To be honest, I think if this section was to come back it should be a "post and view at your own risk", meaning no moderation team. If users are getting offended, then they can simply leave the topic, it isn't that hard.

EDIT: Spelling error ;)

Please add.

Eu corro fujo desta sombra / Em sonhos vejo este passado
E na parede do meu quarto / Ainda está o seu retrato
Eu quero ver pra não lembrar / Pensei até em me mudar / Lugar qualquer que não exista / O pensamento em você

All of the people who posted in this idea have agreed that they should be brought back...I hope they're back soon  :redface:

No, majority of our players are 18 or below... Consequently, they are incapable of discussing politics.

I think it's obvious why discussing politics & religion should be forbidden.

Why does being under 18 instantly mean one is not capable of discussing politics?

I think he means mental age.

Honest thought? When the P&R section existed, there was way less trouble around. Nowadays the subject(s) and disputes spread all over the forum instead of to remain in one damn section. Feel what I mean ?

Referring to Mario's contribution saying that Sub-18s would be incapable of discussing politics ; Bull-freakin'-shit. You underestimate the youth just because the majority acts as if they were hyperactive degenerated losers (yes, I am ashamed for the majority of my generation. That does not mean that there aren't any nice ethnic groups) or contribute things that don't make sense. Yet there are people that are worth listening to.

True, but increase of disputes is not related to P&R section.

We just need more forum mods.

Bull-freakin'-shit.
To be honest, I don't think you're capable of discussing this idea, too.

You underestimate the youth just because the majority acts as if they were hyperactive degenerated losers (yes, I am ashamed for the majority of my generation. That does not mean that there aren't any nice ethnic groups) or contribute things that don't make sense.
And that behaviour is the reason we don't need P&R.

Yet there are people that are worth listening to.
These people are few of those who don't act like retards. However, the majority will just derail topics and post complete shit, as always.

I agree with Mario.

  In my opinion the board did not contribute anything positive to our community at all. If anything, it only separated the members and caused forum rulebreaks (intentional or not).
 
  This is Argonath, a world of its own. Want politics? Want religion? Argonath politics and religion only thanks. Real world problems have no place here in Argonath or any GTA game unless they are taken, then recreated in a funny & positive way - such is the GTA way.

JC ; You should of obvserved that the rate of rulebreakers has increased rather than decreased ever since the section is down.
And your last part, especially "a funny and positive way" is wrong. A few scenarios, such as plane-2-tower cannot be recreated in a humorous way, as well as any streak of assassinations and AFAIK these are real world problems too. So the only way is to talk about them in the proper section and NOT to set them in motion in the game. These would just lead to punishment as they do nowadays.

Mario, am I right with the thought that you just talk descending to us just because you are about a century older than us? Behaviours such as your prejudicing merely are the roots of provocation that make everything escalate and lead to worse crosstalks. And oh yes, I am indeed capable of discussing this idea, if you would show a little more esteem and respect towards people that are different from you and have a different point of view.

There's a difference between having different opinions and posting absurd shit that filled P&R. :rules:

Basically, Politics and Religion section was full of shit. And that was just the relevant stuff. This forum is not an appropriate place for it.

As much as I'd love to see it back, it won't happen. We may all say that we'll keep strictly to the rules, but we all know that practically every single topic turned into arguments that most of the time got personal - although I still feel if you can't take someones opinion, regardless of whether or not they hit you with it hard, then you shouldn't even be on the board. But people kick up shitstorms, and this is why we can't have nice things.
