Ozymandias:
The threat of Jeph being annoyed with INTENSE POLITICAL ARGUMENTS and locked yet another random forum is enough potential harm for me to agree with Anyways.

Sox:
If Jeph doesn't like it, he shouldn't read it. It's an easy decision. Your biggest worry should be Jeph coming in here and seeing a bunch of asshats incapable of handling a political debate. If these so-called 'political arguments' were really the threat you think they are, we'd have seen a lot more locks in the past few weeks than we have. Fortunately, we are good at political debate and such action hasn't been required.

Stay calm, if you don't like it, don't read it. If you're really as worried as you're trying to convey, stay out of the thread and don't make the situation any worse by complaining about it. I hope I won't need to repeat this again.

sean:
Sox, this thread should be locked. Political talk is clearly against the rules and having this thread is way too dangerous. The only reason why this thread hasn't been locked is cause we really only have one active mod (Harry (Inlander))

Basically, the thread is a land mine and if we keep it open much longer, somebody's gonna fucking step on it. 

And jeph is no stranger to locking forums. Go look at the sandbox and don't be stupid, or whatever its called.

Wow, for a guy who's only been here a week you sure are acting like you own the place.

Sox:
Several threads were moved and/or locked in the time this thread has been active. There are active mods and they have seen this thread. Threads don't get dangerous as long as people are being sensible. That is why they haven't been locked, yet. Inlander said it best when he said "I won't lock this thread...because I shouldn't have to."

I took a look at the old, locked forums. They weren't locked because of arguments or political debate. They were locked because of immaturity. Please realise that the complaints are quite possibly the loudest parts of these discussions. They're obviously having zero-impact and serve only to create more fuss where there shouldn't be any. If you don't want locked forums, prove that you are capable of handling these debates. They're not against the rules because Jeph hates politics and religion. I'm fairly certain that Jeph is a sane and rational man. The reason they are against the rules is because he doesn't think we can handle it. That's the only rational explanation. Show him that you can handle a little heated discussion like an adult, like KharBevNor, A Pack Of Wolves, Tommydski, Switchblade, Schimmy, Jhocking, Ruyi and many others that I can not remember off the top of my head.
