Eventually this website is going to grow huge, and past the current of how most everyone knows each other, respects each other, and is friends with each other. Eventually we will have members here who are here to just start trouble, and this seems to be the norm in almost all of mbworlds political, and religious threads. So i must ask, what should we do now since we are small and can come up with good plans for this. I know im not a mod, but this is my vacation MB site, to get away from all the douchbaggy high horseness of mbworld.

Should politics/religion be allowed, and if so should there be a subsection with a warning and how moderated should it be? We got people like amgdriven, who want to actually fight jangy and sean if you read the Screw Iran thread.

Fred, one side of me wants to agree with you, but on the other hand it will technically promote the politics and will be tough to control and moderate. The only benefit I see is to keep the Off-Topic section clean, since I really think all this politics is just clutter.
I could sit there and argue back and forth with the best of them, but I'm surprised why someone would waste so much time, since politics are more opinion based than fact. People will not reason and understand, they will argue what they know.

Let's fight. :rofl: J/k

Right now there are no plans to add a subforum based on the fact that there are zero threads I can remember regarding political topics. If and when it comes about then yes, we'll consider adding the subforum.

The same rules will apply to political topics as it does for the entire OT forum. Discuss anything you want but once members start insulting or attacking one another then Staff is going to lay the smack down. No favorites, if a member is found to be the source of the problem they will be disciplined. If people can't have a civilized discussion where a difference in opinion is likely, then they need to keep their mouths shut.

LOL! Nah, it's just common sense. People are going to have difference in opinions. Respect that and move on. Attacking someone isn't going to change their opinion.
