Title: Why are you guys so...
Post by: Samwise on February 25, 2003, 06:15:11 AM
...eager to talk about war/politics etc.? Half of the off-topic threads nowadays are of a political nature. What happend to having fun, making pics, telling jokes etc.? This is one of the reasons I like OT less and less.

But to each his own... if you absolutely must make every thread about politics and war, then be my guest. Just don\'t expect me to participate. :o

Why aren\'t you on msn sammy, I want to sexually punish err talk to u.

Most people tend to talk about the topics of the day. Well lately it’s been mostly on war in the news. So that\'s what’s being talked about.

How bout if we just take 20 of our top gamers and 20 of their top gamers and the winner gets the pink slip to the others country (crosses finger and prays that there are no ps2 gamers in Iraq)

Actually IMO, thats what makes it so great. You get so many different inputs from various cultures. I love reading views other than what Im force fed on the news in my own country.

Why would you want to limit the kind of topics here?

luckee, the great thing about this country is that you do not have to be force fed anything. You can choose to believe what you want and say what you want.

Oh, for the rest, one more thing, penis, gay, homo.

I know, but it kinda sucks when you are only seeing one view of everything. Thats a big reason why I keep comming back to OT despite certain members.

Cuz America is on the verge of war.  That is the only logical response I can give.

If you don\'t like the political topics, make some other good ones.  Otherwise, don\'t complain.

B/c then the good people that want to get rid of "spam" would consider that to be "spam" then they would call the thread starter a "spammer" then everybody would start making fun of that "spammer". Kind of like what happened to vapor.

B/c you still have to wade through 88 topics of why America sux or "where is God" or whatever horse it is someone is beating the hell out of today.

I think a better idea would be to think before you post "Has this already been posted 100 times before or is no one going to care about this?" and if the answer is yes then don\'t hit the submit button.

Trying to find a good topic here is like a needle in a haystack.  The only ones I click on are b/c of the poster.

We could just make a whole new forum. The political forum.

But it\'ll probably die down after the whole world is destroyed.

Bleh, that wouldn\'t change the fact that there would still be a gazillion on the other threads. But I guess it doesn\'t matter now anyway.

I couldn\'t give a flying fu** about war etc, if it happens, it happens, there\'s nothing we can do.
