Why Don't You Warn The Member Instead Of Locking The Topic?

Every time a topic about a Trump coin comes up, some members can't exercise self-control and use it as an opportunity to interject politics into the topic to attack Trump, which eventually leads to the topic being locked.

Why don't the mods just delete the offending posts?

If the member doesn't get the hint maybe he needs a warning and or a timeout?


I'd like to talk about the Trump Coins without all the bias political cross talk.

I have no love for Carter—back in the '80s, when I was a teen, I lived in what was a prosperous steel and railroad city until he was elected.

Despite strongly disliking the man, I will discuss his dollar here with out any political overtone.

And I'll even buy it when it's released.


I have enough self-restraint not to derail a topic with off-topic political chatter.

In my opinion, it's very selfish when someone does this.

If you're not interested in a coin because you dislike the person or subject associated with it, there's no need to read the topic, let alone post a long-winded rant about why.

Is that a question or a statement?

If you cross the line in a post, it's removed and you get a polite but very firm email reminding you of CCF rules and policies.

That is not what happens in the Trump Coin topics

They go for a day of 2 and then they get locked

Because no one seems to give a crap about our very well-known rules about this. We've dished out many warnings, and we're done. Move on to something else, or go to a political forum to discuss it. Here's another Trump topic locked.
