August1991 Posted November 13, 2004 Report Share Posted November 13, 2004 If you want to discuss computers and other off-topic things, please do it elsewhere. This forum is for discussing politics only.Greg Admin Greg, the topic is obviously popular to MapleLeaf posters. Why close it? For heaven's sakes, look at who posted on the thread discussing computers. After all, other Canadian political fora have such helpful computer threads. Greg, if you don't realize this, and prefer to close the topic, I'm sure your patrons will understand the concept and be willing to discuss it.

Forum Admin Greg Posted November 13, 2004 Forum Admin Report Share Posted November 13, 2004 Greg, the topic is obviously popular to MapleLeaf posters. Why close it?

Greg, if you don't realize this, and prefer to close the topic, I'm sure your patrons will understand the concept and be willing to discuss it. If I allow this off-topic thread, then where do I draw the line in the future? What if someone wants to discuss the digestive habits of their cat? Would that be acceptable? No it wouldn't be acceptable and that is why we have the firm rule that only political topics will be discussed in this forum. These forums don't operate (and are not considered successful) based on the amount of people who use them. The success of these forums is measured by the quality of the discussions. If at any point these discussions cease to be intelligent, thoughtful and respectful, I will shut the forum down. If you want to discuss issues related to Microsoft, cats, etc, there are plenty of other forums available on the internet. If however, you want to discuss politics in a highly focused and accessible forum then you've come to the right place. Greg Admin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
