Subject: Lift the ban on political discussion in the Flood

I may not ever get the chance to say this again but I feel in recent months the flood has grown up slightly, I haven't seen many troll threads and when I do they're locked with in minutes, I feel like the flood is finally old enough to be able to discuss Politics.

What do you say?

no flamewars would erupt BAD flamewars do you want that?

Seeing as a few days ago there was a huge fuss in this forum about a commotion in The Flood...

No.

I don't think the ninjas or Achronos will ever believe for one second that the Flood has grown up enough to hold a mature, responsible discussion; I certainly wouldn't.

Its never ever a flame war, its always a debate where everyone exaggerates and says it is a flame war. There is a different between a debate and a flame war, they both have arguing however but a debate is "Hey man, I respect your opinions but here is why I think your opinion on this particular subject is wrong." where as a flame war would be "Hey man as much as you think your opinion is important, its not you're worthless and your parents never loved you."

Which is pretty much standard for the Flood anytime I dare browse through the mess there. No.

Yeah... no.

That will do infinitely more harm than good.

Exactly not one of you can find a recent political thread that went sour because of a flame war.

This thread just proves the Flood isn't as bad as you think and the Community forum isn't that much better either.

Its not fair.

I was, but your mom left early so I had to cut the trip short.

On the 9/11 anniversary there were tons of threads just on that issue. Political discussion will never be allowed. If you want to discuss about it so badly join this group.

But ruining has been passed down for years. Here is a short (but sweet) one from 2009.
