Quite likely that a good few people here 'need help' and are probably receiving help. That's no reason for you or anyone else to deliberately try to prod at other peoples' sensitivities. It might be that the phrase 'neuro-diverse' is a bit too woke for your tastes, but whatever - we need to cater for all personality types here.
If Mako had been moderating this thread, how many people would have been sandboxed?

Which is why I wrote this previously
"Sh!t man, I'm starting to feel really sorry for you. In all seriousness. What sort of horrific life events have happened, that require such an elaborate, impenetrable alternate reality wall to be constructed around you? No matter what is written or done, it's completely and totally rejected in favour of your own little version of reality. And it's not just this thread, or just me that's noticed the trail of doubt and outright rejection for alternate viewpoints that seems to follow you around the site. Seriously, it doesn't hurt to talk to someone, get some help for whatever it is that's winding you up into knots, and lashing out at everyone."
I thought that was quite sensitive, & on point.

And my reply is the same in that all your post does is provide more evidence supporting the points and assumptions I made about you 😃
You then replied saying I need help, which is your opinion to have, and I disagreed.
Until you post something that proves the assumptions I made about you are not true, which you still haven't done, nothing will change 🙂
You will just keep going round in circles posting your opinions about me and I will keep replying that all your posts do are prove the points and assumptions I made earlier and nothing will change until you prove my assumptions are not true 😎 😊
-
I offered to provide the evidence, you declined. Because it obviously threatens the little fantasy world that you've so carefully constructed around you. Honestly, you really really need to go talk to someone a bit qualified. For your own good.
-
What you offered was garbage and a total waste of time because it would not have proved anything 🤣 because there is no way to verify who would have bought the items or who took the picture of them and the receipt etc etc etc.
Anybody who read your childish test could go out and buy the items for you, take a pic of them and the receipt and then give it to you to post here as you suggested. I don't know what you look like so a picture of anybody with the 3 items and receipt proves zero 😄
That stupid test would have only provided more proof supporting the points and assumptions I posted about you earlier.
You are going round in circles posting your opinions about me and I will keep replying that all your posts do are prove the points and assumptions I made earlier and nothing will change until you prove my assumptions are not true 😎 😊

It seems to me that you are going round in circles, and not just with this user. But I suppose it keeps you at the top of the list of number of postings, which appears to be your main target and only justification.
I would prefer it, however, if you would tone down your language and not concentrate on antagonising and insulting your opponents.
Many thanks!

For people not in the states, perhaps some clarification is in order. Bug Light recently semi-partnered with a guy who is transitioning and is fairly popular documenting his journey in the trans community. They gave him one commemorative can of beer. As you might be able to guess, the snowflake ever trumpers and MAGA community lost their collective minds, and have been boycotting the beer, as well as posting Tik Toks of them running over cases of beer with their lifted bro-dozers. It would be comedy if it weren't so sad. So when someone suggests a Bud Light, it is no longer about the beer.
Speaking of beer. I have heard there are vacation junkets from the UK coming to our east coast just for the purpose of visiting our tap rooms. Their are great tap rooms all over the entire country. The days of America being the crap beer capitol of the world are well behind us.

No need for clarification, 'merican news stories in all flavors have been global for many years.
The internet took care of that. -
Maybe should just rename this thread the “Off Topic Forum” and it can go on forever….
-
I may have missed it,but you seem to not have replied to my question about the ‘n word ‘
-
Well, some were responding as if I was actually considering drinking a Bud Light, which put me into defcon 7.
-
OOOOooohhh !!!
This is a "fresh" and completely new point of view!!Mine the bold recaps
Hopefully,
nobody is driving on the right side of the road with the right side of the brain.( hmm... what about Brittiiiss people 🙄 )
-
Apparently 76 countries world wide drive on the left. Canada changed sides - which is brave of them!
-
Yes, I know that Mac, but isn’t it best to let folk have a normal beer discussion without highlighting that… it may have been a reference to a silly (not very important) news story.
oh... DEFCON is always written in capital letters.
Been there, done that !lol

Then maybe you need help. A social skills coach would be a possibility. Reads to me like a back-handed way of insulting someone. If you are really concerned about the mental health of another party what you don't is act as amateur psychiatrist on a public forum. Really all you're doing there is saying 'you're crazy nuts', just wrapping it up in what you think is more acceptable language and putting on a pretence of being concerned, when I'm guessing you're anything but. Or friend Mako would certainly have pulled that post and given you a warning if it had been brought to his attention - or I don't know my Mako.

One positive about a new forum, rising primarily from the ashes, or membership, of another forum is that the organizers are already overwhelmingly aware of what was going on with the other site(s). They are already aware of malcontents, complainers, bullies and inappropriate posters/members. I'm confident that Bob, Alan, et al., will see that appropriate moderation is administered ... moderately. Additionally, all the other 99.9% of visitors and newly registered, also know the pre-existing problem-children. I have no problem with anyone in need of "parenting" to be handed down timeouts of varying lengths, up to and including permanent bans. No one has a right to anything on a private platform - but participate in accordance within established mores. The rules, and subsequent enforcement of those rules, are the purview of those who write the rules.
-
Reminds me of:
-
Maybe Alan should rename the "Open Talk" forum the "Open Brawl Forum" an make it a rules-free fight club for those who just want to let go of some steam off.
As a side note, I believe there is no point in highlighting the latest posts on the front page, I see "mako" or "triangle of exposure" every time I sign in for the last 2 weeks.
