#1

Can we please remove the 'thread approval' mechanism in the politics forum? Is it really that chaotic that you have to evaluate each thread before it can be posted?

#2

Can I get someone to explain why unemployment benefits for the long term unemployed is necessary? I get in the short term, like 3-6 months maximum, but long term unemployment benefits make no sense.

That is all.

On November 9th I created a new topic thread in the politics forum which has not yet been approved. It has also not be explained why it may have been declined, although I think I know why.

I don't go to that forum, btw. All complaints need to be directed to LJ.

We post a link to the thread on day 1 where he said he wanted the forum and would moderate it, and tell him that no one gives a shit.

But seriously, it has yet to happen.

NBecause you posted a thread about it AND posted it in the Bin Laden thread, which is where it belonged in the first place.


I'm slow on approving topics. I am usually on my phone and will approve them every 3 days or so (unless I catch it on tapatalk, which is horribly annoying to do)

What's the point of needed to approve topics? Even if you get dumb topics, the free market will let them sink to the bottom. If they are really inappropriate, you have moderator powers to remove them.

There can't be that many stupid threads(stupid is subjective anyway) that would clog the forum.

You don't have the intelligence to understand anything in there anyway.

You have no idea. It also highly cuts down on troll topics, which highly cuts down on extreme arguments.
