Politics, while they can be volitle, they are an every day part of life in free countries. In fact they are an essential part of life in a democratic form of government. I just find it surprising that the topic seems to be taboo for non members and chaperoned for members. A lot of constructive dialogue was missed in an event as important as the past presidential election. Again I understand it is XI's choice, I just think it is odd.

We have people from all over the world in this clan with one thing in common - we like to play the same games. Politically we are all very different. If it were proven that we could have reasoned dialog on politics with one another, then perhaps the administrators would have continued to allow the political topics to be in these forums for everyone. But we proved, time and again, that we were incapable of it. Sadly, the chasm of divisiveness that has engulfed our country and spawned all kinds of petty, unreasonable discourse, routinely finds its way into any discussion of politics in this forum. I for one get enough "real world" stuff in the Real World. I don't need more of it here. Sonovabich, LordOfChaos, Guybrush and 4 others 7 Awards

We have the Political and Religious topics in a special forum, and everyone must "request" to have their name added to access that thread is all. Some do not wish to participate, and we have had some controversy in the past, so our simple solution is to grant access to those who desire to see those threads, and the rest of us will not see it if we do not want to participate in a political or religious thread.

Simple. Admittedly I do not know the history nor have I seen any disrespectful political commentary since I have visited the servers. Not having seen any evidence of it being controversial or difficult to admin I just thought it very odd to avoid political dialogue which is an active everyday topic in many lives.

Simple. yea and I tried many time to get you to join XI to attend our discussion in politics you camping SOB. I always enjoyed your conversation. Too bad you are from PA and you hate Texas and you visit here often. SOB!!!!!!!!!! (sorry SOB) I dropped the political forum as trust me Shamu........... you will get pissed at the ignorance. Especially mine. lol Here in the US and other... we are all fucked and I have accepted that. Going to make the best of it as it happens until it does and..... IT WILL. Look at the prices of food. Have you all seen them rise or seen as the contents of the packaging get smaller and smaller since 2001? Just the beginning. Remember I said Obama will be elected again... THANKS TO THE MEDIA. Anyone that does not see that is not paying attention. Nothing to discuss anymore in politics... I am done with it all. Blinders on peoples eyes is a common. I even like to wear them myself. Looks way better at times. Admittedly I do not know the history nor have I seen any disrespectful political commentary since I have visited the servers. Not having seen any evidence of it being controversial or difficult to admin I just thought it very odd to avoid political dialogue which is an active everyday topic in many lives.

The political forum was specifically created for that reason. In the past, political subject matter has caused ill will within the group. We are above all a gaming comunity, free to have fun and enjoy each others company. I agree, we should have a spot for politics on our site, but it shouldnt be a priority. We are here to have fun, lets make that our priority. TecHnOBoY, DEEJAYKEG, Shamu and 4 others 7 Awards
