The Cloak Room is a terrible place.

[Guest]

This site is heavily medicated, maybe; self included.

Not heavily moderated.  They are about as hands off as you could be, in all fairness.  The rep-policing is puzzling however.

It's amazing where/ when the sporadic "corrections" occur when they do.  That might be the root of the frustrations. overall, the moderation is virtually nil.

Right after Sack and immortal get the same.

Edit: Oatmeal Cookie was the first one to necroneg me. When he stopped I did. It did not save him from saying stupid shit.

Says the gaping pussy going back through posting history negging every post? 

But yeah rep is completely meaningless unless you hover in the 100-500 range. If you hover in that range you probably suck or don't post much because people are generous with rep.

Meh.  PAC was posting vaccine disinformation.  He was asked NUMEROUS times to stop by a lot of people, and I KNOW I reported him at least once.  When he refused, I negged him into negative.  He had like 300 rep.  It took an hour one day. 

Don't start no shit won't be no shit. 

But he keeps complaining about it 2 months after, so he is absolutely a gaping pussy.

I vaguely remember that. Vaccine disinformation is a good way to never get any help from mods.

What is unfortunate about the cloak room is that the left leaning majority always gangs up on the right leaning minority and negs just about everything they post, and neither side hardly ever acknowledges any point the other side tries to make.

The reality is that the far left wing of the Democratic Party and the entire Republican party have serious issues, but no one in their own parties will ever admit that or acknowledge it. It’s frustrating. So all rational people just walk away.

That's pretty inaccurate - when a right leaning poster comes into CR making sound and cogent arguments supported with evidence they rarely if ever pick up systemic negs. Sure, they'll get one or two drive-bys in a similar style to what immortal does in DT, but it's hardly the purity olympics. 

If you come around throwing empty talking points, rhetoric, or disinformation that's solely supported by whatever shit you read on telegram and Facebook, you'll get negged to purgatory. Simple as that. Same thing for big election lies. 

Gotta stick to DT if you wanna stoke antivax and antidemocratic disinformation and not get called on it

This simply isn't true.

Those that I suspect you have characterized as left leaning tend to be more open minded and eager to discuss issues on their merits.  You know, most of the folks who used to be Republican voters (like myself).  You'll find, if you bother to look, that the right leaning minority is far more consistent in posting multiple negs on posts.  It's stupid team play.  It happens plenty on "both sides" but to suggest that it's "always" those on the left ganging up on the right is just flat out wrong.

I don't believe I neg anyone unless they neg me first.  And if I go to the trouble to neg bomb someone they either have neg bombed me first or did multiple drive by negs without even commenting in the thread.

I can guarantee you have negged probably 20x the amount of my posts that I have of yours.  

The fact that Hugo has 20k rep points from circle jerk Russia conspiracy nonsense is an indictment of the dumbfucks who spend all their time in the Cloak Room.  You are Texags politics.  Just the left's version of it.  And none of you can admit that truth.

Get the same for what? The only poster I ever neg bombed like that was Texaspython and that was in retaliation for negging 14 of my posts all at once. And you have no fucking room to talk about freely handing out negs. Maybe you and your liberal circle jerk pals should quit crying about neg rep

Actually, you are on my ignore list.  That post was not to you, it was to someone else.

However, since you are being such a trolling piece of shit in the COVID thread, I choose to look at your posts and neg them.  You need a time out.  You are not mentally well.

Regardless of what side, if any, one leans, I always found it really weird how some people join a sports, music or other interest based board but spend 95% of their time their in political threads. It seems like there's something a bit off about those folks.

I’m behind the curve for the cutting edge Surly sports takes, so I lurk on those boards. My frustration with the miasma emanating from UT’s football program doesn’t come close to the agitation I feel for my kid’s future in a failed nation, though.

Ha I was also was driven to the CR by Tom Herman’s shitshow.

[PenelopeWitherspoon 19279]

I was pretty apolitical and had not posted in the Cloak Room in ages.  But the Pandemic and some of the deniers in the Daily Texan thread as well as Trump and his stolen election bullshit is what drove me over there.
