Welcome to the 'Current Events' Forum!


Basic Description of this Forum:
This forum is to discuss topics that you read about or see on the news--as well as other 'current' news items. You may also post Polls in this Forum, but please, do not abuse this function.

What makes this Forum different from "General Conversation"?
General Conversation is more of a light-hearted Forum for people to chit-chat, meet new folks, talk about how their lives are going, the Cafe, and other great posts, but THIS Forum is...darker. :icon7: Well, it allows the 'hotter' topics, which are: War, Abortion and other discussions. But make no mistake, anyone that slanders/talks badly of ANY Country, their people/customs, creed, etc, they will lose their posting access to Ironworks. We will use Memnoch's 'Strike' System, which was a great Idea!

* You may debate (No personal attacks and/or subtle jab's)
* Making a Poll is fine!
* War discussion - Read above. (Remember, this is just YOUR opinion, not fact)

And we will add to these rules as time goes on, so keep an eye on this Sticky post from time to time!!

Remember, you CAN post fun facts on current events too! Like new pictures of Pluto or whatever..

Enjoy!

Yeah, I remember that Forum. Stayed out of it though. Yessir, Z-man, I shall be polite to all. :Salutes:

<font color=skyblue>What about the North Korean scuffle? Are we allowed to mention them here as well? I think we are closer to real combat with them. But, I may be wrong. </font>

Sure! I don't mind! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Well, as you can imagine, Z, I look on this with two thoughts..."Good, there's somewhere for the war topics to go" and "Oh no, not THAT forum again!" ;) [img]smile.gif[/img]

I do think it was a good idea, though!

Now, let's remember to keep it civil and enjoy the discussions!

Bumping and reminding everyone to look at the dates on the threads before replying. The old War on Terror forum threads are available, but as Z said, he'd prefer you don't bump those unless you really have some dire need to post there. This forum is opened to discuss, Iraq, Korea, Iran...etc.

Heartless, no worries! Everyone does that once in a while! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Drat, I knew someone would see that!

I saw it, too. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well anyways, it's nice to get the last word in once in a while.

From past experience, I think this forum will get nasty like the last time it was active. I hope not, but the signs are there. I'm going to try to not be the inciter of the riots. ;)
