    I think it was 2002-3. I want to be clear: What I'm referring is simply someone having "Yes We Can" or "McCain 08" in a sig or avatar. People were warned in the past for having sigs like "I hate Dems" or "9/11 is Bush's fault" but thats more because people could find those offensive than being political in nature.

    Its the same line mods and staff draw with trolling or offensive language where it depends on the actual statement. Maybe OS is taking a broader approach with applying this rule but I was just wondering why.

      Looks like we need to bring in the OS Supreme Court to interpret the rule about political discussion and decide exactly what the rule means.

            I was thinking the same thing, just segregate it from all the other threads.

                    Re: Political Stuff

                    I've seen the Avy's and never had a problem with them...whether or not they were supporting my candidate.

                    I dont think I've ever seen anyone called out on it or an argument arise from them...oh well se la vie

                      more like c'est la vie

                      also I hadnt noticed any political stuff, but whatever. Not sure what harm a picture of a candidate would cause but I guess thats the direction this board has been taking.
