Did we just lose Friendly Politics?

[newbury]

I come here to talk tractors and rural living. When I was a kid, I was taught not to talk politics or religion with company and when I grew up, I learned why. And that was in the good old days when people were more restrained.

I thought the rule was never discuss religion, politics or sex.

I never discuss religion or politics. Firstly, they are not subjects that I am very well versed in and second I am not overly interested in either one.

Well out of the 3 things I mentioned I'm moderately well versed and interested in two.

I saw an advantage in the Friendly Politics forum as a place to not only learn of other views but also to find facts and links I would not normally see in my daily readings. It was refreshing to read other viewpoints until they started descending into vulgar personal attacks, often by a limited group of people. And frequently the threads, although started in ernest, would slant around to president bashing.

I came here to get knowledge and advice on equipment to manage my woodlots. I hit a lot of forums at the time but I would have to blame Eddie Walker's advice for addicting me to TBN.

Hopefully Muhammad will continue Friendly Politics.

I can't see it on the iPad. I haven't been on computer though. HS

HS;

That may be my issue as I view TBN on my iPad 95% of the time.

Don't see anything on my profile settings about those forums. Will have to check this on my laptop.

No, I see it on my iPad as well as on my laptop so pm Muhammad, the owner and ask to be given access.

It appears that possibly the worst of the worst, and you all know who I am referring to may be totally gone. And if so, good riddance.

Oh no! Not Eggplant! He was so young. We hardly knew him.

I had gotten bored with the same old stuff over and over. I was down to visiting every couple of days and was on briefly on 1-2 threads last night. No great loss to me. I didn't even look at it for 2-3 days. Some of my friends in agreement, I hope to see you other places, and some of my opposing viewed friends, I hope to see you as well. Island Tractor, I enjoyed dealing with you, some of your cohorts, not as much.

You must have spent a lot of time in the principal's office as a young man.

But they didn't want to be here anyways.

Glad you survived, glad IT made it too. HS
