I have a better idea. Move the long-standing Prop 8 thread from the Parking Lot into the Daily Grind.

It's been nearly 6 months since there was any inappropriate communications in that thread. Keeping it in the Parking Lot makes it seem as if gay rights discussions are too controversial by their very nature and/or should not be read by non-members lest anyone get the wrong impression of the LoT.

That kinda reeks of mousepad-think. I'm sure that's not the motivation for keeping in there on the LoT ... rather, I'm pretty sure it's just that no one's bothered to move it back where it belongs because no one's really thought about it.

Well, now I'm asking that be considered.

Thanks.

OT and I suppose I will regret asking, but ... huh?

Well, the thread started out there, so if you have issues take it up with the OP. I don't care where it's at, myself- but there was no censorship involved with regards to the placement of the thread.

wendy, I could be mistaken I suppose. But I believe the thread was moved there after some argument broke out.

Perhaps I'm confusing it. After Prop 8 there were three or four threads on the subject, and this one came later. Perhaps it was indeed posted in the Parking Lot after earlier ones had been moved there.


Andrew .... I was told by Todd that anything remotely political posted on mousepad had to be relegated to their Parking Lot equivalent so that it could not be read by non-members. He didn't want anything non-happy-pappy to be part of mousepad's public image.

I'm not sure if that policy still exists. I haven't been back since I quit over that policy.

In which case I petition for access to both- because I want to scream and yell about this.
