With this post i'd probably make a lot of friends or a lot of enemies.

I close this thread.

Why? Because it has been asked by (council) members several times.

Secondly.

I have read through the pages , and basicly it got worse and worse. Eventually i wonder what we have learned today.. We are nothing better then any board i have seen.

Its like human nature to rant about stuff, and its like human nature to call names when one does not agree. Also, its like human nature to read things you want to read them, instead of how they are 'meant' to be read.

Thirdly, we are not a board to discuss stuff like this.

Fourth, i recieved a mail to watch this thread, a moderate post. Actually a request to close the topic due personal insults. I don't think we need to explain rules over again. Although i am coming in late, i see 'warnings' are already given. So i can close it right away anyway.

Fifth. We should define 'flame' war and 'heavy discussion' before starting anything 'dangerous' like this again. But, didn't we agree NOT to discuss politics and a like at all. Only at very , uncommon, circumstances... like about the european elections... ofcourse no-one was really against the opinions on the board.

Sixth. What is with those keyboards these days? Sometimes the CAPS somehow jumps on for a few minutes... It does not impress me. It makes me skip the text as anything within CAPS longer then 2 words is not worthwile to read.

Seventh, last. I have seen a lot of mods, council members, replying, and actually getting into the discussion instead of 'staying out of it'. I don't say, never discuss when ur a moderator. But know when to discuss and know your/the limits. I have learned on Nukebox a lot. (not to be negative at all here). What i have learned the most from the internet, is that it is not as easy to get your message where and how you want it. I see several persons here reacting upon each other... and i think "what the heck"... simply because these persons already 'know' what they read, instead of actually reading the post.

There where a few good moments in the thread even. But now its way too worse. I close it. Period.

Thank you, and have a nice day.
