I might as well point out the stupidity here.
ALL of the incidents mentioned in paragraph 1 of rab's latest post happened in on-topic threads. Yet, in paragraph 2, it is suggested that the sandbox threads - not responsible for ANY of those incidents - be banned, while the on-topic threads be should continue.

I was following up the point Guitarfool had made about the general posts about Voldermort all over the board contributing to the ease in which people bitched about him in the general on topic section which then possibly led to Desper being chased off. There's a difference between talking about Mike doing an inauguration concert under the Beach Boys name and incessantly bitching day in and day out about Voldermort's political policies.

Also, MORE of the "clogging up the board" and the <<dread>> seeing Voldermort's name were from the on-topic threads than the sandbox threads. This is such a pile of unbelievably whiny idiocy.
Okay, again I know of at least one poster who left because they were sick of seeing his name here. That your off-topic posting is keeping at least one poster who most always posted on-topic material annoys the hell out of me. I feel bad that you find it to be whiny idiocy.

Rab has flounced around before about other people not talking about things the way rab likes and he/she will again. Humoring this BS, saying, yes, poster, you get to control what other people say, is a mistake.
Could you please detail what you mean in this first sentence here?

But, GF will humor it this time because GF has a grudge. In GF's post above, he expresses his irritation with me for trying to get the constant, at that time, arguments about moderation off the main board, which I did. Because THAT at the time was what would have driven people away. That became a sh*t show and I'm sorry to have been involved, but that was not handled well on anyone's part.
I have no idea what that last "some just can't bring themselves" typically cryptic statement is about. But a few people were happily enjoying their little corner of the board. Some OTHER people got in their usual drama and one of the lead dramatists is using the opportunity to get a grudge-holding mod to shut down some people he doesn't like.
Well done.
