I personally like the main forum as it is - but this has been shot across the bow a couple times, and glad to see the poll and results not surprising.
That said - the 'political' forum side currently has no sponsor, use is limited to a single digit percentage... and because people can't seem to help themselves but devolve conversations into personal pot shots and even direct attacks - it also has a very disproportionate percentage of Mod time spent on it. With lots of other forums more appropriate for that kind of discourse, going to see a poll on it's future. Certainly it's going to need a sponsor for it to continue imho.
I can see your point. I don't read or post over there. I didn't realize how bad it was. And if you're spending a disproportionate amount of time playing babysitter over there, then yeah, something probably needs to be done. Maybe charge people to post over there... :devil: kidding, of course. But if it's that bad, please don't allow that kind of stuff over here. If it's such a small group, tell them "Sorry, you'll need to take your ranting elsewhere".
