New Rule: No Negative Political Avatars or Signatures

Not sure what you mean? Care to elaborate?

well, as much as i'm against censorship such, i hated the political sigs i saw here when i first came. i mean seriously, barack hussein obama; the most popular candidate in the middle east? wtf? are you retarded?

i wish people would have some fucking taste, especially since we are a global internet community here. some people want to ruin everyone's fun

and honestly... it seemed like a choice few of the people on this forum followed obama around all day waiting for him to do something muslimy... get a fucking life people. let's go back to talking about flying gogoplatas

No, actually I don't. Notice I don't bring it up.

What I meant Clint is the recent freakout of Wadokai started over a political avatar, but it seems there is a rash of threads like that that don't have anything to do with politics. I saw something very similar at another forum I belonged. The "feedback" subforum was a constant battleground. I don't know if it is inevitable when a forum grows to this point, or if it is the rep system making everyone nuts, or if it is how staff is handling it. I don't envy you the hassle. Frankly, I'm sorry I posted any comment at all. I don't care to create any more drama. Feel free to delete my posts if you think it may get people started.

Well... like someone else mentioned, This isnt my forums and I dont make the rules, so I can choose to obey them or leave, simple as that. And honestly my sig doesnt mean that much to me, so I think I'll stick with mmanews.
