If POLITICAL threads were banned from CS what would you all talk about?
Cats, dogs, knitting, cooking, the latest boring reality show? WHAT
Would these boards revert to fluffy threads? Mind you the fluffy touchy feely threads can get rather agro as well.
So if the political threads get banned what would the mob then go after and say.. WE DONT LIKE threads about cats or dogs or cooking etc and we want to ban these threads as well..
Where would their banning stop
So what would these forums be like with no political threads...... all touchy feely and fluffy?

Yes. All of the above 😄
Personally I don't really care anymore whether the political threads have their own board. I don't open most of them. Some I do but not the spam ones.

perhaps it would be better if you didn;t constantly spam with newsltd articles. a person can find that tripe themselves if so inclined, why not try writing up the posts yourself ?

They don't need to be banned,maybe they need their own spot somewhere.
If i want to read whinging about FVF i go to Selling
If i want to read whinging about feedback & the time it takes to receive an item,i go to Buying
If i want to see Caturday & Fursday(& yes i really do want to see that) i come to here.
Simples.

that's the trouble isn't it? if all the ppl that like to pontificate political went off to another board the pool of contributors here would become very small.
yet if we could chase the fun & gamers off to another board by common consensus i don't see why the politickers should't get the same privilege.
either that or bring fun & games back here and widen the pool of contributors.

If they are given their own board and not permitted here.
They would be banned here aka off topic/reportable.

if political threads were banned, wanna be pollies would go back to doing what they do best, selling goldfish for example
