Should there be a politics forum... Discuss

Re: Should there be a politics forum... Discuss

Isn't dance music about crossing cultures and boundries....

Do we really want to promote poltical discussion on a dance forum?

Isn't there enough politics forums on their own?

Example of the political arguments/skirmishes on the GU board... pretty bad imo..

... Discuss...

It's precisely because dance music crosses boundries of gender, race, religion and nationality that politics is bound to be raised.

What I really appreciated about [MS] 1 is the fact that not only could we slag off/praise Sasha/Tiesto but we could also read and learn from each other on topics we might not necessarily have had much information on before.

...you should post a recommendation for a sports forum in the recommendations thread.

I already tried.

Shot down.

Yep, and i was the shooter.

And? What does that prove? You have more control around here than I do? Cool!!!!

I think I liked -e-'s explanation better.

I didn't say I was against it... I was a discuss topic.

My own view is I agree with it being kept it out of Yakkity Yak and give it its own space.

I think its a great idea. Important to keep it outta General Yakiity yak as some people dont want to get involved, and some may get offended. Enough members of this board wanna discuss political issues anyway judging by some of the last thread on current issues.

I actually liked it mixed in the the Yikkity Yak thread. I seem to forget this forum is here and it also seems to divide the site. I understand others were getting tired of the political debates (including me) but it did promote interaction. Now it seems like everyone is hiding out in their little corner of the site. I'm also finding the general section to be very shallow since the site was redone, and I believe this section being seperate has alot to do with it.
