This would all be a lot more efficient if I invited and approved of all members before they enter the forum, and approved of all OP's before publishing. :smirk:

I just want to notify you all before I go through with this. So, the following people are banned. Er, well, it'll just be easier if I tell you who is not banned. Please see the following list of those who will not be banned at 00:01 GMT Nov 23 2009:

So you can post your usual nonsense ideas and then claim that nobody can debate them.

Sounds like something you would try.

This feels like the time I voted for a Govt candidate and regretted it when he wen ahead to try and enforce his totalitarian ideology. :obama:

I found myself thinking, perhaps it was better to vote for the religious war veteran after all!?

*sigh

Well, for me the rational thing is to abstain for political involvement altogether.

I mean since the system is corrupt from top down.

Sounds like a very rational idea. Any 'vote' is just endorsing the current system, so I agree on that level. But sometimes I have voted on who I think would be least likely to trample over too many of my rights.

Nowadays there is no lesser of two evils so to vote is pretty much pointless.

Since it's America I expect half of you to ignore the thread. Additionally I expect nearly everyone to bitch, gossip or hold ill opinions about the moderators and site managers. I also expect you to say you want freedom from any (moderator) rule, yet require more and more mods and then to turn around and blame everything on them.
