Why can't we talk about politics or religion??I always thougth debates were healthy.Its not like politics aren't in Joe.Look at the jugglers,political puppetmasters.I've always wondered why and would love fir a mod to come in and clarify.Or does it just boil down to people having their feelings hurt,thats why we can't talk about it.

I am the administrator of www.jedi.net and i have to say that both topics usually do nothing but cause trouble and flame wars. We've recentlly begun to allow them after a long time ban on the topics and the other admins and mods have to be on top of the threads constantly. Jedi.net is not near as active as this site so I made the decision to allow the topics to beef up activity. But with a site as active as the tank I admire the staff here for taking a hard stance and not wanting to ruin a great site with flame wars.

I agree that they do start flame wars and whatnot.If everyone would just be adult about it,you could help everyone understand different things.I accept the fact that everyone has different views,i like having discussions with people like that.If helps understand something you might know nothing about.
"If everyone could be adult about it"...is the key phrase in that sentence, Lt. Unfortunately, not to "knock" anyone, but that isn't the case. Discussion turns in to debate, debate turns in to argumentative flaming, flaming turns in to bans, etc. Michael, thanks for your insight on the topic ;) You're dead on, bud. |

yeah, I don't really want to visit a website full of "My candidate is better than your candidate" and "my religion is better than your religion", that just wouldn't be fun and feelings would get hurt, no matter what. and very few people could be adult about it, this is a website where mostly 30-something year olds talk about toys, no offense
