I'm seriously surprised that some of them can get their own name right.

It makes PolSux WAY too much a party political debate B O R I N G !

The way I see it (FD can correct me if I am wrong) this forum was set up with the intention that "General" would be the main place for discussion. Any topics which were too party political and biased would be dumped in the "politicians suck" board.

It just so happens that most members of this forum are cheerleaders for their team so the "politicians suck" board has evolved into the most popular.

The only excuse for people using "text speak" is if they are posting using their mobile phone
