Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Should we make tomorrow a politics free day on Accyweb?
Lets have a vote on it and if yes wins I will delete any political posts made on Thursday 28th April 2010.

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Sounds like a vote winner to me :D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Well it has to be democratic :rolleyes::D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Fed up of hearing about whom. is better than who, they are all the same. Say one thing and do another.

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

There'll be more votes on this than the whole election :p lol

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

You might upset our new independent member, tomorrow could be the day he comes on & makes his first intelligible political statement, only to have you delete it.

:)

:theband::theband::theband: whoopee

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Looks like tomorrow could be a fun day :D



I wonder if I can remove No votes from a poll, I best go and read the forum instructions :D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

As the poll does not close till 2 days later I can't see the point in voting.:confused::confused:

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

I would like the ban to be more than one day,
.....maybe from now until after the election

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Hard luck, its my game and I am making up the rules :p

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

That's because it did not like it when I set it to 0.
Don't worry I can always do a yes vote for you :rolleyes:

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Yes, what a good idea.

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

i voted no, after all, why?:confused:if a certain thread bores/annoys me, i dont bother wi it, then thats just common sense, way beyond the remit of some.:D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

What happens if it's a hung decision? :D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

I will do what all good Politicians do, cheat :rolleyes::D:D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

I voted No. I think its getting really interesting now the election is getting closer,people dont have to participate if they dont want too.

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Neil has the casting vote:rolleyes::D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Just a small wonder I haven't watched a news program since Brown went to the Palace and dissolved parliament, I know walk round with a smile on my face all day:D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Thats only cos i nicked yer mirrors.:D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Some amusing incidents do happen though. GB certanly enhanced his standing today - he got to meet a real person and then proceeded to call her a bigot - is that what he thinks of all of us that disagree with some of his actions?

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Probably, if you're a bigot.
:)

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

i dont do politics ... its against my religon ...:D:D:D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Will Neil tell us how many he had to delete I wonder? Who will be the first to try their luck at keeping a politics rant in?

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Well, if you're going to do it, at least get the date right! :rolleyes:

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Less - you ever been to Pakistan, India orTurkey? Seen what they are trying to escape from?
English tends to be the second language for them, so they try to get to England - the same applies to all the other nationalities - Perhaps the BBC World Service should be closed down - teach them Russian or Chinese instead.

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Tell you what, these immigrants get everywhere. There's one of 'em just stopped me from going up the pub! Where will it all end? :eek:

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

lmao at the irony on having a vote to ban polotics :D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Voted no.. merely because you cannot do it. This is a site based on free speech 24/7, and to decide on a whim to delete posts on certain subjects for a day is megalomania.

Eew let's see now, I will raise a poll not to talk about football on Saturday !
That'll go down well. :rolleyes:

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Exactly what i thought a poll not to talk about football to see how that went down.

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

i would vote againt that also, there is a differance though as no doubt neil will say, there is a dedicated section fer it on here, but aint one fer politics, so that pathetic reason dont stand up.:D i would agree with kate if she spoke english Meglomania, lol

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

i know what it means, was considering the dummies on here.:D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Yes i had some one phoned me but when i was after thease folk there was not intressed

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

With all due respect (don't want to upset a moderator) instead of spending time deleting posts why don't you use the time to fix glitchs in the system ....the first could be the "View First Unread" glitch which most times takes me to the last post in a thread requiring a scroll back (on occasion the previous or second page back) to find the last post I recognize .
Thx.

and yes I do know the difference between 'last page ' and 'View First Unread' buttons

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

You would make a good politician Neil getting things wrong like the rest:D
Thursday 28th 2010 :eek::D its Thursday 29th today:tongueout
so cant vote on this lies sorry

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

After not being on AW for a few days, due to being a bit rough, I'm glad this was the first threead that came up.

I'd have been spitting feathers, if I'd have wrote a whole load of political posts, only to have them deleted because it was no 'politics day', even though the date was wrong.

I voted no.

If there's something I want to say, I want to be able to say it.

Those who aren't interested don't need to read it.

Just avoid it.

Simple.

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

I'm going back to bed, until free to speak my mind again.

:D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Its so easy to wind you lot up :tongueout

The vote appears to be a no so jaysay will have something to do all day after all :rolleyes::D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

I'm not having that. You've always come across as a shy retiring sort of bloke on here.:D:rolleyes:

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

So this poll was rigged
...thats not a novelty is it
...Florida comes to mind

Who wins is already decided
Whichever party is declared winner, there is one large collection of losers - us

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Disagree, the only losers are those who were dumb enough to take things serious.:D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

I bet that went right over the heads of a lot of members on here Wyn, but not mine:D:mosher:

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

Glad you brought that up SJ I was going to ask if it was just my PC that had this glitch but obviously not, when I press last unread post it goes to the last post, come on Neil sort it:p

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

I'm wasted on here, mate. ;)

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

I know, I know, Wyn, ever thought of taking up politics:rolleyes:;)

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

errr...hang on a minute, is my microphone switched off? ;)

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

I think it would be good if we were able to specify what new posts we saw when we hit ther "new posts" button.

SO that I.E. not being an AS supporter - I did not have to see any posts in the AS forum kind of thing. And then for political posts to be in a forum for it so we could turn that off & not need to see it. :D

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

To get round that just click general chat, q&A etc at side then bypasses stanley posts or for me i click stanley section bypasses all poliical bull rubbish:D :p

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

I can do that but then I have to do that on all forums rather than use the new posts butto.
Some websites I have used in the past enabled you to specify forums that did not appear in your search, I think Burnleyweb once did that.

Getting back on thread, so is this no pollyticks day planned for july 17th? (should be far enough away from all the crap going on now :D)

Re: Shall we ban politics for a day?
 

I don't think for a minute you'd make that mistake Wyn:D
