Default Sub Forum For Polit/Relig threads...

I know Im a newbie, but this is a big thing of mine. Other Forums I frequent tend to have seperate sub-boards (Rooms) for these topics. That way folks who don't want to delve in, don't have to be bombarded by them. Just a suggestion, thanks again for the great site and all your outstanding efforts!!! I wish you both the best of luck!!

I agree, I do think it would be good to establish these sorts of ground rules before everyone gets used to things being a certain way.

I, personally, would avoid religious threads altogether!

Ok, we have created a new forum called "We've Got Issues..." for these types of discussions. View at your own discretion.

I hate political threads. We all know govt. is controlled by special interest anyhow. FDA - all bs. If they can't make money on it then lets ban it. That's the end of my political speak.

oops - Go Ron Paul
