It would be like someone who hates SH3 going to the SH3 forum and replying to thread after thread, not with something meaningful regarding the questions being asked or issues being reported or experiences being shared, but with some angry rant about how much SH3 sucks. Over and over again, until it drowns out almost everything else.

If all you have to say is that you think Obama sucks, fine. But if that's the primary or only sentiment you have to add to a discussion about some topic on a political or social issue, it gets old. Really fast.
Like that's never happened anywhere on Subsim before.

I love the fact that the biggest argument in the Obama thread is whether or not it is the right place to have an argument about Obama.
