News and Current Affairs topics

A reminder that the News and Current Affairs section was closed for a reason and this section is not a place for it to be started up again. This was said a few months ago but the section has started becoming the same place again, these topics will be removed. 

We have a no tolerance policy on this because of the problems those topics cause including: 

• Arguments becoming out of hand and people resulting to insults.
  
• Threat of legal action because of the nature of some of the discussions.
  
• The arguments tend to be of a more personal and deep level than sports and so people care more deeply and are thus more passionate and this usually ends up getting out of hand. 
  

Thanks for reminding us Mate...   

One is ever so baffled by the fact that another moderator actively took part in discussions that he were meant to be stopping!

What folly.

Give Duty the moderation job...

He's 19 now.....

And he has passed 12,000 posts, whilst only being banned four (or is it five?) times along the way!

If it's five than I'm jealous someone has been kicked off more than me !!

Then again If Crimey moderates it.......You won't be ahead of me for long !!
