Bare, So agree with you. I read TOTV to get news about The Villages. I have ventured on to the Political Forum a few times just to read the posts...wow is all I can say. Shocked that some people have such hatred. Glad my parents raised me better than that. Way too depressing for me to continue reading the Political Forum, so I don't.

Amen! I have two friends whose husbands both have had serious medical diagnoses in the past 2 weeks. One has a brain tumor; one has colon cancer.

As Cat Stevens said in the song, O Very Young, "You're only dancing on this earth for a short while."

But you can't always get the names because the technique you explain often retains the same 8-9 post never advances or goes back.

That is totally incorrect.

Hitting the 'Quote Post' button on ANY post in the thread and then scrolling down...will show the last 10 posters names.

ONLY the last 10, but it will continually update as more posts are made, so earlier posters names are lost...if they're not in the last 10.

I do post on Political Talk because I enjoy discussing politics over other forums presented on TOTV. I am one who never resorts to expletives and I maintain civility.

I agree if you are easily offended then Political Talk is something you should avoid.

There are threads on Political Talk and posters whom I simply ignore

I remain on Political Talk because I am one that pressed to have it returned as a forum.

In that I have and want a voice .

I do not care if it is moderated as I am a big boy and can take care of myself.

I will admit I am disturbed by the number of unsavory characters Political Talk has drawn. Its kind of scary to think that these same people could be your neighbors .

My prediction is that unless posters begin to act in a responsible and rational manner Political Talk will implode. And frankly I believe that is what TOTV Management is hoping for.

I opine others can decide.

So many wonderful people, movie information and birthday wishes on the political forum, priceless.

Your input on the Political Forum is appreciated greatly by many of those on there as was that of Carl from Tampa.

Moderating the Political Forum would take way too much time and effort. And it is way to ugly to just move the whole thing into the Regular Board where it could be moderated as a Regular Forum with all the rules these have.

I do post a lot of birthday wishes to politicians, celebrities, scholars, movie stars and the like on the Political Forum as politics impacts every aspect of our lives and involves people in every walk of life.

And many movies have political implications or involve political stories or have stars who are interested in politics.

I agree with some of your post, but definitely not this portion.

The folks who avoid the political forum are perfectly capable of taking care of themselves. Imho, they avoid it because they don’t want to waste their time on such inane blather.

Missy.... it looks like you are subscribed to the political forum. You will need to go into your user profile and unsubscribe to this group.

Members who do not subscribe to the political group should not see any political posts or threads as they navigate through the 'regular', moderated forum.
