Maybe it's time to open an un-moderated forum. This way, if someone wants to bash a political candidate, they can do it here and not the CH. Might handy with the US election coming up next week. Also, people who have a major chip on their shoulder about certain flight-sims can go there and scream their little heads off about how crappy it is, without the threat of banishment. You could even move threads in specific forums TO this new forum if things get out of hand.

Just getting tired of wading though hateful posts and useless trolls...

Yep, the first page to me is half full of useless posts. It takes you 3 pages to find the good threads \:\(

I'm done with Community Hall..I seriously won't even go there anymore. Plenty of "from the right vs. from the left" in the newspapers, radios, television...I don't need it here. I realized this today...how distracting CH is to the hobby that I love.

Somewhere....over the Rainbow
We're presently debating what to do about the Hall in our Staff and Moderator forums, campers. The Staff are split on how to handle this-like in anything else run by committee-and we're trying to figure it all out. We'd like to give the readers what y'all want without running off the non-political among us at the same time and that ain't easy. Hang in there while we come to consensus.

An intersting point is to note how many posts the more politically antagonistic put up on the actual simming boards? If they are just here to bash Kerry, Bush, foreigners of any nation or similar then they shouldn't be on this website anyway!

Steve,
By now you have seen the changes in the site regarding no more WCE.

There are other changes in the works, but none of them involve unmoderated forums. We will not have an open fire pit for people to jump into.

We are a simulation enthusiast site, that's our niche and what we will concentrate on.

Hang in there, things are going to get better.
