    I just explained to someone else, that folks will reply and treat others, just how they are treated. Some liberal members come here and start instantly generalizing and name calling and other stupid things, and then whine and bitch when they are treated rudely by some members.

    I admittedly don't agree with everything in Russia, and admittedly don't agree with you on some things - but it's nice to discuss things with you, as it's obvious you put in some time to your replies, and you are respectful to others. That's much appreciated!!

    Thank you, I appreciate that.
    It is okay, that we can't agree at everything, because we see things from different perspectives. But we must be able to discuss it. Calm and intelligent
    That ability to discuss our conflicts must be our difference to histerical liberals and other leftists.

    Default Since this is a thread for newbees...

    I've asked this on the chat feed, but that seems to be inactive.
    While I've got y'all talking to me, is there an app for this forum? I thought I saw something about this, during the registration process, but cannot find any info.
    In fact, it's difficult for Google to produce any results about this forum, due to its name. Well done! Was that by design?
    I am continually logged off, in a browser be on the Tapatalk app. Is that by design?

    I believe things should work fine with either Tapatalk or some prefer Forum Runner. I know Tapatalk works, but I don't use it to post really, just read when away from home. I have no control over any of the settings of their app.

    I certainly didn't design that, that's a fatal flaw - using "debate" and "policy", which are way too competitive to bring to the top of the results. Yes, I suck.

    I'll checkout Forum Runner. (ETA, looks like Forum Runner is for iPhone, only)
    I really did think it was clever, choosing the name of the forum, in order to keep it off of the search engine radar. That's why I thought it was by design. Definitely meant as a compliment, not criticism.
    What about my being logged out, every time I come back, using the Chrome browser?

    I don't have that issue using chrome. The board should automatically log someone out after 30 minutes of inactivity. But if you check-off the "remember me" option when logging in, then you should be fine. I'm honestly unsure if you do just that and still get logged out.

    Running any other type of software that may kill your cookies or prevent your machine from remembering your session?

    You don't need an app to get back here. When you are on the INTRO page, where you log in. Just RIGHT CLICK your mouse, a menu should come up that says something like "CREATE A LINK to this page" or "SAVE AS". Save it to your Desktop Screen. Then, every time you want to come back. JUST CLICK ON THE LINK on your screen. It should work. If not. Ask GOOGLE how to create a LINK to a page.
    They have instructions for everything. Good luck.

    Dang, forgot about that, that's for "Forum Runner" free software - which I just checked and apparently doesn't exist anymore.

    Uninstalled - no one should be prompted for that one again.

    welcome.

    "...who loves our Constitution and our civil liberties."
    there's plenty of room for some like that here.

    so you are not a vet anymore?
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
