Should The Political Discussion Board Remain?

Definitely agree. I'm still on team Burn It Down, but if we're keeping it, every major election, US or otherwise, needs its own thread, run by someone without a toxic history. I'd add that we might benefit from having a thread for the major political parties of the US, and a thread for news surrounding the current US president. Perhaps similar threads for other countries as well, if there's enough demand. We do this for the major console manufacturers, and it works alright there.

I don't see how that works - that's like saying, "Every post that has to do with Mario, should be pushed into one thread titled 'Nintendo'"...

 

Edit: Well, I take that back - Hylian's post made more sense, because he's breaking things down. The first one was just a general "Put everything in one post", which I didn't agree with.

My original post was more specific, I was just reiterating the point.  Not saying all political stuff should be locked and pushed to one thread, just anything to do with the upcoming us presidential election.  The forum gets flooded with tons of threads every four years, stuff about debates and who is running and what this person stands for and blah blah blah.  I just think anything related to the presidential election should go to one thread, we don’t need a million different threads to discuss essentially the same thing.
