I would comment, but then I'd probably be Drunk Tanked. That is the next step, right?
Nah, they only do that for people who go on spamming/abusive rampages. Go around posting in every thread that Cloud no. 9 sucks and should be forced to eat his own lungs, and then you might just be in with a chance.
Don't quit your day job, Raist.
...what other job would I be searching for? O_o
elyse should come back
Or you know, everyone could just start behaving themselves. If coming in there and kicking your asses is what it'll take for you to appreciate the existence of a forum in which to discuss world topics maturely, then by gum I'll do it. I just thought maybe most people would be a little better than that. Guess I was wrong. Here I go!
Signature by rubah. I think.

I tried that for a while. I closed every World Events thread that got spammy or flamey. It didn't work, though - people just made more threads, rather than using their brains and changing the way they post.
The solution is obviously to ged rid of the forum and prohibit political discussion, seeing as this is, you know, a FINAL FANTASY FORUM. Go somewhere else where your pro/anti-Bush comments will be appreciated.
The forum was created(if I am not mistaken) because people kept wanting to discuss terrorist attacks, random news article and such and such. Some people complained that it flooded EoEO and it did but the flow was never going to stay THAT high to warrent its own forum and I think that is the case now for the most part. It is like the Xenogears board. It just isn't ment to be.
I never liked that World Events was created and I still don't. I don't see why the occasional new article has to be dicussed there. The only time it is really bad for any forum is usually once every two years(US elections) and when something big happens like the London Bombings, Iraq invasion or 9/11/2001. Outside of that the forum is usually pretty dead.
EotW also serves as a venue for political discussion. Now if only people would stop being so stubborn about their views vs. other people's views, we'd have a decent forum.
No way. Haven't you ever seen a political 'Debate'
Where do you stand on this?
Guy one: Blah blah blah blah
Guy two: Guy one is wrong because blah blah blah
Guy one: Now that just doesn't make any sense because of blah blah blah
Guy two: Your just wrong and I am right!
View at home: Huh? That is to complicated to understand.
Not to mention all of the poorly typed posts.
If we got rid of Eyes on the World, I wouldn't miss it much. You're askin' for that kind of thing when it comes to politics, so maybe it's out of place in a forum where the average age is... what, 17?

We can't stop people from discussing politics, etc. and I would much rather have those threads segregated into one forum than have them turning up in GC or EoEO if it was gotten rid of.
