ok, so we had a bit of a flame war over a post

dorkyschoolgirl made about a LJ community to support US troops fighting in the war.

i need to address this now because i really am not sure how i can address this in the future.

as the moderator of this community, here is my 2 cents:

this war effects us all, there is no doubt in my mind about that. but this is not the place to be voicing your opinions. there are many communities where open forums are created so everyone can discuss it and voice their thoughts and viewpoints.

i personally don't care one way or another if you are pro or anti war, pro or anti president bush. this is just not the arena to be saying it.
i think it is inappropriate and for all the news coverage ad press this war is getting, i think there should be outlets for people to get away from it all and this community should be one of them. we are all here to share our creativity and love of crafts. not to argue about our political affiliations.

if you have any real problems with that, please email me or comment. but if i get flamed for posting this i will delete all of the comments.

and

dorkyschoolgirl, i'm sorry but i deleted your post. please post it to
