I personally dont like the PW thread, if I wasnt Admin of this board I would never click on it but its part of what I have to do here. However I am not going to close it because I don't like it. Other people enjoy posting on there so I have to be fair.

    The same can apply for these political/religious threads. To be quite honest the threads here are actually very tame and civil. Try viewing those same threads on another forum. Its gets ugly quickly.

      I rarely go to the off topic threads, so I haven't even been aware there is some bickering going on. I suppose that I might get irritated if I find someone with an opinion that I find incongruent with reality, but I don't look for that here. I can just go home if I want that.

      This site is about fun, so I'll leave my arguments at home.

      And Chp just asked me to be his friend, so I don't want to spoil the good feelings...
      Be excellent to one another.

        Like Tall, I haven't even read the threads being mentioned. I just thought I would bring up what happened here in Nashville last winter. WakeBoardNashville.com was a really hot local site. Some people started getting very opinionated and that led to some people getting very pissy, and that led to the average posters getting turned off by all the drama and post's fell way off. That site was awesome and now no one ever post's up. Public forums are fun, but be cool. And if you don't like where a post is going... STAY AWAY. I would hate to see what happened to our local wake site happen here.

          Well said. Good Job Matt! I enjoy the fact that you let us be pretty open and do not be a nazi and stuff. Thanks for being a great Mod!!

            Ok my you are the AD so it really should not be about fair ! It should be about what is best for the community and we the members of this community should police that. I guess when it gets to bad bring the fire and brimstone

              I think that those threads will be dying a slow death over the next few days/weeks anyways. The BCS thread is cool as it is really doesn't deal with reality, just fans opinions of their favorite college football teams, it too will be done with within a short time.

                I had to go check out these threads to see what all the fuss was about. I agree with MG. BUT, the swastika flag has no place here!

                  This may not sit well with some, but Obama's quick rise to popularity and power can be compared to Hitlers. Read up on the pre-ww2 history

                    So, when do you think he'll be setting up the concentration camps?

                      Not saying that! At the time, Germany was in a horrible economic state and the people were desperate for change (see the resemblance) Hitler told them what they wanted to hear and they lifted him to the most powerful position in the country. In tern, his moving speeches blinded them to what was really going on.

                      Not calling him Hitler, not saying he will do what Hitler did, just a similarity to their rise to power in such a short time Draw your own conclusion.

                        So, you are saying that because there is some similarity between how the two quickly came to power, we should be cool with displaying a flag that has come to stand for the death of thousands of people, genocide, and racism in general? WTF???

                          Sorry if that is your interpretation on my original post. Just saying bad things may happen if "we" dont snap out of this Obama trance this country is under.

                          Sounds like you are looking for a fight that doesnt exist in me, good night, have a great weekend.

                            Not looking for a fight. I didn't even bring up Obama. Just looked to me like you were refuting my original post by pointing out the similarities between O & H. All I was saying is that a flag that stands for blah blah blah shouldn't be here.

                            Cheers
