Thread: Attention Displaced Rand Fans from the DP

    Attention Displaced Rand Fans from the DP

    I am organizing this post for those over at the DP who would like connect. Election time is just around the corner and we will no longer be able to show support for our guy at the DP if he runs for POTUS. I would love to be able to stay in contact with y'all so please post here if you are a displaced Rand fan over at the DP. It would be helpful if you post your DP username so we all know who you are. I am still Unknownuser.

    Please, do not use this post as a trashing site for Mr. Nystrom. Though we may not agree with him, we must respect his wishes to not turn his site into a Rand hub when election season comes around. It is clear that Mr. Nystrom has a different vision for the DP and will be going in another direction than what we may wish to go.

    However, come election time...let's get this place hopp'n and party like its 1999! Looking forward to seeing ya'll on the campaign trail!

    ***edit***

    Just want to remind everyone and ask you kindly to keep it classy when responding to this post. I did not write this post to create any sort of cross over wars. I have nothing but LOVE for Mike and the DP.

    Thanks again for the warm welcomes! Looking forward to seeing y'all on the campaign trails! Peace out.

    The site owner does not want it to become "the Daily Rand" his words. So organizing and pushing for Rand is frowned upon.
    They call those who support Rand "Rah Rah Randers" Lol. It's like Paultard, but different (supposedly)

    It's called the Daily PAUL. Is Rand not a Paul?

    Good grief. It's this kind of division of the liberty movement that drives me bonkers.

    Honestly...it was lazyness. Trying to keep up with two forums seemed like a big task. I chose DP because of the format. It seems to be a bit more user friendly.

    What a joke. Perfect example of people who are in this for their own self esteem and not to advance liberty.

    you mean we should trash nystrom in another occasion, but we have more important tasks at hand, that i agree. respect to his decisions? to the extent of non violence, ya, in context of respectability? forget it. there was a bit of an intimidation technique over there at dp so some users develop stockholm syndrome, you can forget that here and call it spades as you see it. this site has like 10% the degree of modding compared to dp and we have seen the worst effect of it, so i might as well take use of that as well

    I know, but it ain't my site. I think Nystrom is basically done with politics. He wants the DP to become more of a blog I guess.

    Mr. Nystrom has a different vision for his site and I respect that. But I don't plan on missing out on the party all because one guy.

    I'm trying to figure out why Daily Paul can't be associated with Rand, it's his son, he's literally building on what his dad did for all of us. It kinda seems a little $#@!ed up, but more power to him. Welcome to the site!

    Yes Ma'am, this is the place to be now. But I will be keeping my account over there. I hope I can continue to post on Federal, State and local candidates. That's what it's about. RPF For the WIN!

    Bryan runs a great site here, wonderful guy, I am not just saying that.

    DP has always had users that skew further "left" than rpfs. Rand has not used the same rhetoric his dad used that appeals to lefties. A lot of it has do with Rand trying to work with and grow the GOP; they resent that. It is what it is, there is plenty of internet for all of us.

    Welcome aboard OP.

    A lot of the main posters there don't even vote anymore, Ignore the Gov and it will go away they seem to think. The Ostrich strategy.

    how the world works

    someone or some site has to stir things up in a major way otherwise nothing will happen.. if no one stirs things up there won't be a 'great compromiser' to even ascend.. everybody can't just be a leader and claim himself to be above the crowd and transcend everything without another group first stirring things up, it's like rand coming after ron's work, you have libertarian sites so far kicking and banning people according to site owner's dislikes, but not a site that truly aims to ban trolls that obviously have a thing for rand and aren't helping us win elections. we haven't had a campaign oriented site that's willing to stir things up yet, every other $#@! variety out there we have had, not sure why no one wants to stick up for rand and the real seriousness of our work here which is elections. when it comes to that, everyone backs up and throws their hand in the air 'oooh we're better than that' such pretentious hypocrites.. other sites ban people to owner's liking, we can't do that to rand election's liking here? talk about head in the cloud.. how about let's stir things up in the positive direction for once and let latter comers worry about being the 'great compromiser'? you're not looking good in any regards until someone is willing to do the dirty work to contrast you. why don't we be the first and push and the envelope? what are we so afraid of? people have said rand has a shot for years and now it's more and more obvious, and we keep still dragging our feet while time runs short, it's like we really think changing policies 12 months up to an election does anything

    Thanks! The format will take a little getting used to but "it's all good in the hood".

    I'd be willing to bet that when election time comes around there will be a site for Rand. Or maybe you could create one.

    Uhm, so all that to complain that rpfs doesn't ban enough people? Meh.

    That site creeps me out. Seriously. I went over there to find the post that precipitated this, and wish I hadn't. All I can say is that is the first time I've ever heard someone accuse Rand of having cold dead eyes and living out his immaturity on a national stage. Weird, and sad.

    Bryan is working on a new set of guidelines and also will now have the ability to ban people from specific forums, so that will help keep the tensions down... and the focus on supporting Rand in his forum.
