World News & Events

Ever since world news was moved, some should i say intellectual snobs have been complaining about it seemingly not wanting the extra attention it will recieve for the fear of more "simplistic posts", i dont see this as a problem as it's up to the person responding if they wish to reconise the post and any spam, personal attacks ect usally get moderated.

Apparently it was.

I didn't mean to be so final. I think it was worth a try and we should give it more time to see how it plays out.

After all, it's just a forum, nobody is going to get too badly injured. B)

The pen (or keybaord) is mightier than the sword (or STFU ).
