I'll mod it.  Let Michaelt mod it, too.

We had a good group of posters in there and only a few bad apples ruining it for everyone else.  Give me the keys and I'll make Hogville great again.

I'd vote for you, and there is no doubt Michael would represent the site well.

I think pharm was finally tired of doing it after so long.  its understandable.

heck, I'd help too, if needed.  I'm online often enough.

I don't blame him.  It had to be tough doing it by himself.  I'm offering to help, and I know Michael has, too.

There's just too much going on to not have a place to discuss current events.

You and Michaelt would be excellent choices. I miss the board.

I do too.  I looked at a couple of other politics boards, and they were just echo chambers for one side or the other.  I loved the group we had in our forum.

Happy and just as adorable as can be, thanks for asking.  I'll post a pic soon.  She's napping right now.

The last few weeks we've seen a major breakthrough with sleep.  It has been glorious.

We will have to wait a while. The board and posters are just a reflection of the national mood. Until things die down its not going to improve and eventually it would just be you and Mike talking to eachother

Landy probably axed it so we can't criticize Dear Leader

I'm running as a 3rd party candidate for mod.

Nah, we could handle it.  But I can think of worse things than chatting with Michael.  He seems like a great dude.

pharm I think was the only guy advocating to keep it open as long as it was.  the last couple months I could tell he was just over it.

just guess, but without him, I assume those that wanted to see it shut down got their way.

In before this one gets locked also.  The person who counts apparently doesn't really want one.  Only reason he changes his mind is if clicks and ad revenue goes down.  Heck, you have admins publicly wishing for 10 posters in Jump Ball.  Globals who actively trashed Politics in other forums although they rarely showed up there except for the occasional troll job.

Politics was a very popular board.  Give Pharm a little help and it'd work.

I say let Fatty, Hogcard, and hardcore hoggy mod it.

PorkSoda

its too bad that the only people that want it gone are the ones that don't actually participate in the discussion.

I guess that is the nature of politics though.  its the people that don't own guns that want them banned.  its the people that don't hike wilderness trails that want them closed to the public.  etc etc.

My sister-in-law has been trying to get us to watch it. Haven't gotten around to it yet, though.

I only actively posted in Politics.  MMQB & Jump Ball are cesspools.

Please bring back Politics.
