It's their site. They can do anything they want. You don't have to be here. I don't have to be here but I choose to be here.

I like the fact that politics is *(for the most part) off limits. There are those of us who actually think about our politics and it is nice to have a place where we are not assaulted by the typical hollywood belief system. Here (for the most part) posts revolve around making movies and we get to carry on civil conversations (for the most part). Only real problem I have with the no politics rule is the mods tend to let the pro left posts linger a bit and lock down the pro right posts a lot quicker IMO.

I am sorry but that was out of line. I agree 100% with the person who posted above me. You do NOT have to be here but you choose to. There are several political forums if you want to discuss that stuff but having it off limits allows us to maintain positive relationships and carry on civil conversations about the things we are supposed to - films.

Regarding the person above me, however, who made a claim about a Mod bias. Whether or not I agree with that is a moot point, since discussing it is out of the question against the rules, but I think if there was validity to that statement that person should contact a mod before posting it here.

When I saw this thread I was a bit skeptical and figured it was on it's way out. It probably is, because I see absolutely nothing to discuss here except the man admitting he had an affair which is dangerously close to that political line. She uses a DVX, okay, maybe she should join the site. Keep it civil folks, don't argue and don't say anything political else I will make a statement that will be against the rules, will get this thread closed and probably get me banned. Don't make me do that.

Eastside, the mods try their best to promote a healthy and fun environment here free of fiery discourse (which will always erupt if politics are allowed) and for the most part they do a pretty damn good job. I have said it before and I will say it again: I have had the pleasure of meeting several of them in person and they are fantastic people who genuinely care about the membership and the site. Please do not make gross statements demeaning the people who have given you so much. :)
 
Just because the guys a politician doesn't make the subject line political. It's a pic of a blonde holding a DVX for C-sakes.....
 
Just like a seasoned bartender will tell you, "Lay off the religion and politics in here."

Some taboos are good for business.

Anytime, John. Just speaking up for what's right.

Oh, and as for the subject matter, I didn't say it was political, I said I didn't see what we could possibly discuss on this subject besides politics. If you have another idea, go for it. I was also spreading a friendly reminder to keep it civil. That's all.
 
Hey, if I was John Edwards I would of hit that. She has good taste in brands. now if she had an HVX on the other hand. How could you NOT sleep with her to get the goods?

and by goods.. I mean the HVX of course.

See guys, it was ploy. He was so busy spending 400 dollars on haircuts, he didn't have enough left over for a DVX, duh! so you do what you gotta do!

I can keep going if you guys want.

Good luck with this working in entertainment. Remember thinking is not allowed. I have to agree that honestly I don't see a political discussion coming from a chick with a DVX. And generally the discussions here a pretty civil.

Rofl, I didn't understand this thread at all until I just saw the news about 5 minutes ago.

You can certainly do all those things - just not here. If you don't like it here, please feel free to take your discussions to one of those other places. Thanks for respecting the policies that have made DVXUser so successful for five years running.

Thanks Cryogenic. This is exactly how we feel about it.

We try to exterminate posts equally quickly. Recently we've tried having a lighter hand on it, letting things linger around longer to see if they're gonna head south. I tend to think we should keep an equally no-tolerance policy, but we're always willing to experiment to refine how the forum runs, and we've tried having a more lax hand on that rule. For the most part it hasn't backfired on us, but posts like Eastside's above are pretty much the reason why I prefer to have a clear-cut no-questions-asked rule: so we don't even start down the path.
