Please give me my armband and promptly add me to your cadre of "trolls". Chances are, you're not going to like what you're going to read.
Please post a proper intro as per the forum rules here: http://forum.freekeene.com/index.php?topic=1127.0
Welcome.
Dissent is welcome, but if you are here to troll or only be negative, you'll end up in the troll area.
Look. If you're here to have a conversation and express genuine issues you have with whatever viewpoints, tactics, etc. that's awesome. If you want to come here specifically to USE the resources of Free Keene and the platform for communication here to work counter to the goals of Free Keene, for the life of me, I can't understand why anyone expects that to be accommodated. If that's what you want to do, do it, but do it on your own forum. Spend a lot of your own effort to promote and build up traffic to your site to achieve YOUR goal which runs counter to ours.
For instance, if what you intend to do is not so much to have a genuine conversation with us but rather hope to intercept anyone who comes here to talk shit about Free Keene, then no, you're not going to be handed the microphone. Go get your own soapbox.
I guess I understand why people opposed to private property would expect this privately-sponsored space to be treated as if it were public property where everyone must be provided access to do whatever they want and it must be subject to the perils of the tragedy of the commons.
I love how the trolls expect Ian to let them ride his coattails while they're stabbing him in the back.

Thanks Dalebert.
I think we should let assholes like this post. It gets to be entertaining at times and I can't imagine that anyone here for good reasons would be swayed by the words of a person trying to start shit regularly. The worst they are doing is pissing people off. Their nay saying might even get others too look into shit a little more closely at issues than they would before.
Cheers to the dissenters! Now go join your friends in the dissenters part of the forum.

You make it sound like we like we are supposed to give a shit about someone posting something some of us don't agree with. Don't feel bad. I say shit people don't like, as well. We all do. In the meantime, post your douche bag comments somewhere else.
He'll be allowed to post, just as soon as he posts a proper intro. 'Til then, he can only read.

Most of that was meant as sarcastic.
I still find most of that shit entertaining, though. I can't help but laugh at whine asses that get pissy because they can only bitch and complain about people that they believe to be below themselves. I'm still pretty new to computers and the internet, comparatively, and get my online kicks out of this kind of bullshit.
It amazes me that the crazies are happily typing away just the same, in the rubber room they are relegated to.
On the other hand Trollville has been the liveliest place on the forum in the past few days. Can't argue with that! 8)
Told you it was entertaining! ;D
