Broker Some Peace..Captain Lemming, Pitpete, Ikestops85..help me.

[whatever]

....says the guy who just joined this message board on 9/4/19.

See you're crying about stuff you do.
So because I joined recently you are more of a fan than me....... classic.

I just think this board has degenerated down to a point that a lot of posters don't find this a good place to come. With that said, I want input from all the regular guys ( Ow Wow, Captain Lemming, Northern_Blitz, Pitpete, Ikestops85, etc.etc.) on what we can do to stop the venom going back and forth from the Tomlin believers and the Tomlin non-believers.

Each side isn't going to change the opinion on the other side. So, can't each side just say what they wish and all parties respect each others opinions? After all, time bears witness and determines the final decisions on all things.

Isn't there some way all the adults just agree to disagree but respect the others opinion?
Is what I'm proposing too much? Is it possible?

This is the only Steeler poster room that I go to that has such disdain in it. All the others are civil; sure people disagree but no one takes things personal like this poster room does.

I very much want to hear your input in hopes to reach an agreement of civility and accord. I"m trying to extend an olive branch; meet me half way please.

Any thoughts of your own on how to improve the dialogue on the site?

[Steel Maniac]

Well, I'm baffled on why some can't allow others to have their own opinions. So I'm trying to solicit input to form some type of foundation that we all can live with. That's why I started this thread.

That's why I"m reaching out to everybody.

[Oh wow]

Northern hit on all points

I will also add if someone post as much as we do they can’t use time as an excuse for not being able to dig for the post they are accused of misquoting.

Why wouldn’t you want to prove they were wrong by providing a link?

But the tons and tons of post that we all do...............who has the time to remember exactly when someone said something 4-6 months prior? I got a life; I don't have the time to look for something like that. My thoughts are grown ups should be grown enough to own what they say.

But with that said, does that Ruth thing really bother you and North that much?? Really?? It wasn't a big deal to me and I was surprised frankly when he went ape s**t over it.

When did this place get so f’n weird?

[pittpete]

Im a diehard Steelers fan
When they lose i hurt
When they win i rejoice
When we lose i hate Tomlin
When we win i love Tomlin
When i see a weakness on our team i post about it and use facts to back up my posts
If people dont like it, i could care less.
GO STEELERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S. ---If we lose tonight we're done...

I've compiled a secret list of suspected fake Steelers fans here. Their handles will be revealed before we commence The Great Purge.

You can have your opinion nobody is stopping you from having your opinion, if you don't want it challenged then don't post it on an internet forum.

You make a claim on what a poster said without backing it up. The poster denies it and you insinuate that he is a liar. You don't do that without providing proof. If you don't have the proof then don't say it. To get the proof go to advanced seach by clicking on the magnifying glass and putting in "Conner" as the keyword and "RuthlessBurgher" as the user name. It will return you every post that Ruthless posted with Conner. Then you go through it and find what you are looking for. Do that BEFORE you make an arse of yourself.

Just a suggestion.

hawaiian, again, I didn't think that much of it. I brought it up and he went ballistic about it.

Ikestop, I hear what your saying. But can you please explain to me why this was such a big deal?

My guess is that it comes down to intellectual honesty.
