- Wrong...You left out one BIG point. I agree poltiices involves those things
- But you must also say the motivation for that must be personal angst against
- the other party. My comment is spurred by no such thing. It wouldn't matter
- WHO was running a server that did this, I still wouldn't like it. You
- and gwyd are trying to make it sound political when it really isn't in order
- to 'lessen' the importance of the issue. Since so many people seem to
- overlook poltical squabbles. Once again, i say this has nothing to do
- with politics. I didn't start this thread. And I don't particularly
- care that it is patriot that I am talking about. If it was any other
- server, I would have said the same.
