The conspiracy forum has become a dumping ground political topics that foster an extra level in american checks and balances, the civilians right to question the validity and transparency of government operations.
People who see the heading of that forum not being familiar with the history of this site will NOT engage in debate over those topics....
the heading is slanderous, and offensive to those who take those very valid topics seriously.
Please PM any moderators and / or admin and ask them to delete that forum, and least rethink their allocation of hypothetical and theoretical political research. |

No, absolutely not. That means the return of spamming the P&G with ridiculous 9/11 conspiracy threads and the ilk. |

| I agree, having 9/11 was caused by bush threads seriously clogs up P+G. |

| People that like to debate the political issues come to P&G and people who want to spam conspiracy vids go to the conspiracy forum, I don't why this is a problem. You should prefer this agrangement over getting banned because of the spamming, it's obvious that no one here believes that nonsense, they are just peddling those loony videos and have the exact same sales pitch each time. |

9/11 isn't even really the worst of it. A guy just recently posted a thread about republican and democratic corruption and cooption, and he was moved to the conspiracy forum because of his unfortunate thread title.
This is a problem. |

It's not going anywhere for the reasons stated. But the admin are open-minded if you have suggestions on changing the name, although it seems to fit pretty well.
Quote: Conspiracy, in common usage, is the act of working in secret to obtain some goal, usually understood with negative connotations. Etymologically, the term comes from Latin con- "with, together", and spirare "to breathe".
I understand you're upset at the "negative connotations" part, but that's the society we live in. And I don't think there's a better option considering that dropping all the 9/11 threads back in P&G is out of the question. |
