Of course it takes away from the other sections. People carry grudges onto other sections, and instead of discussing racing, which is what the board is based on, people spend all day talking about Michelle Bachmann or abortion.
I'm sure Byk is real excited about that. He tries to promote racing, not politics.
How many of the people that spend most of their time in this room bet frequently? In my opinion, not many besides Chuck and Dell. That's fine, there isn't some requirement on betting, but again, this is a board on racing.

i just dont understand your opinion. Byk doesnt even read the politics forum. And nobody has to explain themselves on how they choose to occupy their time.
there are no betting requirements, like you said, or even horse racing requirements. I've known Byk for probably 15 years, and racing is a big part of my life (used to be more) so that is what brought me here. I just happen to have more to say down here than in the Padlock. I don't bet much because I dont have extra money to lose. I use it for golf.
and the amount of hits the politics subforum generate probably actually help the website when it comes to popularity.
