    Works for Me

    ck1942 already spends more time (than absolutely necessary) observing this forum.

    Thinking perhaps it has outlived it's worthiness -- this is a HOBBY community, not a POLITICAL community -- perhaps ALL POLITICS should be about the hobby?

    ¿Cómo no?!!


    The part I bolded sounds like a good idea to me. To avoid "inadvertent" bumping of non-hobby political threads, I propose that the old, non-hobby political threads be locked. I understand, more work in the short term for the Guides, but hopefully, less work in the long term.

    Agreed! I have suggested essentially the same thing on multiple occasion in the short time we've been back over here.

    Let’s try and put down the Pom Poms and start debating real life hobby politics!

    And those topics would be:

    Abortion?
    Human trafficking?
    Local/state/national legislation regarding sex working/workers?
    Social mores?


    (Fill in the blanks)

    Why can’t we have both? We all know the lines will overlap anyway. As long as the forum guidelines are followed....what’s the problem?

    I don’t know. Apparently, following the rules isn’t enough.

    The guidelines really have been followed for the most part.. Occasionally some of us have been reprimanded but this is a different site than eccie was. Ck tolerates very little drama, hey it's his site his rules. I think all of us can admit that NONE of our political threads really stay on topic.. However isn't that a reflection on our entire society today ????

    I have no problem with ck’s rules and never been reprimanded here or on the E (maybe a few warnings when I pushed the envelope) It’s about self control.

    Do you want both or do you need both?

    In terms of the part I bolded, we can reflect society or we can provide a bright, shining example for society. Yes, I'm joking.

    Like I said....what’s the difference? I’d love to hear everyone’s take on Yssup’s topics above....Who knows, you might be surprised by mine. Just because most of my views are hard line conservative...doesn’t mean they all are. I may be conservative but I’m not cookie-cutter conservative....js
