Politics

Every BBS I have ever been to has always had an off topic section to talk about everything and anything. And wether its been a BBS for motorcycles, cigars, gaming, hockey, or whatever, there are always discussions about politics that get heated.

In the end, most of the time, people discussing (not arguing) the politics are friends from the board and they dont take it too far. After the discussion, it goes back to normal, just like if you were discussing something with your friends or family in person.

Theres no need to remove sections of a board that are being used in the right way and not abused. If something comes up where two or more members get into it and take it too far, then maybe the mods will handle it then and take proper action.

Just as an aside, I believe when Hex put his warning up someone had just suggested something violent might happen to the President. I think that is where he was drawing the line. I believe the part about limiting political talk to cigars was more of a suggestion than a directive. I'm sure if I'm wrong on this Hex will let me know.

What he said.

Can I move this thread into Politics now?
