    The system, has been built like a house of cards, but on a strong foundation built by the founders. It will only be a matter of time until we add the final card and the house comes crumbling down. But, we will still be left with a strong foundation to build on. Things must always get worse before they get better.

    However, I know America is a great country. There are many countries, China for one, where voicing disapproval of the government in public/online is enough to get your door knocked down at ungodly-thirty. There is not too many countries that offer as much freedom of speech as America. The drawback here is that while America may have the most freedoms, America may also have the most irresponsible citizens. Freedom + Irresponsibility= ______________(insert negative consequence here).

    Perhaps someone here who has traveled (or lives) abroad can enlighten me, but it seems that Americans fail to take accountability for their actions. Everything is someone else's fault. Is this something unique to Americans or is it becoming a world wide problem. Where did all this stem from?

          Really, do we have to have political discussions here? This Joe guy is obviously a rabble rouser from the far left. Notice his current avatar is Karl Marx.

                Yeah, it's seem obvious. There are a lot of threads that just don't interest me, and I don't post in them. I don't complain about them.

                  C'mon Tom. How do you expect us to get points if we don't participate in every thread? :^D

                      They aren't for anything right now. I believe they'll be reset in the future, and point accumulation will go towards incentives. It's currently still in test phase.

                        I think that is a horrible idea. And one without purpose.

                        It's not like we are suffering from a lack of postings.

                        And a reset will piss me off for some reason.

                          Although, that in itself might make it worthwhile!

                            All the Marx brothers were somewhat rabble rousers. Except maybe chico. Manfred Marx didn't have a chance to be a rabble rouser.


                            .........and no we don't have to have political discussions here. But they happen anyways. I don't see anything wrong with them.....so far.
                            Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





                            I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.

                              I don't know the details. I'm a little ambivalent of a point system myself, but as long as everyone can act like adults(!? :^P), it should be fun for everybody.

                                I think I'm gonna change my avatar to Ernesto Guevara. You know, just because.
