Welcome to the Current Events Forum! *UPDATED*

[Heather]

Hello,

On behalf of the entire staff, I would like to welcome everyone to the new Current Events forum here at Fanbolt. It's pretty much self-explanatory as to what goes into this forum (Talk of current news events).

Feel free to start any threads in here that have to do with politics, religion, or the times in which we live. Just know that Jon and I are watching. Big Brother anyone? :lol:

Seriously, though. We want everyone who comes in here to feel comfortable expressing their views, no matter what they may be. Our only requirement is that if you find yourself disagreeing with someone, you dont bash them, or attack them. This is an open forum, where all opinions are welcome and appreciated.

If you have any questions, feel free to PM the Moderators of this forum.

Thanks!

The Fanbolt Staff

Just a little side note:

Since things were getting pretty heated in certain threads, we now have threads for Conservatives, Liberals, (and thanks to Andrew) Moderates. So, any angsty post regarding another ideology should go in there, as opposed to the debate threads.

However, angsty does not mean insulting to other idealogies. Since this is an open forum, all members have access to all threads. Think about who will be reading what you post, before posting it.

P.S. What you think is funny, while cracking a joke, or making a sarcastic comment, can very well be offensive to other members on the board. So again, I stress, think about what you are saying, before you click reply.

We dont want this forum to turn into a war zone, so lets keep our posts respectful, guys. :)

Note:

Ideology threads are to discuss political issues, and beliefs. They are NOT to be used as OT threads. If you want to chat OT make a thread for it.

We now have two new mods, from the liberal side of the spectrum. So, please join me in welcoming Ashlee and Ashlyn to the staff! :)
