Default Political Forum?

Um, if you are going to make this thing visable to everyone, can you at least make it readable? It's kinda annoying to see this forum appear now (which I noticed a couple weeks ago, if that) but can't actually read it.

It's like the drool thread. If you want access, you need to request to be added.

You are making my OCD twitch. It's like... I can't keep my threads read with this one orange glowy forum that I... just... can't... read... *twitch*

Fine fine, can you give me access so I can mark it read?

I know some OCD is really severe and really damaging. Mine is pretty comical really... it's patterns. Things must be... lined up. Neat. You should see my desk. The girl who worked here before was a complete slob, and I took two whole days to clean when she left. They think I'm funny like that. They have no idea. Big... glowy orange thing... in my screen... must... FIX!

Um, honey works better than vinegar. so if you'd like to see something changed, ask nicely.

cuz the "this is annoying" thing is kind of annoying.

furthermore, it was left as viewable instead of hidden, so that people know it exists, and can request access if they desire.
(and you now have access. enjoy)

You know those dumb illusion bowls they sell at places like Spenser's, where it looks like there's a quarter at the bottom, and if you reach in, there's nothing there? Yeah. It was that kinda thing. Which, for someone like me (who's a little off) is really unnerving. Heh. Yeah... so wasn't really a judgement on anything besides my own inability to not be fixated on the quarter that wasn't there I suspect my choice of the word annoying has more to do with my lack of caffiene and the day I've had at work thus far. Anyone want to help me launch a laptop out a 7th floor window?

No offense Meathead... but, I'm honestly not sure I want to go that route.

I mean, a Buffalo fan who's only posted a couple of times, we have no idea what kind of person you are, and what you may be looking to stir up.
The political forum can be a highly charged atmostphere, and I'm not sure trying out an opposing fan who we have no idea about in there is the best idea.

Of course, if the owner (Caniac) or one of the other admins disagree with me, they may add you. I'm just one opinion.

hmm well i suppose i can understand that but given that you can easily ban or restrict someone who 'stirs up trouble' i guess i dont see why one has to request access in the first place. but thats your call

for what its worth i have been one of the most active and extremely respected (even though often disagreed with) members on several bills boards that have had intense political discussions over the past five years. id post the links for you to go look yourself but some boards are amazingly sensitive (ie. childish imo) about posting other fan sites so i will refrain for the time being
