I was thinking the other day...should this web site be focused on Defending the Truth of only Politics?? What if we shift out of a purely political atmosphere and cover all types of topics to defend? I don't know if this is something that would be of interest to you all, but I think it might ease the tension that a political discussion typically endures. Granted, politics will not be removed from the forums, but it will not have dominance.
Let me know what you think.
If you really want to help out, maybe we can all agree upon parent forums and categories (all the forums listed currently::gay marriage, abortion, etc..)
I'm hoping to shoot for topics that would be of great interest to everyone, and would likely be active with daily postings..As you can see, some forums on this site now are completely dead (example::Executive Branch)
Anyways, your 2 cents is greatly appreciated  |

Like whether the last couple of seconds of Thursday's Grey's Anatomy sucked balls for being sooo friggin suspenseful. And they put the cry part in the middle. Asses. Then we gotta wait 2 friggin weeks for the next show. Jerks.

All the "lets talk about something else" is bullshit. No one honestly wants to talk about anything else. Except how stupid "religion" is. Parumph.

Points: 35,177, Level: 100 | Level up: 2%, 0 Points needed | | I'm going to expand on this topic further.. It seems that although politics is a great topic, we would likely improve our community if we did not have a 100% focus on politics. We could instead focus on Defending any type or kind of truth.
Now the only challenge...choosing the right topics/cetegories. | |

We are implementing social-networking features, giving you your own friends list, album, customized profile (colors, etc.), and further enhancements to the DtT groups.
I will not go live with these features until fully tested...I'll keep you all posted | |
