It's funny how the right wing nutcases and the media always try to pretend they are rational, and have reasonable arguments stemming from actual outrage related to specific issues... Until the moment THEY COMPLETELY LOSE IT and reveal their nature and start spewing racist illogical rhetoric and a divisive and angry fear driven political agenda...

Whatever...

bRink care to provide some instance of empirical evidence to back up your claim?

Seems to me this is a pretty common thing among the multiCULTies, i.e. the Pot calling the Kettle black...

Turn on fox news...

If it's not obvious, then you probably don't want to see with eyes unclouded...

Empirical evidence not being referenced here.

For the Record I am extremely skeptical of Fox News, Glenn Beck included of course.

Limbaugh is a hypocritical windbag.

The only reason I don't use those handles anymore is my previous roommate hijacked my computer when I was drunk and posted a bunch of shit all over the internet (mostly with fantasies of me dying in them)...

This board in particular thought it was all bullshit and was pretty condescending over the whole affair. So, I kind of just gave up with those usernames.

two trolls can't occupy the same thread at the same time. it's against the laws of physics.

Isn't hemophilia found in people that have been inbred? Aren't there studies out there that disprove Darwin's argument? Doesn't the rate of stillborns go up in communities that actively practice inbreeding?

I don't mind divergent opinions as long as they are intelligent and thoughtful. What has been going on here in recent weeks is not thoughtful OR intelligent... it's just a plain flame war. What's really sad is this site is/was used as an honest to God resource for many. Paul, Alex and the rest of the poster spent many hours building up this websites reputation. It received lots of money from people to advertise their services, products, etc. but now that the number of flamers and trolls has gone up in recent weeks/months I fear these people who basically pay the bills will pull their money out of this project because it's no longer worthwhile. Thanks kids for ruining a great resource.

This all would be easily solved with an ignore button. whenever the next archinect version comes out... i know paul's busy.
that way things could stay unmoderated and people could just choose what they want to listen to...as it is archinect is pretty unreadable at the moment.

this forum has a long history of people posting foolishness. however, it does seem that recently there has been more people complaining about others posting foolishness.

is it happy hour yet? it's got to be five o'clock somewhere...

Mother of god this place sucks.


And oe... do you really have to reaffirm this after you got schooled in the other thread?


Look man, Im sorry you wasted an hour copypasting everything Ive ever written on archinect, but I really wasnt bothered by anything you had to say about it. Some of us have shit to do. Im well aware you and piggy are different people. Whether theres 2 or 4 of you doesnt really concern me. Im just saying, if youre spending your time dreaming up ways to piss people off on the internet you need a fucking hobby.

My theory is that some of the frequent posters in this forum are probably the same climate "scientists" that contributed to the "gloabl warming" hoax.

The lack of viable "connective tissue" to the propositions that are made are enough to convince me that there really isn't a shred of evidence to back up the same propositions.

Just a lot of houses of cards have been built up on sandy foundations of emotional wishy washy HOPE and CHANGE.

Just because you want something to be true doesn't mean it is.

Also just because someone spends a relatively outrageous amount of time to dig up some photograph of one of the posters her is further evidence that many of the propositions on the forum simply can not be taken too seriously.

For the Record I have lost some weight since that photograph was taken.

look. it might have taken me every possible minute of my nights and weekends to find that pic, but in the end it was worth it, unless what you say is true and you have lost weight, then in that case I just wasted all my free time damn it.

unicorn, yeah i meant to post something when you said that about your roommate over at TC.

Sounds like an asshole.

archinect is sure going downhill quickly it seems


if you are concerned about "schooling" someone with a post, or anything like that, then it seems you really need to find something better to do with your time

marm, totally agree. it seems like just a year or two ago this fourm still had it's integrity, and I always found it curious that the crappiest aspects of the internet hadn't caught up to it. it seems like now they have.

marmkid

i'd say the integrity is still there, just that some times things get completely derailed off topic to the point where whole threads are over before they even begin


the amount of users is probably growing at a high rate, so there are just that many more people here posting
It's bound to happen that some aren't here for actual discussion, just here to "school" us

Yeah... Sorry... I probably contributed to the idiotic squabbling... Got a little worked up and carried away yesterday... Just to clarify for those who are wondering where this thread is coming from, there was a thread yesterday which was subsequently deleted by the moderators which contained racist language and comments which offended people on this forum, myself included... It's not just the political nature of the posts, it's the use of racial slurs or rhetoric.

Sorry, Piggy, Archinect Technician, didn't mean to rail on you guys so much yesterday... I appreciate some of your contributions to the forum, but please try to tone down the personal attacks or racist language. I fully appreciate that the forum needs to remain open to diverse political points of view, and should not marginalize based on politics, but realize that there are some kinds of rhetoric that are not generally acceptable by our society and most settings, regardless of political affiliation...

IMHO posts containing racist or sexist language or discriminatory attacks targeting individuals or groups should be deleted. This would be to the benefit of this forum... I think there are certain areas where deleting inappropriate comments should be happen: where content promotes hate or discrimination, or pornographic or obscene content, or spam, as there is a legal basis for filtering against hate speach because if it causes groups based on race, creed, or religion to be marginalized, and obscenities and pornography also. If the forum wants to remain a useful and open forum, that kind of content should be filtered for both legal reasons and relevance to the forum... It doesn't contribute to anything and it actually alienates most people on the forums. It only promotes the forum going to the gutter...

I've concluded that Architecture, in general, is overrun with a bunch of idiots and freaks.

being an idiot is fine
being a freak is fine
being a jerk is even fine

racist/ sexist language isnt really needed here and shouldnt be here

Isn't that what architecture is all about, disagreeing with everyone else and shamelessly self-promoting yourself to bring attetion to your own work?

Perhaps we should consider reversing thinking that these 'trolls' are a nuisance to the community...Perhaps they themselves are the very embodiment of the profession of architecture itself.....

Glad I finally found some good weed.
