We've been thinking about reopening/reintroducing political forums/discussions on DefenceTalk.
I would like to get your opinion on this issue and how do you feel about being able to discuss politics as well?
Of course, this DOES NOT mean that we will allow any type of politics/political discussions in the current forums/setup that we have, not a chance. The reopening would mean that certain topics that do tend to get into politics, would be dealt with in the political forums rather than in the technical areas of the board.
A little background for those who don't know or came later...
We had to close down our political forum setup (its hidden from public/admin/mod view) back in 2005 due to large amounts of political fights, emotional pride, country bashing and mine is bigger than yours attitude. Instead, the discussions were moved HERE but with so little time on my hands, that area is not getting much attention... although plans are slowly underway to revitalize it and let the public know that it exists.
So thats that. Depending on how things go we may get full political setup or just forum or two for offtopic discussions (anything and everything appropriate goes).
Thanks for voting!
