If I had a dollar for all the posts that don't make the "friendly" cut, I'd be driving an R8 TDI....

Either way, Its up to Dpham to make judgement on what he and the other moderators think is acceptable. There is a reason he and others are moderators. They run the site and what they say goes, If you dont like the way it is run then join the Vortex "08 Election" thread and go bananas there. Remember, this is a public forum that is run privately at their own discretion. Im neutral on the subject of discussing it on a car forum but there is a reason why he is doing it, just respect it.
aka fall in line with the rest of the sheep?
There is nothing wrong with expressing a differing opinion from those in charge, or questioning why a decision was made.
Furthermore, the objective of any forum is to maintain or increase membership. If members are told to "go to forum X" if you want to have a real discussion, then guess what? golfmkv.com loses valuable members. Less members = less sposnorship and ad money.

What's amazing is that I left my previous car forum solely because of all of the political garbage that consumed the site. I am quite happy with the way this forum is run. There are many things that were not allowed by my previous forum that are allowed here. Most of us are adults here so what's wrong with swearing and titties? Nothing... but both were banned on my previously frequented forum.
If you don't like the music, change the dial.
Can we add religion to that as well? I'm sick of hearing that debate thrown in at any opportunity someone has. You know who I pray to? Joe Pesci.
Why can't the mods just do their jobs and ban people who get out of line? I still don't see why we can't discuss politics. If someone causes a ruckus and can't remain civilized, just ban them. They're likely to be the same idiots who ruin the other forums too.

God forbid people have an argument over something that actually matters. The whole idea of having a ban, on any type of discussion that is not violating some sort of law, isn't very American.
You guys seem to have no problem keeping an extremely long leash on the versus forum, one that is dedicated to confessions of illegal activity, yet we can't talk about politics.....wtf is the world coming to.
