    We can always use the World Events as sort of our "Politic and World News Forum" Seeing that some people like to debate about that kind of stuff, and most of the members don't.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    It's been relegated to sub-forum already. It's not harming anyone by sitting there waiting for something big to happen.
    Besides I still don't see how it was flamed any worse than most other forums.

    I say what I think. If you disagree, then that is up to you.

    The flaming there usually gets noticed and taken care of quickly anyways. So it shouldn't be a real concern.

    When I'm cranky and looking to bust some heads, I go into World Events hoping to find someone stepping just a *little* out of line so that I can go postal...

    Problem is, everybody's always behaving when I go in.

    If you want, I can go on about how I don't like the Chinese. It wouldn't necessarily be true, but I'd stick my neck out for a friend.

    Most people don't want to talk about FFMQ but for those of us who do then were do we go? Sure you can say general FF but I can say the same for the FEW topics on world events that get brought up. Just post it in General Chat or EoEO.

    Yeah Eds got a point. If you make one forum based around an atrocity of mankind that destroyed lives and the reputations of people worldwide then surely you should make two.

    I say we keep it, because you don't know if there'll be a lot of complaints if "Bush or some Democrat" wins the Presidency next year.

    The invasion of Tibet was unacceptable.

    Which would probably limited to 1 or 2 threads at the most. How many different topics are need to complain about who won? Unless it is a whole Court decision like last year when the election just wouldn't end.

    No one is going to dicuss the primaries or how bush may not be on the ballot in some states because the GOPs national convention falls after a lot of states deadline to put a canidate on the ballot. No one cares about that kind of stuff besides me and maybe like 2 other people.

    I say the forum should go(I'm just saying).

    It is ultimatly up to you guys. I just feel that forum takes up space that could be deleted. It will be just like before that forum existed where most of those topics dropped like a rock because no one cares about them. Then people will learn to post only news that is either crazy and we can all make fun of or something big.

    You should make an "Old News" forum, where people can talk about the stuff that would have belonged in those forums that were deleted. So, you'd have a Study Hall-World Events(possible)-Xenogears forum. It'd be awesome.
