If it keeps the site out of NSR then Im in favour of it. Its pointless though because I havent seen anyone involved in a 'political' discussion thread who I think would consider the facts and consider changing their position. It would be little more than a political fight club...

Great idea - anything to get politics out of NSR. Perhaps it could include threads on Charles and C, Michael Jackson and "my girlfriend is leaving me 'cos she saw me screwing the gerbil - is she being unreasonable?" type threads.... DL

I voted no - because NSR is what it is Non Scooby Related - I prob would never venture into a politics only forum, but enjoy the politics threads in NSR as they often start off as general posts then decend into political mudslinging

No. It would just become a troll fest like the CWE forum did.

Ask me if I'd want a PSLewis forum where only he could post & it'd be a resounding yes.

Politics forum will end up like Current World Evenets forum, really lowers the tone of scoobynet, and simply descends into slanging matches....

Exactly what Dr Hu says... NSR encompasses a variety of topics; that's what makes it interesting.
