Good luck finding one.
No seriously, what would these issues be? Other than obvious ones that we all can agree on, like pedophilia should remain illegal, it's hard to find something that we can reach an agreement on. I suppose issues like abortion, gun control, war in
and death penaly are out of the question. We've already have had heated debates about those. What about all non-American members, does our voice weigh as much as the Americans on issues that deals with internal politics? And what about all the IW members that don't even visit the 'Current Events' forum?
I understand your idea and it's always refreshing with new ones, but would this really work. I don't think so.
You are free to rally people to any cause you might feel strongly about, as long as it doesn't break any rules here, but I think that IW itself should be kept outside any political initiative. If IW falls under a political label, that might be disturbing to some members as there's always some that will disagree. IW is first and foremost a gaming community and should be kept that way.
