Just as a tip. Fan boards are not a good place to visit if you don’t like contributions from the general population. The general population is quite a spectrum.
It will be nice to get back to debating hockey though. Not politics or some other unrelated topic.

There's a collection of regular posters who don't seem to grasp this. I've probably been in that group too.
It's a waste of time trying to fight/challenge every poster with a view that doesn't align with the majority here. It's a bell curve, but also a spectrum as you say, being a public board. And there will always be another poster with an "out there" opinion the next day. And it's doubtful that anybody is changing their mind at the end of day, especially with the manner in which people engage with those posters.
Keeping things light and humorous and not trying to strong arm people into changing their beliefs if we don't agree with them is a good policy for maintaining any semblance of sanity here.
But I suppose it's impossible to expect people to engage in a healthy way either lol. For some, chaos is their lifeblood. And misery loves company. And there's certainly no shortage of that around these parts.
I just hope the Flames have one of those up years so that the fights are more nitpicking as opposed to spats between drunken depressed fans that just bring the whole vibe down in GTs.
