All well and good, but I also noticed that two posters from the highly politicized TCM Off Topics have already posted very political comments on the other site.
Probably won't sign up with the other one because I would just go down that bad road again and I don't need that anymore. I'll stay with movies, TV's and so forth.

So glad I didn't join that one now, I was watching to see where any of those Off Topic Political posters were going and I was going to avoid that site

No "hopefully" about it, as far as I'm concerned.

I intend to report off-topic political posts to SSO administrators and will be all over mischief-making provocateurs and gadflies like white on rice and stink on ca-ca!

Recommendation: If you don't want politics discussed on the SSO, DON'T enable and encourage troublemakers!

Were you the guy who had Charles Coburn as your avatar? I always loved that look of disgusted contempt on his face there.

Apologies for the poor formatting. I'm still learning how this site works, and the current quoting function is a mess for me.

We have: The Domestic CAT: Feline at its finest!
viewtopic.php?t=3436

It currently runs ninety pages. Most of the early posts are stories of cats but it gradually transitions into mostly images and videos.

There are some people I miss already. It's not like we can count on new people just showing up like on TCM's. Unless we get some disenchanted ones from Tops board. I hope we can keep this place going.
