Yes, it's a bad idea to spend countless hours on "fake elections on a random internet forum" but it's nothing compared to wasting even more time in a chat room gossiping with others and conspiring to come up with weird plans how to be effective trolls as well as generally being nasty to everyone else.
There's really no reason for the cool clique to get on a high horse and scorn the very serious people here.
Yeah, I'm going to stop posting in this thread over and over, but could everyone just stop for one minute and actually understand what your're talking about? The chat room is for anyone to talk about well...anything.
As Talleyrand said when I am on there I am always directing the conversation towards international politics, and most of the time the convo is making fun of Herman Cain and Donald Trump.
Seriously, I do not care or want to know what people's backstory is with a chat room but it can be used for anything and it's rather odd to treat this like some kind of "reefer madness" that's infected people around here.
Again, I honestly don't know or don't care what other people chat about on there, but I really wish the "J'accuse!" actions of some around here to
anyone who dares to enter an IRC to talk about politics would end.
