Been watching this thread from the beginning. Obviously, you folks are aware of the guidelines because you're discussing them.
Changing the guidelines is simply not open for discussion. That decision was reached by the owner after watching Ron and I trying to herd cats in here...for years. We were spending the vast majority of our moderating time dealing with political threads. Not fair to us, certainly, but also not fair to the majority of members who simply could not get our assistence in posting pics, editing threads on other discussions and the like.
I love politics...I usually found myself embroiled in the same discussions/arguments as many of you. I have found more than enough other outlets for such discussions. Some of us even have another site where we spend hour after hour hating each other about politics, simply because we don't like us either.
Thanks for keeping the discussion a discussion.
