New DIS Board policy in effect

[drakethib]

That's too bad. I very rarely participated, but sometimes those threads could really be pretty interesting....in a good way, not when they broke out into wars. It's a shame people can't debate civilly.

I agree.

I enjoyed reading some as well but I do understand the reasoning. People have gotten pretty bent on this board.

While I realize this has very little impact on the particular forum, we have been asked to post something letting everyone know that there is a new policy in effect for every area of the DIS Boards.

Discussions of politics and religion are no longer allowed anywhere on the DIS.

This does not mean that you can not ask for prayers or pixie dust, It doesnt mean that you can not wish someone Merry Christmas.

It means that political and religious discussion / debates are not allowed.

If anyone is interested the new policy is located here:

As I said earlier...this has VERY little bearing on this forum, but we were asked to let everyone know.

Debates on cake versus pie versus brownies are fine BTW.

Hmm.

So Kevin, if John had posted 316 times, and I say "Wow John, 316 post !"

Is that wrong?

Ok, weak attempt at a joke.

I laughed so hard I spit my soda out on my keyboard. How do you clean a keyboard?

It's a pain in the butt. I used to clean them but then I discovered the $11 keyboard at Wal-mart. Now I just go buy a new one! I know, not very green of me. . .but i do freecycle the old one and give it to someone who has more patience than I urrently possess.

I have matured.

I am going to leave this alone.

No, you haven't, and no you didn't.

That's why I love you. Score one for Mr. Innuendo. I think you are now one ahead of Copier Repairman.

Okay everyone - can't we all agree that DESSERT in any form is utterly fabulous? Now all I want to do is eat!

I say the new policy is a good one. Do we need more contention in the world? Do we need more opportunities to give or take offense? Too often a real, respectful debate can get ugly. And if there's one thing I don't need it's more ugly.

Oh. I guess I won't post my photo on here then.
