...for being very active on getting rid of negative threads on this forum.

It reestablishes that this forum is dedicated to positive thought and positive action.

If you want to write up negative stuff....go start your own forum and take your friends with you.

RON PAUL 2008....with or without the GOP!!

that's why I left my other forum home of the last few years. Too many negative waves.

A little more focus on moving forward, and a little less on random bawling and whining, is much appreciated.

if you go to this link

http://wonkette.com/345615/fox-still-hates-ron-paul-forum-declares-war-on-eeyore

you will see why the members of this forum need to be prudent in what they post here. For it can end up elsewhere and in a less than flattering light.

We can never have a desenting voice on these forums that would be horrible.
/sarcasm

Seriously though wtf. I know you mean well but Ron Paul = freedom which includes freedom of speech.

Perhaps you could make a "Negative Nancy" subforum and move the crap and trolls there.

Let them humiliate themselves.

quote editedNo we need as many views as possible.

But this is a forum to get Ron Paul elected president and making threads that have the focus on a particular member or members bickering and throwing barbs at each other and the campaign is counter to the forums intent.

There is a way to disagree, debate and bring up issues without being an ass and shifting focus on to oneself rather than the task at hand.

I feel that the moderators have been very patient with this.

I couldn't agree more. Give them their own subforum.

Yup, the mods do a good job, they let us discuss the issues and disagree... an exchange of ideas is so important.

I too like the negative nancy subforum idea. While I don't like the trolls spreading their pessimistic attitudes in here, I do support their freedom of speech.

Please don't bash me because I'm a newb... I'm simply exercising my freedom of speech as well. :)

Wow. I suggested that the "learn to speak Republican" thread appear on more than the Nevada board and in minutes it does! Responsive like champs!

quote editedThey did.

Lew said he did not write them.
Ron Paul said he did not write them.
Lew said a lot of the articles in the various newsletters over the many years were written by freelance writers.
The Editor in charge was fired.

So, I guess the decision is up to each of us, whether we will believe the man we have said we want to be our President and move on in doing everything we can to spread the message in an attempt to save our country. Or, whether we will join in with apparent actions to help it self-destruct.

Hot topics.

Hot Topics is very hard to find, so I will show you how. :)

You need to go to the RPF main page, and scroll all the way down to Liberty Forest. Then go into "General Polics & Other." Once there, you need to look at the very top for the sub-form "Hot Topics."

It took me a while to find it.

Once you are in Hot Topics, you will find all the threads that raise questions about Lew Rockwell, and the most of the threads that raise questions about how HQ is conducting the campaign.

One thing that I love about RPF, is the complete lack of censorship. It is not like, for example, Free Republic, where unwanted questions and commentary is banned outright.

We already have a thread for legitimate criticisms of HQ.

The other thread we need, since even every idiot, reactionary, baby and tool must have equal voice, is a thread called:

"The Whining, Bitching, Moaning, Crying, Conspiracy-Touting, Fear-Mongering Negativity and Doldrums Thread"

My bad, I forgot about Hot Topics, although my thread name may be more apt for a lot of the posts that go there.

Could not agree more, I am sick of these so-called supporters posting junk and taking away from the grassroots!

Or just use the forum jump at the bottom of each page to go directly to the forum you are looking for. :D

I've been suggesting a "Debbie Downer" forum for two days now. The poll proves it's popular - even the mods like the idea - but nothing's been done on it: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?t=90096
