Question for Gary & the Yahoo Users...

Off Topic Anything not relating to politics. A good place to cool off from all the debating.

2) I refuse to post on that particular board or Yahoo ever again.

The majority of the Yahoo posters that came here have been civil (IMO), but then a couple have come to DTT that are very antagonistic. I applaud this site for moderating its users and taking appropriate measures to ensure civil debate.
Good post, Akuma. I agree with you on this one.

The St. Lucia board is a dump now, at the very least without seagulls flying over it.

OK, my response to Tadpole:

Overall, a moderated board is probably better than a non-moderated one. However, on a board like St Lucia, some of the posts can be rather funny. Many of these funny posts would get someone banned immediately if posted here. I was never a big fan of political correctness.

I like the BC board because the Brits don't seem to care about political correctness as much there. You should read some of the searing posts over there and nobody seems to get infracted.

All that being said, I still think this is a pretty good board.

And, everybody remember that this is just my opinion, so don't crucify me for thinking pineapple and sterling are funny at times.

Ah yes... Gracie... the Educator of Boy Scouts.... I'm sure she's remembered fondly by ol' Troop 318... either that, or they awake in a sweat, screaming in terror.... ;o)

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.
