Threads about Brexit?

Honestly can't stand politics threads because they accomplish nothing and turn into endless arguments. It's not bad at least in the sense that they're all more or less merged into one, but for Christ's sake this is a board about the Albion, not your soapbox. Leave your political bollocks on Twatter or in the YouTube comments section.

This. I think there should be a separate section for political threads.

Definitely !!!

Politics Stand Chat in a sub-forum, please.

We do try to merge political threads as much as possible, as views are entrenched and consensus never reached, so there is little to be gained from having a myriad of them, and it allows the dullards to find their own corner of the board.

Quite a few political threads are moved to The Other Stuff, to prevent the Main Board being clogged up by a small number of people arguing the same point over and over and over again.

Ultimately some long running ones (such as the Brexit bitchfest) are on the first page because people like to contribute to them, just the same as for the Word Association, Running, Daily Naps etc. threads.

It might at some point be possible to unsubscribe from such threads, so that they don't appear on your Big Board, but I'm not sure where we are with the technology.

Appreciated.

I've long hoped for a 'Thread Zap' Ignore functionality on NSC - it's too much of a pain to have to actively subscribe to threads and then use the subscribed threads view. Although I suppose if new threads automatically subscribed by default then unsubscribing in that view would give what is required.

A time when people had a spine and weren't deliberately looking for anything and everything to be 'offended' about!

Totally agree .
