It's so important that we win the Senate. If we don't Hillary will have the least productive first term of any President in a loooooong time.

Would it be ok to repost this thread http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1301815 and just remove the parts where the OP says like... "I" and other parts where it's his opinion. An example- "Reasons why people might not like Hillary"...instead of "Why I don't like Hillary" as it was made. Modbot says it was locked because it was his opinion and that we dont need individual opinions as threads...which makes sense, otherwise the forum would be filled with those threads (imagine every one making their own thread for their impressions on a game)

No? Why would you repost a locked thread and try and circumvent the reason it was locked with some semantic nonsense.
Who are you even asking? These bedwetters can't designate what threads get made.

If you want to talk about how much you hate killary you can do it in here. And if anyone is foolish enough to respond to you about it that's their prerogative.

Well I've seen times the modbot or a mod saying you can repost the thread with (whatever change).

It wouldn't be a small edit to the thread...it would remove all personal opinion and just say "Reasons why people might not trust Hillary's foreign policy"..."Hillary's foreign policy mistakes"... "Reasons why people might not like Hillary"...or some variation of those. That was the reason it was locked, right? Because it was his individual opinion. I was looking forward to reading the responses...probably wouldnt have posted, just wanted to read them.

Well, not to backseat mod but I probably would have let that thread slide unless/until it got out of hand, so I don't know what to tell you.

But still--the board is generally and heavily pro-Clinton. That's just the way it is. The election is in ten days. We've been looking at these two all year and it feels like a decade. Two conventions, three debates, 50,000 emails and a bajillion rallies. There isn't much time or reason to hash out the merits of the candidates anymore. Not sure what you're looking for in a thread like that now.

Speaking of bedwetting...I woke up this morn with mild dampness in my boxers lmao. Starting to happen more often as i get older. I haven't figured out yet if it's sweat or pee.

Only times I've ever trolled were in two threads/communities...Wrasslegaf and NBA gaf. Wrasslegaf the whole thread is a troll with everyone having a gimmick. NBA gaf well...I'd get legit upset about the Kobe hate and trolled. No other trolling. Maybe a little in the NFL thread too.

Political stuff no way in hell would I troll because that's too sensitive a subject and would be banned. I support Donald Trump and will be voting for him. That's all there is to it.
