@ponderable saidThere you go, or one could start their own club! Just have people in it you know get along with each other! .......I imagine it would become boring, but what do I know about that. 😉
So limiting the participants would be the way forward?
Club 66 come to mind

As the custodian of Club 66, I have found it difficult to keep the forum active. There's only so many interesting topics. But enlarging the group hasn't been easy, because most of the active public forum posters are entertaining themselves by provoking others into indiscretions.
It's like media in general - good news stories never sold newspapers.
@kewpie saidWell the way I see it if you get a group together who all think the same way and don't have discussions that have opposite views it is going to become boring very quickly.

I've always said you need your good guys, bad guys, piece makers, jokesters, etc., etc., which we have discussed in the past to have activity. That is why the General forum works to an extent, but sometimes does get a bit out of control but everyone is allowed their opinion.
"Debates Forum" can get pretty contraversial topics at times with people having strong ideas about things and facts to back them up on both sides of an issue.
You call it posters entertaining themselves by provoking each others, which is a valid point. You do see how ever the threads get more use than the ones where there is no disagreements.
I believe we've had this conversation in the past. We will probably continue to agree to disagree about this Topic.

@ponderable saidnope
We could at least try to have ONE thread without Insults (open or hidden ones).

@badradger saidYes, we could it is just that some don't want that to happen. I was quite willing to go along with it. After all it is only one thread, not going to happen in the whole GF of course.

@kegge saidWow three thumbs up to exclude someone whose posting you don’t like in a thread about being nice to people.
Not as long as idiots like very rusty are allowed here.
A nice example of why I like to be provocative in here.
@moonbus saidDo you remember Grampy Bobby...one of the most popular but at the same time hugely controversial forum contributors in RHP history I would say. I’m sure you do. He and I clashed repeatedly but I knew him relatively quite well and he shared poems he had written about his dear wife.
Yes, I remember Seitse. He was original, I'll give him that much. Is that positive enough?
As Gravedigger has alluded to, Seitse took pleasure (as a certain other current poster does with another poster actually) in trolling GB about his dead wife, who he was desperately still in love with and missed agonisingly.
Seitse made posts directed at GB about exhuming her body and sodomising her corpse in every orifice...and other “original”, edgy sharp humorous things like that. It is a pity those posts were taken down and don’t stand as an epithet to the visceral cruelty he dished out at times.
But yes he had a certain charisma and flirted with some of the female posters, he had a sense of humour which channeled appropriately amused some here. But I wouldn’t cross the road to piss on his head if his hair was on fire.

@divegeester
His name was Grampy Bobby...not Grammy...
I wish I had the power to bring him back to life so I could torture him.
He was so damn annoying.
Your edit has been noted 😌
@old-indian saidHow would you know he was annoying if you weren't here?

All you really have to go by is what people say.
Do you enjoy believing the worst about everyone?
