Can't wait to join this hidden group. I look forward to spirited debates in a civil manner.
Before I join, may I ask
Is EliteBallerK still copying and pasting 500 page articles instead of just sharing the link?

Why would me not joining make you not participate in it? I don’t really understand

I don't think that is Paul's intention whatsoever.
This is a St. John's sports forum. Paul had made it available in read only format for the world to see what great support we have for our school and sports teams. Politics can get very volatile and fans may say things that is contrary to the best interests of the St. John's image and its students.
If you have thick skin and can take vigorous discussion about politics then this members only thread is good and prevents any injection of politics in the sports threads.

It absolutely was the intention as stated in the political discussion thread. And it’s a great idea.
Thread like The NY Times thread dominated the activity feed and recent topics tab on this site. It was hard to get away from even if you wanted to.
This new tactic is way for people who don’t want to see it, to not have it shoved in their faces. While also letting the ones who do use the platform to continue to discuss these things and have an outlet.
So it’s out of sight out of mind for some, for sure.

Yea sure, I’ve used that before. But not everyone uses the site the same way.
I’m just gonna link Paul’s original post again here because it details why the idea was implemented in a better way than I could

You're out of college now so you don't need to plagiarize with a link. Besides you need to be over a "certain " age to appreciate our political discussions. The new forum is not for political virgins.

I’m not sure what the problem is here lol.
You disputed why Paul decided to add an “opt in forum” and I’m just showing you why he said he did it.

It really has nothing to do with you. I don't see the thread as having any real value. It's not paricularly informative and its almost like a uconn-sju joint thread. Opposing sides and the more that gets exchanged the more friendly relationships are destroyed
