I voted yes too. However, it should be kept civil.
Vote in the Poll please!!!

Thankyou Ulf and Sharkey, yes a bit late! Just checked the results again.
67% yes 29% no 4% don’t know.
Surprised to see the poll is still running after all this time.
Anyway, bit pointless, the decision was made.

Open discussion is a team which's members use politics and relligion as an excuse to insult each other.

Well, yes, sometimes, but at least the Open Discussion Group is entertaining.
As well as political and religious debates, there have been admin wars, a mutiny, bannings….
Anyway, it’s a lot more lively than Off Topic.

Yes, a real mutiny. I think about 10 people left (not Mexi)
Sad Mexi left. Hopefully he will come back.
There is a lot of drama in OD Lofina. And not many women, come and join in…though it is not for sensitive souls I can tell you that..

Yes, join OD, Lofina !!!! You'll meet some of the craziest people you've ever met! (Carla is there too, you know)

It would be good if civilised political debate would be accessible in off topic, but with vocal characters like Big S it's best left in OD.

Well, yes, some people there can be a bit much… agreed.
Off topic just seems to have been mainly taken over teenagers/ trolls and spammers.
I prefer freedom of speech to the teenage "who can count to 50,0000” type of topics.
Just it is a shame if you have a Global site, and people are not allowed to have any kind of interesting discussions.
So 63% of 65 people want to be able to discuss politics in off-topic in a polite way. That can't be too much to ask!!
