Talkback is Fluff.

Recommended Posts

So after seeing the trend of locked and deleted threads I thought I'd comment on it.

The whole of talkback is Fluff. Sure, it's entertaining but those placed in charge of what is worthy and what's not have me confused.

I understand that this is NOT by any means a "free" expresion of peoples views, but when something doesn't seem to violate the owners established policys (see: Forum Rules) and is locked and deleted vs. something like I'm getting shitfaced . . . doesn't fall under the gun, it makes me wonder.

To jraf:

1) I have no idea what Chopin was thinking.

2) I imagine Einstine had many sleepless nights.

3) A 9th grade science text has that answer.

JP.. you're such a rabble rouser!!


As for Jraf: sometimes ya gotta know when it's time to leave well enough alone. I didn't see the original thread that started it, but it didn't sound to be in the best of taste, especially when the realization that a lot of people feed the troll. That probably would've been time to grin n bare it. From what I saw (rubbernecking mind you) he was given a few warnings.

Nathan was another who didn't know when to quit and found himself in lots of trouble because of it.

Wasn't really the intent, but I like the title.

Point is I don't bitch about the things I see posted and don't like, or think are worthless. And so far I've seen nothing to violate the established rules. Now if the rules change......

He can't reply as he is banned now for a bit..



I thought as much. Shame. While I don't know him, I apreciate "different" people, as they lend spice and coloring to the bland flavor life serves up.

Where does he jump?

Honestly, I'd say that jraf pretty blatantly violated the rules. Calling someone a "dope" _is_ a personal attack. Personal attacks on moderators count, too, you know. But re-posting the attack after it was removed? That's really just asking to be banned.

Just my two cents.

True, I agree with you. I meant the post not to be specificaly about jraf, although my coments about his Beeeer...first locked post of mine post in which I can find no reference to the word "dope".

Overall I think the moderators do an excelent job of moderating this board and each other, however I have seen some instances of heavy handedness and personal agendas/belifes creep in to that "moderation". It's a job I don't envy.

Again, who am I to complain. It's not a "Free" site.

What does "Fluff" mean? (seriously)

As is fluffy not stuffy? (non-seriously)

While I'm at it..what does or why do people say..He's talking "smack"?
To me smack meant "heroin"
I know it's another word for 'shit' but where does smack come from?

And what's the "schnizzle" stuff?
I heard someone talking like that in the men's room while I was takin a 'whizzle!

Okay, JP. . .gotta luv ya. . .but in all honesty. . .he really was asking for trouble. . .

I had a post deleted because I was offering the skydiving community a chance to apply for a Job that is available at my work. . .it was advertisement and therefore breaking the rules, so I understood when they let me know. . .no biggie. . .

He'll be back. . .and then we can all cheer him on. . .
Personally, I like the off color people myself. . .makes me laugh. . .

I was thinking that the meaning of the thread was that Talkback gets you fluffed (ala fluff girls)....Considering all the NSFW pics and boobie talk, I it's pretty much right on the money
