Politics Section now closed!

**James Jean** · 11-14-2011, 03:36 PM

I can think of 4 persons off the top of my head that constantly polluted the section. Anyways.... about time!

Not being an active member, just a spectator, I agree with the immature part that happened in political section. I see a few between doc com and raider. Now, no more arguing LOL. Admit it, doc.

No offense, I think this is still a good forum. Hopefully, even better when it's more focused on domaining.

My Apologies to my friend Raider.
Raider Lived for the Politics on DNF and my off topic was a forbidden topic, I realize now. I hope to see the days when DNF Politics reopens.
I did not have intentions to post bad things about other DNF members.
I be apologetic to ones I have bothered

sorry to hear this news...but totally understand the reasons. :(

back to work...

**Gerry** · 11-14-2011, 07:46 PM

Great time for domainers to move into the next step of domain ownership. Create their own sites to post what ever they wish. And to block anything they do not agree with.

Awesome, had taken a break from it for a while out of disgust then recently began to post back out of disgust, in the end just a bunch of disgust.

A shame really.

Been waiting for this since it opened. It does not help DNF to have it, and imho, damages DNF.

good decision

**tetrapak** · 11-15-2011, 07:54 AM

If the amount of time spent on the useless debates in the political section would be re-used for domaining then we can expect great things to come! You know the law of energy, it will not be lost...

I find this reply a bit weird. If you resented the forum that much, why did you even visit it?

But yeah, good move on Adam's part. I am sick of forums trying to be a community to discuss everything.

**RTM.net** · 11-15-2011, 12:36 PM

I'm actually surprised it lasted this long - in all the online communities I have managed, we always kept away from having a political forum - or even tolerating politics as a discussion ; it always broke the community spirit, and friendships, regardless what the primary subject of the forum was.

Good move, Adam.

**Adam Dicker** · 11-15-2011, 12:52 PM

To be honest, I enjoyed it as that's where we talked about stuff in the news... Just the Republicans vs Democrats bashing was too much.

**Gee** · 11-15-2011, 03:53 PM

actually I never expressed my opinion so frankly and got people reading and listening and interacting like I did in this forum

In our land, for your opinion , you either get killed or ignored.

I was glad to share with people here news and telling opinion even about american presidential candidates

I hope you open this section again

Agree and absolutely nothing wrong with a political forum.

I think we all will agree it was basically 3 or 4 heavy posters who ruined it for everyone and I think we all know who those members are. Now that it's gone what in the world will they be posting heavily about next. Maybe they will get very bored.

**Donald Aquilano** · 11-15-2011, 06:30 PM

Its not really much of a loss IMO. I STRONGLY dislike certain people on this forum because of the discussions I have had in the political section.

You'll never get rid of it completely since some will just post political threads in other sections.

The people who were hurling the insults, they should have been punished, not the whole forum.

**Adam Dicker** · 11-18-2011, 08:13 AM

I have found a way to open it up again and just block the people that hurl insults at each other from the section.

Glad to hear this... thanks

**Gerry** · 11-18-2011, 09:37 AM

Sorry, I think it should have stayed closed.

I do not go to dyxum.com forum (Sony/Minolta products,sales, and reviews) and post domains for sales or talk about ccTLD's.

Yes, I am a big pain in the *** to some in this section.

It is inappropriate. I have been inappropriate. It does not belong.

Adam, I do not think you should backtrack on this.
