Go to RI or PotD. Don't come here.

And no I'm not tryna use some kinda reverse psychology either. I really don't want you new comers to come here but I know you guys have a rebellious nature so you'll do exactly the opposite of what I want you to do. So instead I'll say I want you to post here in hopes you'll rebel to that instead.

Good luck keeping politics out of CE with an upcoming presidential election that is already making events all the time.

...not to mention all the incoming Trump related trials.

...plus, you know, the gun issue that gets raised with every mass shooting...

...but how often do those happen?

If 261-politics existed in the 1950s, it's likely that at some point they would've modded the pro-desegregation and pro-interracial marriage posts as offensive

CE runs amok with those topics regardless of the time of decade.

Which means, per the reasons given for the 261 closure, that this board is on borrowed time.

Uh-huh
we closed all political discussion boards on GameFAQs, specifically ones that violate our terms of use by promoting abusive language.
Are you under the impression that the rest of this site, including this board, are immune to that?

Yep. We also get flooded with topics for weeks whenever a new game comes out (TotK topics have died down surprisingly fast though)

No, but those always moderated there will migrate to always be moderated where ever they migrate, then there will be new most mod intensive boards.

The real answer to making 261 less of a modsink would be to remove the ability to mod for trolling. All of politics is trolling, from trying to force a baker to make a cake for people they don't like, to Tuberville's "what you call white supremacist, I call Americans", to abortion rights vs restrictions ...and 100s of other issues.

Politics is performed as a series of trolls (verb) on both sides.

Offensiveness is another TOS concern that 261 gets too often. Something in politics is offensive somewhere in most everyone's belief system. Nobody needs politics for the stuff they agree on, politics is for that which has vehement opposition.. So, really no "offensive" moderation option either.

It's a Politics board, not a Florida classroom ...it shouldn't be easy to remove what you don't like.

I disagree. I think this place will deter lots of people who only post about politics to stop posting only about politics.
