I could get behind, or shall I say in the middle of, that!

How about No.

Politics comes across in all places, to include funny pics.

We have food in 'cruits threads. DL comments in OL and WR threads. They all have a place, many jokingly, in all the threads.

This isn't my rule, it's been an unwritten rule here for ages. Politics is too divisive, this coming from someone who frequents that board. A lot of people specifically avoid the Politics board for that reason, there's no reason the pics can't go over there. That's where I post my memes too. This thread is about fun, not debate.

lol we're really doing the whole "No politics guyz!11!" when it's literally always the same person who starts it? Always a mystery why that person never gets called out and it's only after someone from the other side posts something hmmmmmm.

Anyways, forgot to respond to this since I guess gram gram jumped on the keyboard and didn't quote it. I don't think you live in a trailer park, maybe just a retirement home and maybe she's "twice as bad" because the dentures slip out easily when you're getting your lil red rocket polished off.

Ahhhh... The old "unwritten rule".

Always wondered where those threads went-looked them up and yep, there is an area for politics. Interesting that they don't pop up with new posts.

Dude, I called out both sides, no need to get your panties in a bunch. I've been a bit busy this week, mother-in-law passed away and had a kid in the ER, otherwise it would have been said sooner. I think you can see from the back and forth garbage comments over the last page that political posts here only lead to negativity, which is really the exact opposite theme of the thread. It just makes sense to keep that stuff over on the Politics board where it belongs. I think you would agree that this back and forth is just unnecessary clutter.

I believe the mods decided to hide the Politics board posts from the Front Page because it can often drive a lot of activity during down periods and it's not a great look if all the New Posts on an ND board are about Politics. If you're subscribed to a Politics thread it should still show up in your notifications though.

Sorry to hear. It does seem like you were able to like a post in this thread before Cal posted and then decided to "both sides". It just gets tired and old really quickly when there is one side that adheres to the unwritten rule and only ever is there some sort of "pushback" when the side that adheres to the rule pipes up.

I don't know, maybe it's just me, but maybe calling someone Jihad spice and saying they married their brother maybe should elicit more of a response than just tagging the Dumb and Dumber poster.

Self regulate more, there's only one poster who continually starts political shit outside of the political threads. You want to clean this threads up? Start there.

I don't show that I posted in this thread from the time Bishop's post went up till Cal's did. I already PM'd him about it. I'm not a mod or anything, and it's an unwritten rule of course, but here we are still cluttering up the thread with off topic garbage right? Can we agree that all this back and forth doesn't really belong here, which is kind of why it's a suggestion to leave the politics out? All this is pretty childish, there's no sense pointing the finger when both sides are guilty. All this discussion just doesn't fit with the spirit of the thread. In the words of the great Oddball, don't hit me with them negative waves, man.

This board has always welcomed fans from other teams as long as they follow the rules. Quite frankly you WANT other fans because they can help drive discussions and bring other points of view. I used to be over on Buckeye Planet, the admin welcomed Irish posters from another board over for the '05 Fiesta. I hung around for several years because they were cool, but at some point some new posters started pushing opposing fans out. Now that board, which used to be much more active than IE with twice the members, is a shell of it's former self. Circle jerks get boring. Bishop has been an active member for 13 years now, he's a part of this community.
