I do not agree with either of you.
I learned a lot on the old political forum...From those who did not preach but read and used FACTS, not emotion to talk about issues.
We had/have a fellow who knows banking, which I have no clue about.....learned a ton from him...changed my viewpoint on a few things also.
That story could apply to any number of posters that I learned so much from.
No.....problem is the posters. Using fictious names.....having an agenda to do nothing but what I guess is called flaming...nothing more. Ignoring or not listening to anything that is said from any side of an issue, and especially ignoring ISSUES. I had strong feelings on candidates recently but that does not mean they were bad people...does not mean anything but I disagreed with their policies.
Second issue was what this does to the administrators who try to keep it civil. I would prefer a political forum with ONE STRIKE and you are out. Make the rules clear and if you violate them...good bye. There are forums out there like that and there are forums that make our old political forum look like a church picnic.
But I miss the viewpoint of people.....their input...great learning experience.
