No one posts there anymore because it became the Religion forum. And unless you want to waste your time debating creationists, there really is no purpose in entering that forum anymore.

I'm glad that it's a seperate forum. I'd hate for the GD to get bogged down with all that religious stuff.

Actually,it's the political threads that are a waste of time.If you are NOT a Bush bashing liberal democrat,then you will be shouted at and likely have your post deleted.

actually, our political threads havent really been an issue of late. one thing ive noticed though is a real diverse pool of threads.....its been interesting to learn about so many new beliefs and ideals....

to keep the nuts and assholes that think a Prince site is the A-#1 destination for political and religious talk. without it, they'd be roaming around the other forums freely going on and on and on, making us roll our eyes at their crack-pottery.

The smart people need a place to hang out. The others are just jealous. The smart people deserve protection from the dumb people's jealousy.

Does that answer your question?

i totally agree. keep the dumb people caged up in the P&R forum instead of letting them roam free.

Gotta have somewhere where serious stuff is discussed.
The GD forum is for play play play.
So...how's everybody doing? smile

I don't know if U were here when it was altogether...but any time something serious was introduced, the GD-ers turned it into sattire.
That was fun sometimes, but sometimes it was quite offensive.
So many complaints that a pole was taken, if I reacall..and the P&R forum was created.
So...how's everybody doing? smile

no, i've just always been alternately amused, baffled and befuddled that there are people who come to this site only to talk about politics. there are some people, when you look at their profiles, that don't post in any other forum. myself, i don't post in the Prince forum much, sticking mainly to the Music: Non-Prince forum. which some might find strange. however, as this is a musician-dedicated site, and just about every single thing that ever can be said about Prince HAS been said on it about 500 times in the last 9 years, it seems a more natural fit. but to come to this site to discuss politics and religion? surely there are better places on the internet to do that. but perhaps that's the problem: these people would be eaten alive on a site that was dedicated to those subjects, so they stay here where they can appear to be thoughtful, expert talking heads fighting for this cause or that, or blowing off steam over the outrage of the week without getting their asses handed to them by people who actually know what they're talking about on a site dedicated to politics and religion.

Wow, you sure do take this all seriously. lol

It's just a site for Prince fans to speak to each other about a lot of different topics.

And some of us DO discuss these things in real life, and in other contexts. Very presumptuous, you are.
