It has come to my attention that the political forum is becoming a place of personal attacks and such. From what I have seen this is the case. I am asking that all patrons water down thier rhetoric a bit, or I will do it for you........by closing the forum and banning all political speech on this board.

Consider this a request......for now.

No, it is not pointed at you, it is more in general. I appreciate the fact that you would wish to apologize to the patrons here. That is very big of you.

Well, that depends on your perspective, I suppose. It also means that the forums should be more ruly and calm, instead of unruly and aggresive.

I can't comment since I don't visit there anymore. You may want to consider giving out moderator priverlages for R&R and Politics for a short time.

Myself being global moderator, I suggest I be allowed to moderate them. I'm here every day, especially now damn sickness.. plus Ive left posts before asking people to knock it off, but without the "power" to back it up, it's like telling a puppy to "stop chewing on my shirt!!!!"

I'd do it, anything to help the boards. I just don't know how much more of a responsibility it would be from normal browsing of the boards.

Glempius want's job, Glempius needs power to compensate for his inadequcies.
And maybe we shoul cut down on people saying that other peoples opinions are "stupid" not mentioning any names.

In my defence I've never mentioned a opnion to be stupid, I've mentioned comments to be stupid, there is a difference.

Now as for the use & abuse here....I think this more has to do with the fact of certin peoples opinions going overboard....where on side says this and one side says that...now I wont name any names unlike Glempius, I am sure we can guess at people who I am and will be mentioning. As well what I dont think is helping is that when we have people that are in these debaits mention oh "I wont be commenting on this subject anymore" and then come back 2-4 posts later. I say the best way only is that we have moderators....they should give more slack, since in debaits things tend and are kinda ment to get "heated" but juss to make sure poeple dont go over board with whats being discussed

Also....was that a personal attack Glempius made on me ?
