I've thought that the conversations along somewhat controversial subjects- as long as they have kept to opinion and instruction have been lively and fun. That IS until they wander off into the opinions of others that may have been found on TV or other sources.

After those threads have been locked, all we're left with is conversations about TIMESHARES! Boooooring. Time to go work in the yard or play solitaire.

I agree with Passepartout. I was really enjoying the give and take about the release of Sgt. Bergdahl until it was closed down.

I suspect your total post volume is down. I know total post volume may be skewed by a few very active threads, e.g. one in the Canadian forum that I'm aware of. If you toss out a handful of high-volume outliers, usually involving a single resort issue, I bet your volume is down.

well yes, having less threads does indicate having less posts as well =)

Its certainly quite a heated topic...but sadly as with so many other conversations like that...turned down the road of political bashing etc.

I do like when a moderator deletes offending posts and provides warnings for inappropriate behavior. I like that extra latitude to allow for these types of debates to continue a bit longer. The Sandusky one a couple years ago was epic.

We deleted several posts, and posted warnings, but it did not deter the people who were bound and determined to grind their political axe.

TUGBrian · Jun 4, 2014

yes, moderators do their very best to prune a topic to keep it alive...however as Denise said...some folks are just determined to pee in the pool just one time too many.

Passepartout · Jun 4, 2014

I think that posts about peeing in pools should be deleted, and the poster severely chastised on grounds of giving poor guidance to the youth, who could see such comments as approval of that behavior.

Posters who are 'pissed off' should get the same treatment too. :hysterical:
