Is it about time The " Mods " Got rid of all the SPAM Political threads.

[sniper_patrol]

I'm not even going to bother with a Poll as it usually gets bombarded with folk who have multiple I.D's to secure the poll in their favour.

I mean seriously, these select posters and we all know to whom I am referring need to be stopped. All this SPAM about the Liberal Party is becoming a nuisance.

Yes I know, If I don't like it, then don't read it. Pfffftt

Your thoughts without a poll.;-)

That makes me hungry just thinking about it.

I haven't reads this entire thread (much the same as I rarely read the poli one's), but all are entitled to open a discussion on whatever they see fit on a public forum.

However, I would like it made mandatory that the thread has to advise it's  Political nature in it's title, just so I know which one's not to bother going into 😛

Is it about time The " Mods " Got rid of all the SPAM censorship threads?

personally, no drama for me, if any threads are of no interested i scroll past or don't click them ..including political ones

how hard is it?

Exactly...no one is holding a gun to peoples heads to make them read the political threads..I have been reading these boards for years and there have been literally thousdands of threads that I have never opened ..simply because they do not interest me.

I have no problem with the political threads.....some I read, some I don't.

What annoys me is when the arguments and jibes trickle over into non political threads

Can I just reply here??? 

I have not roasted them yet... will do on Wednesday... working tomorrow so can't do it then... 

but the pumpkin soup was sensational... omg... I even got fresh bakery bread to go with it today... heaven...

I haven't seen any nastiness from Cat but then I've only been participating on here on & off for a short time.

I like cats posts, they are usually calm & to the point. Raking up old emnitites is a very nasty thing to do because it leaves the person with no defence against such a slur. The old posters should move on & leave the past in the past.

Also, trying to shut down certain posters for their political views is disgraceful & an attack on the community spirit.

If you don't like, then don't read.

There should be more awareness of how government decisions affect our lives.

The decisions that pollies make should be on our behalf and if they are not then we as taxpayers need to know.

Unfortunately there is a vast number of voters who are either illinformed or not informed at all.

Sadly there is also a vast number who just dont care and just say Baaaaa!

how on earth can you say that ? perpetuating (mostly) falsehoods is not informing people, its known as BS in this country (until you lot came along anyway)

Yum...my favourite soup, with a dollop of yoghurt in the middle and Garlic Bread. 

So are you growing your own pumpkins?  Butternut is the sweetest & I'm gonna grow those when I build my next place....but back to the topic.....yes...the Ignore button has its uses. 

I tend to think the spammer is a tad lonely, and would welcome any attention even the negative kind.  Unfortunately bridges weren't just burned but napalmed......so there's not much left but the negative kind at this stage.

Not replying would help, but that shouldn't mean we can't have a discussion on what's happening in politics, even if it's only to have a laugh at their expense.

Bring back the Gillies report.  Then we might grow a sense of humour again instead of this relentless PC BS.

Gotta agree with joz again.

not hard at all, certainly a lot less effort than starting a thread about it lol

[izabsmiling]

done repeatedly could it be seen as Political Campaigning ?

Could  that be considered a form of advertising/promoting ?

[cherry*135]

Political campaign - by posting on CS (as in reposting opinion pieces & news articles from MSM):^O

Are they getting paid to post political threads? If so, who is funding them?
