It really could be, at least partially, related to two factors: #1 Phatscotty not posting. If I search his lasts posts, these are titles of topics he created before departing in early to mid January:
And #2. PimpDave not posting as well. Topics he created:
Not a conclusive study, but I think there exists some correlation between these factors.

You know, if you think about the real logistics of this metaphor, wouldn't it be easier to tolerate whack-jobs when they're not on the opposite side of your fence...because you are, well, separated?

No, because the whack-jobs on my side of the fence are too busy throwing shit at the reasonable people on the other side to be any bother to me. It's the ones on the other side, throwing their shit at me, that I can't stand.
The worst part about this analogy is that the more reasonable people on either side tend to be closer to the fence, and so end up getting covered in the shit getting thrown from the whack-jobs on both sides.

Pimpdave is Phatscotty's wilier half-cousin as far as political discussion threads go imho. The only difference I see in their approaches is that Phatscotty is less overt in his spamming/trolling/baiting.
Btw, I like them both equally.
