That's where effective moderation comes in.

Any change is good change I guess. However I must stress that liberal/conservative forums was never a point of contention. what most of those who want change are pushing for is a forum that doesn't have a political lean, but stronger mod oversight.

I will agree to what GTS is proposing because my guess is that this is the best he will agree on.

In the real world, you suck it up if someone disagrees with you or offends you.

no, I'm proving the point that you suddenly don't deal with the barest amount of conflict very well. you're one of the primary bomb throwers on the left around here, and suddenly, like, TODAY, you can't stand disagreement?

give me a break.

"any change is good" a just a silly thing to say. even if that was the low water mark for common sense in that reply, there wasn't much to look forward to.

I'm ALL FOR IT!!! Get it going and all are welcome in our neck of the woods. (Liberal Place) Hell I vote to call it "Life Long Learners post here" Start the shyt that's polluted the spin room and you go back to the spin room. There has to be a civilized place where we can bounce ideas off each other and the Spin Room has been over run. Sorry it just has.
