That's kind of where I'm at. I'm pretty sure most on here would just assume I leave and not post a different opinion. The impending end of the forum made me think and I'm pretty sure that several interactions on this forum have made me a more bitter person over the last few years. I'm not sure if I'm going to continue to come around or not. I've only been back posting for a few months after I took a year off, well see. For now I'm going to stick around awhile longer. It really is a great place for Cardinals info, but social draws me like a moth to a flame.
You should definitely hang around.

Now, granted, I haven't been around for a lot of the most recent drama, but I've got to believe that we can all be civil enough to prevent people from actively wanting to leave. We all found our way here to talk about Cardinals baseball at some point, so I hope the common bond and shared experiences can remind us that everybody deserves respect regardless of their political leanings. This has been a particularly chaotic election season, which kinda sucks for reasons that have been born out here recently, but I've got to think we can all adapt a bit. Making sure this place sticks around and being able to chat with all of you guys is way more important to me than trying to belittle someone who doesn't agree with my various opinions.

It's a better board with smart people of every political persuasion commenting.

Just have the mental strength to only come here to read about the Cardinals. But you're free to voice your opinions, no one takes anyone elses opinions like its a life and death situation if you have different views.
