Thread Moves

Mods, thanks.

I was this close [] to starting a thread about why was there so much politics in this forum. I was thinking I did not have an understanding of what the D&T stood for.

I think politics are great, you guys can hash them out all you want, but now I don't to trip over all of these topics. Originally Posted by tigercat

That had nothing to do with politics though.

Rather a combo of the old guard not wanting change when in fact change is the only constant. IMHO

JB,

This forum has long been usurped and made unreadable for those of us who don't come to ECCIE.net for political discussions.

That being said, I never thought D & T had much traction, but now at least the forum's original charter may have some meaning.

Maybe a politics only forum could be started for those who are interested.

The politics left, but the snarkiness remains! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!


BTW: Didn't you post in the Feedback section that if they took politics out of D&T you would close your account? Originally Posted by Marshall

Ok in all fairness to Marshall...that did make me laugh...

I can vouch that the girl can refine it up or refine it down depending on expectations. All in all she is a class act if treated with respect.

And I agree about the move, it seemed every time I went into D&T every single thread was politics and bashing each other...Obviously we are never all going to have the same view points on certain issues, Politics definitely being one of them. I'm all for a good debate, as sometime I read something that perhaps I hadn't thought about before, but just slagging people off back and forth was getting old...

Exactly what constitutes "high end?" I would not want to step afoul of the new regulations and be sanctioned. Originally Posted by atlcomedy

Now Alt, you know that's been hashed over in thread after thread. Let's just say that if you think you're talking about a high end girl and I think she's a floozie, you win the argument.

Calling them that might have contributed.

Yes, unless they have a direct bearing on hobbying and that relationship is detailed in the thread.
