This forum Has maybe 8-10 active users. To have 2/3 police their opinions on others is not right imo. Yes obviously I can stop posting and leave as others have, but I do value whatever we have left here, for now.
But that dwindles every day when people disappear
Brad also left other social circles recently, so this wasn't an isolated incident.

That’s the issue, there are so few of us out here. And once “someone else” takes over the current set of admins will Stop posting negating any attrition gains to be had by being more lenient about the current police state.[user not found] wrote: ↑Wed Sep 16, 2020 2:29 pmNegotiable of course. GoDaddy values the domain at about $400 which jives with what offers have come in for it occasionally (VERY occasionally) over the years. I wouldn't ask or expect a member to pay that much.
All admins would have to agree as well.

I just liked it better when we told each other we were wrong for liking a particular car.

I will agree with the above two posts.Detroit wrote: ↑Wed Sep 16, 2020 12:10 pmD Griff wrote: ↑Wed Sep 16, 2020 12:08 pm Also, FWIW... I'm not going to get involved in drama on here. But I don't think censorship belongs on a forum that was created to be about nothing. I think it will ultimately drive people away and kill the forum. We are like 20 people, for every few that leave, the place will become more dead and eventually nothing.
I can filter on my own and decide what I agree/disagree with and engage in myself.

also no more car offerings in the current NA market other than the mustang and its variants

I would also happily take over DFD and pay the few bucks/month required and allow freedom of speech.
I would not pay $400, nor would I want to see the likes of [user not found] and [user not found] abandon the forum though.

FWIW, eluded to it earlier, the issue isn't really debate, it's how we debate, and we're all probably guilty of it at one time or another.
Debating theory with different data sources (assuming they aren't made up) or different interpretations of the the same data can be productive.
"Debating" with memes, meh
"Debating" someone's real data by calling them a fucking idiot
"Debating" someones fake data by calling them a fucking idiot
I'd also argue that the majority of people that have left, or become less active over the years have less to do with Covid/global warming/political debates and more to do with the general doom and gloom, and this forum has always had.

Honestly it does make me
I think we were all adults here and for fucks sake even though it wasn’t a matter of science/memes/conspiracy theories we have all at one point or another been in disputes and disagreements/fights even getting PERSONAL against one another here and we chalk it up to another day at the office and once the next day comes around we are completely fine with one another.
If people want to leave on their own accord fine. But this forum was started as a for the lolz and borderline satirical in name and execution and it has maintained and even grown in some aspects. However recently it just sucks.
Vote for Pedro.

More often than not, I see members being insulted, berated, or bullied over subjective opinions.
This is nothing new and has been a plight of DFD well before COVID.
A lot of these issues existed beforehand, and have only been exposed/exacerbated by the heightened situation.

Different relationship = posting dark humor, wife nudes and hidden meat spin links? Sign me the fuck up[user not found] wrote: ↑Wed Sep 16, 2020 3:06 pmThis is the disconnect. That's for helping me articulate it. As the "bank" for DFD; a post, by default, is endorsed by me. As I have grown, I'm not comfortable doing that anymore with a vast array of topics. If someone takes over that bank role, I'll have a different relationship with it.razr390 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 16, 2020 3:03 pm Honestly it does make me

You guys have a VERY different relationship with this place than I do, simply because of the financial piece.
