No!

NO

The No's have it by a nose.

We are considering a (Current Events Forum)
Which would encourage discussion of various "current interest" topics.

With proper Moderation it could touch on relevant current political issues without being nasty or negative.

What Say You?

I say yes but tbh I don’t think the content will differ from what it would be if you called it a political forum. Moderation is key if you want to keep it from becoming a shit show but what should be moderated is name calling and abuse and not opinions no matter how nutty they might be.

Same thing with a different name. Still no.

BTW - it was overwhelmingly no. No noses were in view.

Sorry but nearly everything in your country seems to be viewed through the lens of politics. I think most current event topics would become red vs blue, it's Trump's fault/it's Biden's fault within very few posts.

Look at things in the news like Russia vs Ukraine, Trade with China, Storms, heat waves or electric cars (climate change), Any sort of crime or mass shooting becomes either a gun control or immigration debate (Red vs Blue again)

You get the idea. They used to say "politics is the art of compromise". These days in the US it seems to be a contest to totally destroy the other guy.

4 Yes and 18 No votes. That's a significant "nose".

Perhaps posting links here to political forums on Reddit and similar platforms will meet the needs of those seeking that type of dialogue.

Please leave politics out of discussing the Politics Current Events forum. LOL

Since you have used the term "your country" now a few times, may I ask what nation you live in?

Happy Saturday.

I don't care one way or another. "No's by a nose" is obviously a joke-Play on Words!

I appreciate the work that DominaAdmin is doing to make this board a success. It seems like some members don't!

This board exists as a service to the community. We the members need to post more and complain less!

I'm going to suggest that DominaAdmin start a new Forum called; "I'm a passive-aggressive ass wipe who hates myself & everyone Elese."

A Current Events forum would be the same thing as a Politics forum.

All of the same problems.

18 people voted "No" on and only 4 people voted "Yes".

You created a winner with the Dommes Only forum. That will give more prodommes a reason to come here. You've got a winner. Just give it time to work.

My vote for a Current Events forum is No.

Thanks for trying to improve this place.
