The purpose of the off-topic forum is to have a place to discuss stuff with other members that aren't 2019+ Ranger specific topics.

As for the rules, we plan to keep those short:
  1. No sex/adult content rule. Let's keep everything PG for now.
  2. No violent content rule. Same as rule #1.
  3. No political content rule. While everyone's entitled to their own opinion, arguing politics rarely changes someone else's mind, and just serves to anger and annoy everyone.
All rules are subject to be changed or modified as the off-topic forum grows.

Soooooo, can I start the "Troll School Master Thread" in here, for all manner of light hearted and clean troll education? I mean I think that is something that the forum really needs.

Incorrect, trolls cannot be defeated.
Hi Chance,

That is what the Ignore selection is all about .. I have not used this much but there are three folks here that I view as non value added and one of them has disappeared off the forums for some reason. I know Ranger Pride disagrees, but it keeps my blood pressure low and at 70, BP pills are my friend...sheehs ! :frown:

Best.

I probably can guess who at least 2 of the 3 are. :crackup:

What I mean is that if you ignore the trolls, then the trolls win, if you do not, then you lose. I’m just proposing a place where they can all play together with freedom to leave everyone else alone. Where trolls can feed trolls, and troll school is always in session.

The problem is trolls don't like other trolls so soon enough they'll be back on the main forum trolling us. Sometimes this helps.

Hi Chance,

I understand what you are saying. Suppositorily :) We are here to help and learn. If the troll has a problem and seeks help, if ignored, I won't know and provide any help if I can. Thus the Troll looses, maybe?

I think the moderators do a great job here to keep things civil.

All,

This is a reminder that political discussions are not allowed on Ranger5G. Some users have been warned by the moderators and continue to ignore it.

Going forward, any user who does so in violation of the forum rules will have their post removed and account suspended.

Please read the rules above and refrain from the prohibited topics/content.

Thank you.

If we don't talk about politics, can we make fun of politicians?
