POLITICS NOT General. I don’t even come here anymore since that is ALL that’s talked about.
Who REALLY Cares.

Politics brings out the passionate response in many.  The people who post think it means something.  Some are more animated in their belief than others.  I respond on the political things for my own reasons but I wish that more people in the region would post about things going on in the communities.  I’d like to hear of entertainment and so on going on in the communities but I suspect if that was posted someone would complain about that.  There was a person who posted lots about dogs and various other topics early on which I found sometimes interesting and sometimes not but people complained, I’d say he was bullyed, on the forum and to the administrator to the point he had his own account removed.  If you have topics that you want to post, you should post them.  Post other topics and drown out the political stuff, or simply ignore the political.  Post and push the others to the bottom of the list-although, I think that was a complaint about the guy who closed his own account.

Why not just start a New Topic called Political Views or something, and post everything within it instead of soooooo many diff topics is all I meant.
That way you wouldn’t have to shuffle thru so much.

I can usually tell whether the topic is political or not by reading the topic’s title on the 1st page when I click onto General Topics.

Besides, I would have missed meeting people like you, Dana—(And seeing your Beautiful Avatar)—

It can be a pain in the wazoo to wade thru the lot.  Good idea.

Thank You ynot….I mean, I’m not against it, I just think since it’s a BIG issue, and they don’t have a “Special” place for it on here….why not post a New Topic pertaining to that alone, and then post all replies within that Posting. It would weed out having to look thru pages, and pages.
