Not being able to exercise the self-control required not to click on a subforum does no subjugate allowance for closure. The mods are pretty draconian when it comes to keeping political threads out of the lounge so you've got that going which leaves you little room to complain.

There have also been mentions of people recruiting friends to post exclusively in DC, a I'd imagine they would all just go away if DC didn't exist. I've done the same lately, too... I will stop by because I'm curious on a certain topic, maybe something discussed with a friend or something posted on social media.... and if that topic is being "discussed", it's nothing more than firing shots to the other side. I understand wanting to vent... there's plenty to vent about when it comes to US politics these days. But, a forum where the sole purpose is to bitch and moan about each other seems pretty pointless.

Possibly the most important thing to keep in mind:
The site is partially (or fully, idk) paid for through ad revenue. And DC is probably as active, if not MORE active than any other sub forum, including The Lounge. You'd have to consider how much traffic could potentially be lost, whether that would effect revenue, and whether that revenue is needed or not. You may not like DC, but i would not be surprised at all if there are days in which D.C is the most active section of the forum.

I agree that it's an embarrassment to the Chiefs and to the Chiefs fan base in a way that this site also houses a sort of qanon microsite. |

Only if told by the world-renowned trial attorney....**** I don't remember his name, but she gave us his resume every time she posted.

And how would you know what Qanon content is? While some in DC take it too far, it's not far from people being called a F'n moron for wanting to draft a Running Back in the first round. There does still remain value in having political discourse.........just the same as sports discourse. Problem with political discourse........there's not many places left to have those types of conversations. If it goes away, will I die? Of course not........I just think it's a slippery slope and in the wrong direction of what this place has always been about. Dont like it, dont go there. pretty simple.
