Just a current event on the state of the mkt and the downgrade,thats all. I've seen a heeluva lot worse threads live and that one should've as well,at least unless it became contetious(which it wasn't),then delete it. I think it was wrong to delete it,but i dont have the gold so i dont make the rules.

I locked the thread (and maybe deleted it by accident).
Please stop talking politics or speculating on the causes of this economic catastrophe or that religions nut jobs.
Please take it to cnn or myreligionisright.com ...there you can spar with others just a passionate.

Not here.
I am trying to sleep.

Kudos to Ody to shutting the politcal threads down.
If the idiots that start these threads can't follow the rules keep breaking the rules they deserve to be banned.

Why are there folks that think they are so intelligent that they can speak to complicated political topics too fucking stupid to understand that these topics are not welcome on here? You can't make it up.

Why can't people ignore threads they know will offend them?


Why cant people just accept the Terms of Use? Oh wait you already did.

Outside of the Zoho incident, political topics generate the most Report to Moderator clicks, PMs and emails than anything else. We tried ensuring that POLS were labelled as such. That didnt keep people out or keep the hyperbole from spiralling out of decency.

So now the policy is NO POLITICAL THREADS.

Dont whine when I lock/delete your opinion. Dont complain when you do it so often that I finally ban you.
I have so many better things to do than monitor the boards to make sure that certain posters are not pissing in the pool. "YOU! Yes you. GTFO."

Now lets talk about Vegas.

People seriously do this?? I can just see the emails.....

Dear Mr. Moderator,

I have been a loyal LVA subscriber for 3 days, and I come to LVA for the best Las Vegas information. The political threads have to go however. If they don't, not only will I avoid this site in the future, but I will advise my entire group of 2 friends to do the same.

Thank-you,
A. Loser
