Re: Poll: Have You Thought Of Leaving Forum Because Of Politics?

if its in good humor and teasing giving each other a hard time is fine ...
be nice guys... if you want to end this kind of conduct you will stop feeding it.... or is what you really want is to be the louder troll?

Re: I Think This Forum Should Stick To Investing
And if you don't split the politics off to a separate forum, and you want this to continue to be an investing forum only for the alt-right pro-Trumpers please at least have the courtesy to let us all know so we can quit wasting our time here and find somewhere else to go that isn't going to be host...

Re: I Think This Forum Should Stick To Investing
i wont speak for Xan but i suspect we will keep things as they are.. he created a politics section to help deal with the influx of politics into everything. and it has cleaned up the other discussions area. we are ALL getting burned out on the state of the world today and on the divisiveness it is c...

Re: I Think This Forum Should Stick To Investing
the politics section can be blocked by the user at his own discretion, i am sorry if taking personal responsibility for you viewing and posting choices is difficult.. but it would not be in keeping with the forums ethos to impose top down government (admin) restrictions on what you can and cant talk...

Re: Whoa: Nearly a Third of Democrats Believe the Election Was Stolen From Trump
i am not personally in favor of blocking, however there is a dramatic difference between intelligent debate and trolling, and the trolls don't add to the debate ... they wont be missed by those who no longer see their posts.. blocking a poster is a personal choice, i hope the frustration with trolls...
