Default Oh... I got to go...

Wow...

I cannot believe we censor material in a "OFF TOPIC" section, because the topicwas "Off Topic," and a percentage of ignorant individuals walk into a "CLEARLY" identifiedposting and complain!

You do not like politics... then stay the hell out of topics that are clearly identified as such!

I will not associate myself with a forum that policesposts based on theignorance and immaturity of a few individuals.

As Solar has said before... we are dealing with individuals that played sports, where score did not matter and everyone was a winner. People that got everything they ever wanted because it was handed to them on a silver platter. Want to know why our country is going down the toilet...

In all likelihood... this will be my last post in this forum... I enjoyed the company of most here... it was good to be around some individuals with sharp wit. But I will not be censored in an "OFF TOPIC" section of a forum, because I posted "OFF TOPIC!" Give me a Break!!!

Craig, we are simply givingpolitics a time out until we decide what's gonna be done about all the anger that seems to get stirred up by a few people.

I agree, an Off Topic section is just that. A section for discussing things other than Monte Carlos. If you don't want to discuss anything off topic, don't go into the section.

We don't want to see ignorance and immaturity of a few ruin this site. And lately, that's been happening. So we're trying to do something about it. Not discussing politics is hopefully only temporary.

Craig,
Sorry to hear you feel this way. I suspect Space is feeling the same and that's why he decided to take some time off?

The forums won't be the same unless you're here. We all owe you a lot. For all the hard work you put into each signature you did for all of us.

Please re-think your decision.

RJ

I agree with RJ, don't leave Craig. You are extremely mature and insightful and your contributions are priceless.

As for me, I have not done anything any different then I've done for the past 18 months.

My problem is that I've been calous to the newbees by not realizing that some are truly offended by my conservative views.

Just as religion and politics are taboo in family & friend circles, so it must be here now for a bit.

I will back off for a while too.

Anyone who I've disagreed with is welcome topm me their paypal and will get $5 to buy a beer as a peace offering.

Only taking the first 5 requests.

I told you it would only be temporary.
The three threads that were being discussed are back.
I've posted a new message at the top of this section, but I'll give ya the gist of it here.

The Off Topic section is just that. It's for discussing topics other than Monte Carlos.
Anyone who doesn't want to go off topic, should not come into the Off Topic section. Complaining in the off topic section that people are not discussing Monte Carlos is ridiculous.

People are to be aware that politics is going to be discussed in the Off Topic section. If you don't want to discuss politics on this site, DON'T GO INTO THE POLITICAL THREADS. If you're not able to discuss politics in a civilized manner, DON'T GO INTO THE POLITICAL THREADS.
As on any forum site, when posting, follow the Forum's Rules. But this should be obvious to everyone by now.

Anyone who continues to cause problems after being warned will be dealt with by the MCF staff.

Taz... the immature person who caused all of this was me. I am going to stop messing with the political threads. I'm the one to blame, not the other mature people of this forum who can handle themselves.
