Heavy-handed hijack moderation

I haven’t started one, but you or anyone else can.

If you want to allow Trump humor in P&E, just say you’re fine with it in your OP and make the subject of your OP broad, and I’ll stay out of it for hijacking so long as the humor doesn’t cross into Pit level stuff. I’ll go out on a limb and say I think other P&E mods are fine with this, too. But beware, that’s one of the problems – it often does cross into Pit level stuff.

There’s some fun joking around going in this thread:

The funny posts are mostly on topic, though, so I don’t know if that’s what you’re looking for.

If what you want is just a bunch of off topic Trump jokes, then the Pit is custom made for that.

I’ll just add that some of the best and most informative discussions I’ve had on this board were in the Pit. It was nice to say what I wanted without concern for stepping on the rules of the other forums. I don’t understand the resistance to using it.
