I agree. Seems like we have slowly gathered a collection of people of all political stripes who want to be provacative and stir stuff up. The General Topics forum is intended for Subsim folks to discuss general topics, not mainly politics. And to discuss these topics as friends, not rivals.
The understanding, a gentleman's agreement, has been it is ok to discuss political issues and world events, as long as everyone shows restraint and these topics do not dominate the forum. But over the last year, we've gotten more and more away from that. The more this goes on, the closer I am to making this a non-politics forum.
