I’d vote to eliminate the political forum completely, why even keep it as it seems to only have a negative impact on this site.

The problem with that is, without it, politics will spill out over the whole sire, especially the Main Forum. It's inevitable. It's why a separate forum was needed to begin with. Even so, some of it still sneaks out. Sometimes the best thing to do is ignore it, unless it ignites a brawl.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

Hey, I like Gjetost, and thanks to Thor Bjørklund we can cut thin slices.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Leipäjuusto? That's actually more like a dessert, that you eat with a spoon with coffee. And then there's mämmi.

Yeah, it’s better kept compartmentalized. Keeps things
more polite on the main forum.
