ROLLITUP.ORG Now With 70% Shit Talking!

Browsing around over the last few weeks it has really struck me just how much shit talking goes on here. Sometimes there's 10 friggin' pages of nothing but shit talking right in the middle of good threads. I see this as a problem because, unless I'm mistaken, this is a site for stoners or people who smoke at the very least. I also see it as a problem because it should, though not in all cases, be something that is rather simple to deal with.
If somebody starts a thread then they should be able to delete posts in that thread. I know that means somebody could start a thread stating that the sky is bright green and if anybody said otherwise they could delete those posts but if that was the case then people would know pretty quickly where that person stands. It's when a thread goes from discussing cooling methods and turns into 10 or 20 pages of talking shit that the person who started the thread could just delete the shit talking with no problems.
I know that sometimes a thread grows old and the person who started it doesn't visit anymore or not often at least and there's nothing to be done at that point, but for those with threads that get taken over by the bullshit and who actually want to put a stop to it and remove the bullshit, well they should have the power to do so.
I know this could lead to tit for tat deletion of posts if ABC posts on DEF's thread and DEF deletes it and then posts something constructive on ABC's thread and ABC deletes it out of revenge but that's just a hell of a lot better than the pages of complete bullshit that would ensue otherwise.

Anyways. Rollitup. Can we do something about this? I think that if we start a thread then it is in effect OUR thread and we should be able to decide whether a post is allowed there or not.

Thanks. Keep it green. Peace.

It'll never change!! This is the 'troll & stalk' section after all.

How was Spannabis?

I hate your idea.

See, if it was implemented, you could delete my post, and people would never know it was a bad idea.

Forums are for discussion, what you want is a blog.

It's been brilliant thanks. People have flown in from all over the World.

Shantibaba got me into Resin club last night for the after party. He was with Mr Nice. The day before at the show, I spoke with Simon (serious seeds), Soma, Derry (Irish) from Barneys. The big Buddha boss (chinese man on the packaging) gave me some LA cheese to test when I bought seeds. Saw Eva seeds. Spoke to my friend Javi who owns Medical seeds. Just saw loads of people I know.

Eva Seeds got the crowd high!!

the answer to this is 100% simple

you cant change them.. you can change yourself..

refuse to feed the bull.. the shit goes away too

Hate is a strong word. Forums ARE for discussion. 10 pages of petty name calling isn't discussion though.

Yeah I have an old stalker account I started in 2009. In a year and a half I made 2 posts and they were compliments. I forgot my password after not logging on for a long time and the account was tied to my old email which I lost the password for an even longer time ago than that so I created this account and finally became more involved.

I like to think that I never really feed the trolls. Maybe 1 or 2 offhand comments but never any digging and never would I try to perpetuate a negative run. Nobody trolls my threads simply because I don't really give them any reason to and if I did, I would reply once and then ignore. It's when I'm reading through other threads and the pages become inundated with horse crap that I get bummed. Bummed for those who start the threads and bummed for those who want to read the information contained therein instead of how far someone can piss versus the next schlub.

It was just a though anyways. I'll stick with Rollitup for now and if it gets to the point where it's just not worth the read anymore, maybe I'll throw my hat into the ring and write up a page myself. Of course I'd have to get past all the stoner procrastination first.........

Sounds like the solution to gun control. Give everyone a gun. That will fix it.

i dont want a position on RIU. but there needs to be a vote of sorts about where the site should go. the guy is probably busy and doesnt know what else to put on here. i see some sites connected to their own smoke shops. i think it would be cool to start advertising local music stores, head shops, movie theatres( stoners love movies easy; access to entertainment) clothing stores.

This is what you get when you mix a collection of people/personalities from different classes and continents. I've had a 20 page discussion on me instigated by that FED Sammy the bull gravano, who was 60 lbs overweight anyway and a fat ugly lesbian who in real life can't even board a plane without meds!!!!! Loool! Mixed with other online personas/pretenders you have to take them at face value and a pinch of salt!

Only 70%...
