Forum observations and contemplations

Before I get some breakfast (oatmeal and fruit help your
cholesterol and keep you regular - TMI)

- It seems you can post almost anything non Clemson football
in the Tiger football forum like:
"Best seafood restaurants in Savannah" which is neither football
nor Clemson related (Ampitheater requirement) -
http://www.tigernet.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=1458634&tstart=48
or stuff about other Clemson sports -

- You can post a lot of non Clemson related stuff in the Ampitheater
and/or other main board forums (even if political in nature) if it at
least has an indirect Clemson connection like an ACC tournament -

The points above are really not that big a deal to me (or most readers
and posters) except for some double standards by posters and the mods:
- Any post with anything about God or religion in it will get several
replies about taking it to the P&R board and will eventually get sent,
http://www.tigernet.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=1458689&tstart=0
The seafood topic had about 20 replies, none about taking it to the
"Lunge" and it stayed on the "Mange".
- There were many topics started about Dabo and the award and the
speech and the FRC and the PFC which were both political and religious
but since they were about the head FB coach, they stayed Main, fine,
but a couple of 'em got "banished" to P&R. Why selective?

A few wonderings to finish my long chat:
- Do many Tnetters visit P&R or the other boards (besides the Lounge)
much except maybe to see where threads ended up? Most threads that
are moved are probably started on the Main boards for this reason,
to get some discussion before it dies in purgatory.
- Do the mods move some threads as soon as they see them or do they
let them sit awhile to observe reactions and traffic for ad purposes
or whatever? Do they only move a couple to make a point?
- Finally, why is anything God or religious so polarizing & intense?
Is it because it affects or "attacks" your beliefs, emotions,
convictions, your life in general?

Re: Oops, wrong last link

No, you may be referring to bigal1, i kinda stole his name

one of the tenets of my personal religion is to avoid

Exercise... good idea! That helps a lot of stuff.***

much of the time, but exercise is supposed to relieve stress

I learn't yesterday that Christians can't eat shrimp or pork

To answer your very last question, some of those

The attack on Dabo isn't religious persecution...
