People should also be restricted to 2 posts in N&P per day - otherwise all we have is one type of posts spammed by one person.
I don't see the point in restricting the number of posts. I'm quite capable of scrolling by. Would you say the same about a former member and her "Patriot Post" posts?
Yes I would tell Billie the same thing.
Do you tell Pema to knock it off though?

How does one type of posts 15 times foster conversation?

From my phone I cannot see who posts and the FOE option does not hide posts made by Pema or any of her alts. So I’d be fine with limitations on the number of posts. We already have hundreds of pages with 1-2 replies.
I get tired of that bullshit too. I'm truly interested in actually discussing what is happening politically. That petty shit like the post about POTUS claiming rain was stupid and it helps hide the real stuff going on.

Dan Bishop won, btw.
306/232

But I'm still the winner! They lied! They cheated! They stole the election!

I saw the alert. I’m at a conference this week for work so I haven’t dug into news. It would be really nice if I could pop on here and see news not just partisan bullshit.

No. We seem more than capable of insulting each other without pictures.

If I were to agree with number restrictions I would set the number higher than 2, maybe closer to 5. But I do agree that 5 posts in less than 10 minutes multiple times a day could be considered spamming the board. It has been done by certain members for years.

Both republicans won, and President Trump’s visits to N.C. seemed to help them. Tell us again how unpopular he is.

Yea, I can’t really control that. I don’t even see who votes unless I dig into the database.

Of course he is popular in North Carolina,a conservative Republican state populated by a whole lot of yahoos who drive beat up loud trucks with rebel flags in the back window , sometimes a rifle.
He speaks to the sleaze , prejudice, homophobia and bigotry there.
