Now Bolsenaro has tested positive. I hope it knocks the shit out of him so he finally starts to take it seriously.

I'm also strongly against locking it. If you lock it, it'll sink and be harder to find, and even once found will be impossible to quote. I need easy access to previous posts.

And I'm against a new thread. If everyone is disciplined (e.g. no political diversions), there's no need to split stuff off. You can still delete posts from long threads, right, even if you can't split them off?

If he just deleted all your unnecessary and unreadable posts that would save over 100 pages.

He could save time by deleting your entire account. Then he wouldn't have to hear you whinge e.g. about the "unfairness" of two mods having the opposite opinion to you in a thread.

If 1 or 2 posts is serial whinging, how to desribe your systematic pollution of the board posting ream after ream of incorrectly quoted stuff, sometims even with a link, and no opinion or comment?

You aren't a poster here, you're a keyword search engine with posting privileges.

Are you kidding? It's not 1 or 2 posts. You have dozens of whingeing posts. Do you want me to remind you of all of them? e.g. your whinge about PTID writing posts that are too long for you.

No thanks, I seriously don't need you posting more reams of incorrectly quoted crap that no one reads. i'd ask why you don't just post opinions and observations more often, like everyone else on the bulletin board, but the answer to that is clear. No one wants to read those either.

Just lock it down or delete K's rubbish and let it go for another 3 months.

My opinions on this topic are pretty clear, at least to Nicksters with normal comprehension skills.

I'd ask why you are so agitated by ptid writing a "long" post, which no one forced you to read, but the answer to that is also clear.

Your user name is entirely appropriate.

Firstly it's 1 letter so even you can remember it.
Secondly it's a slang term for a drug, Ketamine, which is a powerful sedative used to tranquilise horses and some AFL footballers, similar effect to your posts generally.

C'mon David, lock it down. I can do this all day.

If starting a new thread helps the mods, then I'm happy to lock it down and start posting in the new thread. Initially, I didn't understand the reason to lockdown and start a new thread.

Just call it "Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic - Part 2" and move on.
