There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The answer to life, the universe, and everything. ( Not 42!)
Religions around the planet try to answer those question, many of them disagree. It brings out the most basic insecurities in most people.
The structure of religion always come with a code of conduct, rules and regulation. They often disagree with other systems, create conflict.
These rules blend into politics. Law and freedom. Again, many conflicts. Basic ones. And very basic insecurities are again brought to the surface.
This is essentially the most stressful stuff, and there will always be massive conflict to dominate and challenge simply because of how basic and fear based the root of this all is.
What is SimOuthouse? A hobbiest flightsim sight. A realization of aviation enthuisiasm at the home computer.
It's an amazing hobby that's generated technology and home experience that I never thought I'd see in my lifetime.
And it's not the answer to life, the universe, and everthing. It's simply an enjoyable diversion from the difficult path of life that we must endure in our own way.
Why bring the basic fears and conflict into this fine oasis. Why not check the guns in at the Marshall's office and just enjoy this place for what it was originally designed for. Enjoyment, release of stress, satisfaction and pursuit of curiosity about aviation.
There is a place for the hard stuff....I've already written. The deterent is that the exploiters would find it real work in that place. Truly they're looking for a soft target.
That's what Newshawks has become.

i do not want to do anything change rules etc
and so far i see no reason to ban anyone

I suppose we should stop the Happy Birthday threads now too ...![]()
We were doing this with FS... FS2004 people going into the FSX room and starting riots. FSX people going into the FS2004 room and causing heck... I say grow up... Even I was doing that, making bad comments about FSX and yeah, it was wrong, and yeah, I learned my lesson, and yeah, I dont do it any more. I threw rocks at other peoples interests and it was wrong.. Bottom line.
What I find "funny" (read pathetic,) is the number of people who know a thread could be potentially "harmful to their over sensitive feelings", and yet open the thread anyhow, become offended as they suspected they would, and then cry about it.
i believe i get one a year:salute:Why? Because birthday threads are elitist? The rules say that there are no politics and religion in newshawks. You're trying to say birthdays and religion are the same. They are not. Birthdays are not a belief system.

Ah, the good old "taking the internet too seriously" thing...

Law and the foundation of our nation and belief system are based on Christian values.

Birth and children are gifts from God to be celebrated, at least where I came from. Just an observation.
Another observation: Law and the foundation of our nation and belief system are based on Christian values.
