Can we please ban posts complaining about golocalprov links on this sub?

Only when they are banned, because they are absolutely terrible journalism. Only good for people who don't read objectively and have already made up their own mind about how much they hate this city.

What's your main issue with them? Your criticisms in this thread seem kind of vague

PipeLayer2016 t1_iy6c9nz wrote

Not vague at all. They post salacious articles without context, just enough to engage but not inform. Pretty sure I spelled that out clearly above.

How are they salacious? Are you referring to their reporting on crime? That seems to be a lot of their coverage and might attract trolls. But im not entirely sure what you are getting at and thus having to speculate. Just wanted a more specific example

I pass on this discussion. The one thing I have learned in the past 6 years is not to debate people who will never listen.

What are we debating? I don't even know what discussion you are passing on. What specifically do you dislike about their reporting? Can you give me an example? Is that really too much to ask?

Yes. Too much to ask, because you aren't entering into this discussion in good faith

What discussion are we having? You still haven't told me.

How can I be engaging in bad faith if I don't know what I'm even engaging on?

You made the thread so clearly you have something to say.... Im just not sure exactly what it is beyond "GoLocalProv Bad".

Why do you feel that way?

What type of articles do you dislike? That's all I'm asking. Is that really too much to ask?

The OP is throwing a fit because he presumably doesn't want people knowing that a car full of gangbangers fired a half dozen bullets at an innocent civilian couple in South Providence.

Got me good! Oh man. How will I ever recover. I live in Onlyville and just hide in my apartment because of all the crime outside. Also, those deleted comments are mostly yours for being reported.

Probably.

It would be nice if you could stop stalking me because you are upset. Also you edited your comment with all of the doxing information you previously posted. Tough on crime, unless it's directed at people you don't like

Posting a link to something you wrote on reddit is not doxxing.

Peeps seem strict when it comes to what goes in and what doesn’t in this sub-Reddit.
