Absolutely. My arguments that the US was founded on Islamic principles was quote twice by a statistics student to emphasize skepticism of "evidence." My posts in my "Minotaur Poo" thread were quoted by a philosophy student to argue essentially the same thing.

Also, my "Don't Fuck With Texas," Abstinence Only Education Logo was featured in the University's Democratic magazine.

Also my idea (posted in another forum) of timing bombing runs and paratroopers so that paratroopers land almost immediately after the bomb clears in a war zone was used by a fellow engineer in his technical communications/ public speaking class.

Re: PCF sabotaged

Personally I think the PCF servers simply fried themselves in a desperate bid to avoid having to host any more posts about Socializt healthcare policies, flying spaghetti monsters OR Minotaur Poo. I could be wrong though.

Re: PCF sabotaged

I found everyone!

How did so many PCF posters find this forum? After doing a Google search for "what happened to political crossfire" I got this link: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_happened ... ire_forums

At the bottom Quell wrote that everyone came here. How did most of you guys find this new site? Were emails sent out? And does anyone know what exactly happened to PCF? Will it ever be back?

Re: PCF sabotaged

Most of us learned of this forum last Sept, during the last big crash. Just before PCF crashed back then, Quell opened this forum as an emergency meeting place if PCF ever took a big dive. It did. It came back up after a few weeks, but this time things look dire.

What was your name at PCF?

HAHA! Did anyone read Dookiestix's description of what happened to PCF?! Obama winning the election made all the right wingers go crazy and the mods break their own rules! lol

. Check it out.


	Quote: I think that ever since Obama's win, conservatives who run/ran the site were feeling disillusioned, and probably were not looking forward to liberal progressives. The moderation went seriously downhill, with many of them breaking their own rules. I also think that maybe funding for the site isn't happening, which would force them to shut the site down. It's too bad. At one point, it was one of the more evenly balanced political forums I could find on online. But since Obama won, the vitriol just became worse and worse, mostly from the Right. Disillusioned rightwingers have obviously flocked to Fox News and anywhere else where they would feel right at home, and thanx to Obama winning, rightwing radio/television is thriving. But any political forum run by conservatives that at one time was at least trying to have some semblance of ideological balance fell by the wayside after last years election.

That's one way it could have happened.

I love ya Dookie, but that sounds a little.... wishful.

I stopped posting at PCF for awhile, but I remember that crash. Around 4-5 months ago I got more active again; I was mostly posting in the religion forums. Then after the second crash I was waiting for PCF to be restored unaware all of you moved here. I used the same name.

Textbook persecution complex.

Some one should really change that. PCF deserves better.
