn't warranted, and not listening to differing opinions makes you stupid in my books.

Sucking up for my Mass/Mck tickets will not gain you favor.

Many of those that abuse the system with the vulgarity, slander and disrespect for others most likely have an interesting view on many of the thread topics and can add much to the posts by others. The ease of being an asshole, demonstrates their sick perverted alter ego, immaturity and lack of social skills is what is represented via their impertinent post. I’m sure not one of those OC members that have posted rude comments about me, my family or my appearance would have the courage to do so to my face. It easy to be a coward behind a key board …. That what running this site now cowards, perverted sick individual, social deviants and in the end this is what this site will be if not already.

Those of use that what a friendly and respected OC site demand a response Justincredible and Mods isn’t it about time you speak up with your views and opinions…

I'm not a Massillon or McKinley fan, so those tickets are worthless to me. (Go Bulldogs!)

Even though a live about a mile from the Cameo, I haven't been in there in probably a year or so. The burgers were still the same then.

I apologize for being busy the last few days and not checking in. I'm not sure how having an actual job and family that might keep me away for a few days at a time is a bad reflection on me, but think what you want. I also do not think this site is a reflection of my persona. This isn't a business. This isn't "my baby." This is a website I started 4 years ago when another website I was a member of decided to be a dick. It's a forum for people talk about whatever, nothing more, nothing less. I also don't think there are members chomping at the bit to recommend the site to their friends so long as I become a dictator-style owner and ban anyone that is considered a jerk. I also don't think there are a ton of people out there just waiting to be referred to an Ohio-based message board. I would love it if the site had a more active user base but I really think that ship has sailed. If you think you can salvage the site feel free to make me an offer on it, though. It still makes decent money for me, as-is, though not nearly as much as it did the first year.

Belly, I like you. I truly do. But what did you expect to happen when you started this thread? You started an attack thread on another member and got shit for it. I honestly hadn't seen RDI post much, especially nothing I would consider "rude", in quite a while. What prompted this thread? Did I miss something?

I think twitter and sites like reddit allow people throw out comments to the masses in a fairly unmoderated setting.

Might as well. We deserve it for, uh, what are we getting yelled at this time? Catering to some people or not catering to some people? I get confused about what I'm doing wrong from time to time, since (and this should be a surprise to everybody) usually when someone has a bitch about something and a lot of people comment on it, feelings on that matter are not unanimous among the entire userbase.

And then that happens, I just take the action I find personally amusing/entertaining. Because, to enter con-alma robot territory here, I-like-to-be-entertained-and-will-take-the-appropriate-action-to-entertain-myself-as-I-see-fit.

Belly, I like you. I truly do. But what did you expect to happen when you started this thread? As unconventional as it was I got the response that was expected and predictable. Bang your daughter, fuck off, did your mom. Which is meaningless, immature and I’ve been told to do worse. This type OC member on going vulgarity by a few is why this site has lost it appeal to present members and potential new members.

You started an attack thread on another member and got shit for it. I started a threat that would get a rise from those that are the problem, sometimes the best bail is the predator demeanor.


I honestly hadn't seen RDI post much, especially nothing I would consider "rude", in quite a while. Really! This is not about RDI this is about a site that many other members wish to communicate, share and voice opinions without inadvertent slander and derogation.



What prompted this thread? What does it matter “I really think that ship has sailed.” That pretty much explains what has happen.


Did I miss something? Only the vision

Notice communication and opinion voiced without ... all the immaturity and prevertion comments
