Our Politics and Religion Forum here at DP

    Oh Bubba Shawn...

    Our Politics & Religion should just be removed IMO...and let me give you proper reasoning.

    Bubba Shawn, you've run such a successful webmaster forum that I don't see why you can't make an equally successful politics and religion forum, dedicated on its own domain, etc. I can't believe the popularity you got to the subforum here at DP. :p

    I would suggest that you make an entirely different forum and just take the database here from DP to make it or sell the database from politics and religion forum for some cold hard cash.

    Bubba Shawn, I'm just trying to help you out...you could really get some money, man, by doing either two of those options! :eek:

    Naw..let it stay..it's so much fun! Everyone seems to be planning to kill everyone else there..it's a fun place to read...

    Plus, I think the forum is there to keep the politics out...not to encourage it kinda thing

    I don't run a forum to make money. The Politics/Religion forum here serve an actual purpose (keeps those threads out of General Chat... then you only have to read them if you WANT).

    Shawn,

    I think it's amusing that Politics & Religion are in the same category. Realistically they should have nothing to do with each other according to the Bible.

    Regards,

    Col :)

    That's a much better point you made. I agree with the wackos out there and the biggest problem out there is religions are getting involved in politics and politicians use religion as an excuse for their political actions.

    When you say "crazy muslim wackos" I gather you mean the extremists and not mainstream muslims?

    Do not agree that the P&R forum should be removed. There are plenty of wackos there that I enjoy exposing. My life will be dull if I were not given the opportunity :D

    The reasons shawn specified are more than enough for the forum to stay.

    EGS... Stop calling him Bubba Shawn, its seriously irritating. He has a name.

    Is it irritating?, don't think so if Shawn is not the one who asks EGS to stop calling him that way.

    In fact, I believe she does it because is a sort of pet name since his name is Shawn, and Shawny may not like him that much.

    Apart of this, I don't understand how most of you find funny such Politic and Religion forum.

    I could not afford wasting my time reading whatever is fanatically discussed in there.

    After wondering why it exists, what Shawn explained us makes sense :)

    Yeah well it makes it so I don't have to read as many posts in the forum, because anything with the words "Bubba Shawn" aren't read by me, so... {shrug}

    Max Pain is right Nubba EGS

    Nubba EGS do you know that there are five oceans in this world?

    Nubba EGS do you know that Dogs can actually run?

    Nubba EGS do you know that your Bubba idea wasn't appreciated by anyone and not even shawn?

    Nubba EGS do you know that Shawn doesn't appreciate you calling him what you call him by all the time?

    Nubba EGS do you know that there is a big difference in actually being funny and trying to be funny?

    Nubba EGS do you think the DP forums are overall imperfect that you keep suggesting something to everything that is not even... appropiate at times?

    Nubba EGS do you know that having a Display picture with a cartoon having a crown on its head doesn't necessarily make you royal?

    Nubba EGS do you know that you should behave responsibly now that you have 2.5k posts and some good rep?

    Nubba EGS do you know that asking for rep is never appreciated?

    Nubba EGS did you like reading my post?

    Nubba EGS, I have nothing against you personally, its just that I am annoyed by your Bubba comments everytime... like Oh Bubba Shawn...
