Theebs should definitely return, I miss him...
He should just realize that unless you follow a certain political philosophy, there is a clique in the Politics Zone that really, really doesn't want you in there... it takes a really thick skin to hang out in there if you're not of a certain political persuasion...
And ultimately, it is precisely that dynamic that renders that board pretty much irrelevant... it's not for political discussion, it's for ranting... for that reason, I only post in there on a hit and run basis any more... I prod the hornet's nest, then sit back and watch the fun...
Which means, of course, that the clique that I refer to universally despises me...
So come back, theebs... MOST of us still love ya...
