    I understand, but it seems implied by this statement:
    Bluke certainly takes his fair share of shots at liberals. Heck, I do too. He has also been very hard on Trump at times, including recently. I just dont think true "maga" types are ever hard on Trump.

    It's not always about what you post, but rather how you do it and what rules you follow while doing so.

    Sounds like @G8trGr8t got the ban hammer.

    Appreciate it. My point is then, that admin does have powers and reasons above what a moderator does. I have the ability to change a thread title, but never have ..except if it is a clear violation of rules maybe once or twice.

    But admin have a bigger role in that they have been asked and in turn have asked us to try and calm the rhetoric. A noble effort imo.

    But regardless the situation mentioned above was no result of any of that.

    We do have a few posters that come back tine and time again, almost with a sort of board death wish so to speak.

    We have a couple currently sidelined posters (from both sides) who just keep doing it.

    @mdgator05 , let me add an example.
    You are a left leaning poster, but when I click on your profile it shows 0 warning points. So the narrative that this stuff is handed out based on leaning is just false. (Not saying that is your position, but it has been said)

    Meanwhile, I can click on other posters who post just as frequently and see 12-15 warning points. Which surpasses multiple times the threshold before a timeout occurs.

    So if a frequent poster with strong opinions (like you) can navigate the board without a scratch, why is it that others seem to look like they climbed barbed wire and withstood cannon fire to post here?

    It's not what you believe or say .. it's simply how you do it.
