This is a domain forum. I actually have to sift through all the political crap to find the domain discussions/sales.

No offense...but is it necessary to post the same political bs threads constantly?

The least that could happen is you take it out of my unread posts. I really am tired of seeing it...or better yet...go debate politics in a political forum.

IMO it will slow down once the US's election is over.

You alright there theinvestor, I mean this is the lounge section and people tend to talk about current events at lounges.

Hi,

There is 2 forum Sections...Just for "politics"....use those to voice your views.

Peace,

I want everyone to see this. Not those that participate in the political threads only.

There is away around this. On DS they have a political section but new threads and posts cannot be seen unless you go to that particular part of the forum. They do not appear on the new/recent posts list.

bd77, i am not familiar with DS...BUT ..that is exactly what i am suggesting to be done.

This is an issue that needs to be changed not only for the political section but for the adult section. If it still appears on unread posts...what is the point of the adult section not being viewed by children?

These political threads continue to have so much interest because they are being viewed by so many people that did not actually go to the forum. If less people are subjected to these threads. They will die down...and only those who are really interested in them can continue to discuss there.

I know you won't stop Raider, that's the only thing you know how to do.

Not the only thing :no:

For someone who's growing tired of Political posts, you sure have done a lot posting in the political section yourself. :yes:

I understand where your coming from, Some members abuse the priveledge by creating multiple threads of the same subject... I think we had over 300 Global Warming threads by one member where I and many others complained about it, This isn't like that... It's election time so a lot of members want to chime in.

I dont see anything wrong with it.

Raider,

This is actually in the platinum lounge. :)

But, i agree with you and draggar. The posts have been increasing lately as we get closer and closer to the election date. Let's just hope the madness eventually ends.

There is a reason there is a Political/Controversial sub forum and you are using it now.

I do not use it to constantly bash democrats or republicans.

I actually use it for real issues that will affect our economy.

As long as we have a poster like Raider who tells lies like this we will have someone like me who points out the truth. I'm sure she's referring to me and I know its a lie....no where near 300 and I didn't start all of them....but the truth never stands in the way of Raider when shes trying to prove a point....
