They did the right thing.
Frankly, I'm tired of partisan politics coming up everywhere I go. I support a "shoot on sight" policy against overtly political posts on this forum.

Civil discussion of the politics directly affecting our coinage and money are germane, IMO. The problem is that it is virtually impossible to keep anything from bursting into flames as soon as politics or religion are invoked, even on those rare instances where it is relevant and on-topic.
Let me take a stab at this.
3 pages and no coins?

<< <i>The case could be made about half of the Gold and Silver threads that are posted here. Just strange that the rules are not even and equally applied. >>
Lets see
Gold - Silver used in coinage.

Just a side thought; PCGS makes the forum possible.
I'm not a lawyer, but liability must be a concern.

ditto...I'm not sure I like the censorship here.
<< <i>Plus it leads to some complaining and whining in a way that makes the political posts pale in comparison. So shut it off at the source.

The professor should have said "were reelected" rather than "was" as this is the subjunctive case.
It would seem it is only a matter of time before this forum goes the way of the OF given the types of threads recently.

If your going to quote me please quote my entire quote so it is in context please.....and if it's the censorship that offends you I for one can relay this from experience on this board.There are rules to follow ..plain and simple and some folks just get carried away with their emotions and let go......
