    the politics forum is all well and good, but you always feel like you're gonna get a bashing for not having in depth political knowledge, or posting something light-hearted.

    tell me about it, bunch of snobs in there!!

    everything is politics
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    not really
    stuff like natural disasters etc arent.
    also it would be good for the less serious more verging on entertainment stuff too

    Sorry but were unlikely to set up a specific news section -

    Politics and Debate does go beyond just the political world and there has been a drop off recently in discussion of news stories so feel free to post there, don't worry it's not as scary as it can look and the more of you that post there the less of a closed shop it is.

    The Entertainment forum is the perfect place for anyone with Entertainment news.

    Anything else throw into Anything Goes - we'll always move it if it fits better elsewhere.

    They are both soft as shite really, just flick your eyelashes at them and you'll be ok ;)

    Seriously they used to scare me, sometimes they still do. Its because they are all very good writers, me not being to clever i always put my foot in it and say something wht i didnt mean to say, or it comes out the wrong way and then im pounced on :lol::lol:
    The secret is, just start off in not so heated topics, get into a topic that does interest you and at least you are not going to get pulled to pieces.
    If you make a balls up in a post dont be frightened to say "hey i was wrong", I have done that many times as to me theres no shame in admitting you were wrong.

    anyhow good luck for that forum :D

    there you go, your first topic in politics and debate. Remember that forum is also about debate, not just politics :D
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    why and when did they say no? :crying:

    it probably wouldnt take them 5 minutes to make one
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    don't forget that the entertainment board is there for showbiz, music, film news and yes, Jordon has been mentioned - often

    :no: People, post ANYTHING you wish to debate/discuss thats related to the forum, more news stories would be great (probably not about Jordan though tbh unless you mean the country).

    BeckyBoo is always pointing out that she's no expert on Politics and is one of the top contributors to the forum. (and she doesn't hide behind Rolly, if we step out the line, we feel the wrath of Becks :nervous: )
