Author Topic: How About A Special Channel for Political "Discussions"? (Read 337 times)

To spare the masses the political rants of others and keep channel one and two clear, why no designate an all-country channel for political discussions? I believe the 2-- channels can be heard by all.

So let's make channel 200 exclusively for politics. Would that work?

When it comes to politics, only one channel will do:

Hey, I live just outside Washington, DC--I know firsthand how awful our politicians are.

Politics is a game for the rich, played by the rich, for the benefit of the rich. Dunno why working stiffs get so into it's discussion to begin with.

BUT, I believe the point of Pluto’s post was…

Why do people log onto a game such as AH and then proceed to chat over the channels like they were teenage school girls on AOL.

Nothing wrong with banter between friends and a conversation here or there but to go on tirades about mindless dribble that most of us are trying to get away from by flaming a bad guy and playing the game don’t want to hear it.

Hit the roster button next time and see just how many are online and how many are babbling. Just because the 100 or so of us are quiet doesn’t mean we like seeing the 5 of you talk about nonsense.

**Note** No disrespect to any teenage school girls currently playing AH and who also have AOL accounts

that is why you should be able to highlight whoever in the roster and click on a squelch button
