You are exactly right mairving.
Our first point: This is a tech forum. The only reason this forum was started was to keep me as a part of PC Media. David and I disagreed about Politics being discussed here at all. I didn't want any part of them, and he thought this was a nice place for them...for some reason or another I guess.
Second Point: We have more than 4 separate political forums at
http://www.forumclick.com. Political Discussion is WELCOME over there! David is relaunching the site, so every bit of your traffic over there helps us. If you don't wanna use that for Politics, you won't be discussing them on any PC Media related forum after Jan 31st.
Third Point: I've noticed that some that used to post tech related stuff, now mostly post in here. Although we appriciate the traffic, this isn't the type of traffic we are looking for.
With all of that said, I encourage you to check out forumclick.com. Although I don't agree with the colors (they hurt my eyes personally), I'd like to see all (non generally offensive) discussion over there. The Bad news is that I'll still be your Admin at Large. The good news is that I'll be MUCH more liberal as to the discussions it will be a Forum that deals with almost all topics of life, besides what we do in the bathroom. That is of course unless you disscuss Politics or College in the bathroom with your friends...then you're just sad...very very sad.
As always, if you wanna talk about this via e-Mail, or would want to push harder to keep this forum, feel free to e-Mail me. Unless you think that everyone is out to "get you", my keyboard is always open to you.
(That's a joke)
