Have the uhnd brass ever considered a Political Forum?

Cost prohibitive? Not enough mods? Not enough posters?

I would imagine the number of “hits” from lurkers has gone down. That can’t be good for business.

Maybe the Footy drives everything and the OF is just an ancillary playground.

Just curious. The OF has gotten very repetitive.
Not sure what the solution is.

Ah, "The Polly". It didn't work.

We don't have enough traffic to support a bunch of different forums. It was confusing for people to have multiple forums with potentially overlapping topics (The Open: where any topic is open, except politics?). There were too many opportunities for posts intended as non-political to turn political. It just means we run two "political" forums.

At the end of the day, it's a Notre Dame site, and the Open is here to keep the non-football talk off the football board. The Open gives ND folks the chance to talk about other topics together, but it's not really our purpose.

Over time, the board has become low T, replacing hottest chick brackets with political debate. Sad.

This is a political forum.

You simply wish to suffocate the opinions of those posters who disagree with your right wing narratives.

You suggested we move to other countries.

Try to engage the discussion threads with substance for a change.

It”s an “open” forum.

Still playing the victim card and blubbering lies.

I support a person’s right to move to another country
If they choose to do so.

Your repetitive bleatings shovel DNC “substance” and not your own original thought.

The suffocation comment is absurd.

Post away, comrade.

Had one over a decade ago. It didn't work.

People want to talk about what they want to talk about. Politics became our new religion, and, as a result, fewer people have an interest in McSweeney's shaving of his nut sack, back in the good ole days of the Open Forum.

Thanks. I guess a sad demise is just inevitable.

I can see a day very soon where only 10-15 OCD posters will post here. It’s a shame.
