Smitty would rather not talk Olympics, so we don't get to have Olympics threads. The approach has been to create a new topic to discuss Olympics until Smitty comes by and starts shitting on the furniture. Then we simply start a new thread.
In my last thread on the Olympics I posted once. There were then over 250 posts about hockey. Does that count as feeding the trolls?

So ban him for a week. If he comes back and does ti some more, then ban him for a longer period of time.
I was initially on Capps side about censoring, but if he's going to intentionally (and repeatedly) come into the store and wreck shit, then throw his ass out. I about ready to give up on this place. It takes me twice as long to wade through vague thread titles to find stuff, and then half of those are filled with pages upon pages of off topic shit posting.
Kath, you are a mod, please act like the adult in the room since you were given the title. Creating a new thread every day for Olympics discussion is making it a mess to keep up any of it.
We missed four days of Olympic fun, due to an annual camping trip, so likely will miss out on some cool things. I appreciate those who will post some of those moments, even if you have to start a new thread to do so.
Is he okay? Is his neck repairable?
Also, how does him hurting himself prove something about SJWs? Confused.

Trust me, I would love to. This is Martin's place, though. I can only do my job in the confines of the parameters he sets. The forum voted that they want Smitty to have this power, so here we are.

Start reporting off topic posting when it is malicious. Some off topic is OK and often entertaining but when it is used to censor conversations by drowning it out with spam then this forum will die off as everyone gives up on posting.

Back on topic, Jamaican womens bobsleigh team raced today despite disgruntled ex coach threatening to take the bobsleigh home. Nigeria also qualified a team for the first time. This is the sort of feelgood story which makes the Olympics such a great event.
