ChrisG 0 #1 June 6, 2002 Hey, you guys here at rec.skydiving Lite.How about a politics forum? Maybe if there was a moderated forum that will not allow personal attacks, we could get a lot of response from BOD candidates, and they could have a shot at getting their message out.What ya think?Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 4 #3 June 6, 2002 So, you're thinking USPA issues and not U.S. government issues (other than skydiving), right?When I first saw the "Politics" in the title I was thinking the other way 'round, but this makes at least a bit o' sense.quadehttp://futurecam.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisG 0 #5 June 7, 2002 I meant because of content, not numbers.And Quade- Who the hell else would I be talking about? How is that statement so hard to figure out? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 4 #6 June 7, 2002 I didn't say it was hard to figure out. You eventually did clarify your position.We -do- talk about GWB and other politicos from time to time, so when you said "politics" I would imagine that's what most people would have thought about first -- me included.quadehttp://futurecam.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sangiro 26 #7 June 7, 2002 Quote meant because of content, not numbers.Wow.... we should try harder to be like rec.skydiving so we can be "heavy".... yeah right! Seriously though, I think it's a good idea but I think there's at least a dozen forums that I'll put up before I create a politics forum. Politics is for the USPA and the likes - they are welcome to create that service for skydivers on their site - isn't that what we pay them for?Safe swoopsSangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkydiveMonkey 0 #8 June 7, 2002 There's more interesting forums to have up before politics eg. BASE, and maybe a boobie forum as well . Let's go play chicken with a planet !! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
