If I see one more thread about eating ass
This new race track set up has exposed a good amount of so called black posters as...
- Thread starter *L*E*G*A*C*Y*
- Start date
I agree with the gist of this thread. I've been reading this forum for about a year now but it has been long enough for me to see a noticeable drop in quality.
It seems like the mods have been given the heads up to move all discussions that touch on race, no matter how high quality or popular, to The Race Track. There are some very good threads that aren't getting nearly the exposure they deserve because they're moved to the race track too early, and often for no reason other than having black in the title.
It's gotten to the point that half the threads I start reading in The Locker Room have been moved to The Race Track by the time I'm done. This wasn't happening a month ago and it certainly wasn't happening a year ago.
This is definitely an issue.
On top of it, it seems like all the mods in here are trying to downplay the issue and are couching it in the most positive, non-inflammatory light possible, talking about avoiding trolling and overly long threads.
Not once have I seen a mod go "hmm...maybe this is a problem" which is disconcerting because this is obviously an issue everyone else has noticed.
So when you got a bunch of users speaking up about something and the mods going "nah there's no issue. we're doing this for your own good." it makes you think. There's a growing divide between what the users want, are used to, and are entitled to on this site - and what it has slowly become.
The Locker Room went from a vibrant intellectual community with quality threads to a childish and irrelevant copy or JBO or misc - the PAWG edition. I used to be intimidated to post in that subforum and now I just
at all the stupidity
The fact that all the changes have been slow, small, yet oddly consistent is just more proof that this is systemic and planned. It's not a hodgepog of mods doing their own thing. There is consistency here. And it is insidious. There is no one thing you can point to that can not be explained away by a mod. It has been a subtle step by step shifting of things. And it makes one think

My point is this is a black forum, with black users, and we should be allowed to talk about black issues out in the open without being relegated to some back room "free speech zone". What the fukk is the point of this forum if you can't talk about black issues outside the relegated "its ok to be black here, no one comes here" areas.
Try making a thread in TLR as a conscious, educated black man and see how long it lasts. TLR has become a forum where only the c00ns and jigaboos can post freely and it seems like the worse it get's the more fervent the over moderation of good threads becomes.
The Race track has basically a
While The Locker Room, a place made so you can talk about anything, has been relegated to the dumbest most inane troll posts and PAWG threads this site has to offer. Nowadays you can easily find more quality threads in JBO than you can in TLR. It's fallen that far.

Whoa.
When was this?Whoa.
You know damn well it used to be a good place to read up on shyt. Especially breaking new. The coli was like a more educated TMZ, less racist/stupid misc, and it funnier than any other website or forum I've seen. Now look at it. If you don't hate black women, love PAWGs, and LOVE eating ass you're shyt out of luck.
I actually don't know how many times I always used to read from TLR posters that it was the worst section on the board.
So just now, a quick search of "tlr is the worst forum" (a phrase I have seen so many times on here):

This has been less than a week, but let's see.
By moving race related issues to a designated forum, The coli makes for one big, easy, COINTELPRO operation.
And the White Supremacist are watching. 
And Posting.
Locker Room has been nothing but regurgitated

Hmm 
It's like the same thing is said every couple months, TLR is trash now all they talk about is weave, pawgs,etc etc etc
Somebody is giving these topics life and that's why they're being made repeatedly.
If you want a better forum, stop letting bullshyt threads do numbers. Report them and send them to the bushes.
RT will be better eventually, it's a new thing so of course people will be against it. Help RT by contributing to the discussions realistic, ignore the trolling and race baiting.

Exactly. Race is a prominent part of our daily lives. There's no way to avoid it.
If this website supposedly made by blk ppl, why are c00ns,cacs so rampant? I doubt st0rmfr0nt, chimpout lettin anything positive on "******s" on the site. This is some bizarro shyt! Fuk a pawg,c00n, blk woman hatin mofo
I've never seen a group of nikkas post so passionately about sticking their tongues in ass
I really hope that they're trolling.
They most likely are but that shyt is some middle school type of humor. Then again these are the same people who thought Yung Yogurt was funny.

Yes. RT should stay. It is a good sub forum for the kinds of threads that are made here. The point is we should have, and furthermore are entitled to, the freedom to talk about race outside RT. We are not stupid. We are not children. If someone makes a race thread outside The Race Track it's because they wanted it there. It's not because they stupidly stumbled into that sub forum and it's not the mods job to kindly direct their thread back to the safety of The Race Track. Race is a big overwhelming subject and we have the right to discuss that subject outside the race track.
The way things are now it's like the second someone makes a race based thread in The Locker Room some snitch goes "mods pls move this thread to the race track" and it's out of there instantly, regardless of the intention of the thread-starter or the other posters. It's like some fukking mod SWAT team.
Mods are reacting to race threads like they're escaped prisoners that need to be relegated to The Race Track right away. It's a little ridiculous to have to argue that we should be able to talk about race is a sub forum where you can talk about anything.
