P&R needs to be shut down!

The DP P&R needs shutting-Unfortunately things get heated very quickly and as a former offender it is very easy to be rude to other members who dont share the same opinions as one.
Things will never be cool-As a conservative i could never agree with a Liberal or vice versa.
Time for Shut Down.

I think this happens everywhere. P & R is never an easy thing to 'deal' with, and many of us tend to take things personally.

However i believe it still has a place here..and we shouldn't take those heated discussions personally as well.

 

P&R has always been a hot topic in DP..

If you can handle harsh comments, enter it or just stay far from it. I don't think it can be closed down so easily.
Politics is always a hot thing!

 

Just don't go there, problem solved.

 

If you can handle the heat stay away from the fire...

 

not a bad idea
but things there have gone WAY too far,antisemitic rep and comments,anti-American and Israeli feeling.
Ive been a victim of the majority of above.

 

People are simply sharing their views. Sure I don't agree with all of them, but it's a good read sometimes. If we close it down, people will just post it in General Chat..

 

Report the posts that are over the top! Recently, the admin of DP made an important anouncement about the PR area of Digital Point...

 

Unfortunately Politics has no place in a webmaster discussion forum.

 

Actually thats a great idea...

...I bet you were one of those kids that kept drinking milk even though it gave you the shits every single f'kin time

 

Then get rid of general chat, entertainment, and get rid of the suggestions and feedback section too...

 

But it drives traffic, increases page views, which in turn drives alexa rank......and that all equals = $$$

The P & R will never be shut........too much traffic

Happy Holidays

 

I think the initial idea was to keep political/religious rant out of General Chat. Unfortunately P&R often degenerates to a mud slinging match, quite vitriolic at times. Mary's advice of avoiding that place is sound.

 

oh i dont agree,i think that is a great section to share opinions and ideas

 

I like the section as well, Sure, Not everything in there is what I agree with , But there are some great links to REAL world stories in some of those threads....

 

hmm i agree with other that you should go there, i dont think i have ever made a post in p&r, i dont think i have even looked in that section...ever

 

Besides do we all not need someplace to go and rant about these types of things? Also it DOES keep it out of general chat and if you do not like it stay out like Mary said.

No point in shutting it down and have people rant in general chat or some place else and screw everything up.

Greetings to you All

 

Yup it's that simple. I can't say I have ever set foot in there.

I guess some people just like train wrecks though
