Politics and religion is in a separate section, which I will not visit, so I am not tempted to get in heated debates that accomplish nothing except making people angry! From now on, I'll try to stick to only friendly posts! ;-)

Even aside from the religion and politics that other board had pretty much developed a personality change recently..... and that personality was mean. Not just in the NWT's. But the whole board. As soon as I would go over there it's like I would just jump in with the same attitude..... even if that really wasn't what I had in mind. I was even starting to get a bad attitude about wrestling. That is bad, as I am fairly obsessed with the sport, and almost all the people I have met face to face have been terrific.

I participate here and there solely for the opportunity to relax, have some fun and get away from the miserable news out there. The last i want is to have is a bunch of news articles on political issues staring me down. Religion, well I'll take that up on my own time. After reading some of the posts on religion and politics I can fully understand the obsession they have in the middle east. It's just not as lethal over hear.
Don't get me wrong, I wasn't suggesting the topics be eliminated, just moved to where if you want to discuss them you can when you care to.

The software is 1000000 times better here.
Oh yeah, and we don't have a nazi moderator.

I dont think anybody should be banned from a message board unless they are being threatening to someone or getting very very nasty. Which i never saw anybody on themat do that got banned. If you are gonna have a message board you better get ready for some pretty strong opinions on things. I hope this one doesnt get monitored like themat.

I hear ya on separate sections. I hate when the political talk and such is mixed in with the wrestling - there's no place for it there.
As for the forum software... I like this one's. I don't have a problem with themat's though. I like the one we use as well. When I first made my site we had a proboard forum (this kind). I forgot why I switched to InvisionFree but I'm very happy with IF so I'm not too concerned about it.

I already see a politic and/or religion thread popping up over here. |
