A proposal

Post by Midnyte_Ragebringer »

I propose a left and right Current Events forum be made. It's obvious many from the left hate to hear a differing point of view, so lets give them their own forum. We right leaning folks won't go there. The right CE forum can be open to all, because we don't mind it. We enjoy the heated exchange of ideas. I don't particularly enjoy constant being falsely accused of being a racist and a bigot every day, but I'm big enough to handle it and the rest of us seem to be as well.

While I have to grudgingly admit that I wouldn't mind something like that, it would defeat the purposes of having an actual debate forum where people of unlike ideals can come and post.

After all, there's like what, a grand total of 5-7 conservatives that post here anyways?

Because the right is so tolerant. :roll:

And I agree with Akaran, but I think it would just end up like Kwon's old forum. I can see the tumbleweed go by as I write this.

Just an idea :) hehe

I agree with the fuck em concept as well.

I've said this before....no matter what has been said by anyone on these boards, I would still relish the opportunity to sit down over a coffe or beer with anyone on these boards and talk about anything. I think these boards are a great release, but still nothing beats a great interpersonal encounter.

Nope, no vomiting. That was sort of my finisher. The group I hang out with many times has a cup of coffee at the end of a drinking night. Doesn't really do anything, just sort of became a tradition.

See, now I don't think I could do that. There's a couple people here I genuinely dislike from their comments (if you think it, you act it) and would be hard pressed to stay in the same room as them. :(

Yeah, I seem to remember how Midnyte put me on ignore for stating something that was somewhat obvious. Nice Tolerance...

So I have a counter proposal Mid.

Go here http://www.phpbb.com and set this up on your computer. I think in your case an internet connection is unnecessary.

Actually, I took both you and Teeny off yesterday, because that was wrong of me. I should be able to read differing opinions of myself and topics I feel passionately about. mmmkay?

I also told myself I will refrain from responding to moronic comments....okay after this one.

I bet fat people don't like constantly being referred to as "that fat guy" either, but they take it too, because they know they are.

There is a possibility that Midnyte isn't all those bad things people say about him, he could just be a brilliant troll doing an anthropological study.

Sorry, no, that's not even remotely possible.. me culpa.

This is a moronic suggestion. Why have a board for the Rightees and Lefties to blow each other independant of argument?

That is ignorant, if people don't want to hear the other side? Too bad, who wants to argue when everyone agrees? That's no fun at all!
