If you want to do conspiracies then keep them to the conspracy section that SD kindly provided ( after he was rectally probed by greys working for the NWO), or ATS.

BIG CHUNK OF RANT DELETED

This forum is either a prepping and survivalist forum, of which until recently it was the absolute best on the web, OR its going to go the same way as ATS and other forums and become just another place for the weird and wonderful to gather and post.

Excessively moderated forums are aplenty as are conspiracy forums like ATS, I would like to see at least this one focus on solid hard core prepping and self reliance.
Time after bloody time I've said that in 99% of situations we have NO CONTROL over the cause and so we should remain focused on what we can control and thats the preps and planning.
We nearly lost one of our most valuable assets in the fopr of W & C only a short while ago and other solid members have often expressed some concern at the peaks and troughs that sometimes cause dissent.

I'm dead easy going I've already been banned from most other forums for wanting to remain solid on target and hardcore prepping focused, so If I get banned again I'll just accept it as par for the course. But I want to be part of a PREPPING community not a PARANOID one.

I kind of see where you're coming from, but take the Aurora shooting thread as an example. Are you saying that we'd need a post in the news section for it, and another post, pretty much the same, in the "tinfoil hat" section that has links to another side of the story?

Again, there's the phrase "conspiracy theory" - A conspiracy theory explains an event as being the result of an alleged plot by a covert group or organization or, more broadly, the idea that important political, social or economic events are the products of secret plots that are largely unknown to the general public.

So the above doesn't affect your prepping etc? Just because it doesn't seem likely / viable, doesn't mean it's not actually true.

It might just be me, but I want to see all the possible information available on a subject in one convenient place. If that place has stuff I'm not interested in, or don't like, then I won't read those bits.
