Sorry but I contributed to that forum before becoming disillusioned with it's self-egostroking rhetoric threads. I thought perhaps some fluke of reality would allow politics to be debated on the internet without degenerating into a slanging match. I was of course, wrong. I stopped posting and made my views on the forum as a whole and your moderation clear to the appropriate parties, including yourself.
And again.. we have the flip-side of the coin. Perhaps Pol-Deb was detracting from PSU. I personally found the overbearing pseudo-intellectual hostility in that place very reminiscent of the Official Forums (to those who haven't cottoned on yet.. that's not a compliment). It was in my view not in keeping with the rest of the general community spirit. Gangs of e-thugs, prejudice, discrimination, polarized extremist views and overall a general air of bastard-dom, is not really what PSU is about. Pol Deb could be considered a black mark on the PSU canvas.
As a final note.. as far as I'm concerned, views like 'We should nuke Mecca to stop the terrorists' belong in lunatic asylums, not PSU.
TB.

I just got too god damn frustrated with the seemingly endless pile of ignorance and childish mudslinging that I noticed in there. Meh, 'tis in the past.
