Partisan gamesmanship can easily backfire. That is likely to happen in the highly emotional "torture" debates.
There is an old legal maxim,When the facts are on your side, pound on the facts.…
When the law is on your side, pound on the law.
When neither is on your side, pound on the table.

Roger,
You can do what you like. But you're driving me crazy! :-)
I replied to your e-mail. Did you write directly to anyone? Or are you planning on making the site even more unpalatable by doing all those posts that are meaningless?

Cindy,
I responded to your comment #134 on the other thread.

I've lost patience with the awkwardness of this new format. Why was it changed?

Bliffle, I'm telling you. If they're not going to correct these glitches, and soon, they'll loose sixty percent of the traffic if not more. Jet had a perfect idea - submit it to users from review prior to release. But no! Everyone wanted to celebrate the first hundred days in office.

LOL
Bliffle you’re starting to sound more like a conservative all the time.
Maybe we missed it Bliffle, maybe BC announced they were going to make changes to the site and wanted to have user input first and so they asked, you know, all the users, the ones running the gauntlet here, and on many many other blogs as well, what we thought and might like to see. But if they did, we missed it.
The act of socialistically governing progressively is always from the top down were the masses are herded into a designed system that the few ruling elite develop for them as their parental figure. Its not a new concept at all and is always born out of the vacuum of time between generations now gone who suffered under such elites but are no longer around to tell the stories.
History doses in fact repeat it self. So shut up and enjoy the shafting change Bliffle, unless, social justice forbid, you want to keep sounding like one of those conservatives.

Blah to Franco's nonsensical reasoning. You're not aware that a Republic is a top-down structure that imposes rules on the masses? Where do these ideas come from? Inside your head or Pluto?

I'll say one thing. This ineptness just might motivate a few bright people on this here site to band together and form their own forum, separate from BC. The Internet is here to stay, and so is blogging. Getting the advertisers is a cinch too. All you need is a few enterprising minds and a little capital; the would-be members/writers would be stockholders.
Stranger things had happened when a parent company take their eyes off the ball.
Any takers, because I'd be willing to listen?
