I looked back over the 5 posts you made in the Mar-A-Lago thread.

I stand by my warning. You were adding nothing and attempting to derail the thread.

You seem to be playing your normal game of trying to change the argument in this thread.

Did you know there is a feature where we can click on the username and click on # Posts in Topic button? This then shows us just the OP and user’s posts. It is especially handy for mods to review the actions of a poster in a thread.

Be aware, this is how P&E and GD are being modded.

Oh and as far as reading all the threads in the forums we moderate, I doubt any Mod spends more time reading the board than I do and there is no way what you suggest is remotely possible.
