Isn't that exactly what you're doing too, though?
- robg 18y agoThe guidelines don't matter for this discussion? It seems to me it's the only thing that should matter. Without them, this site has no focus whatsoever.
- aslkjdf 18y agorobg. Regarding the site having focus. I suggest you re-read the guidelines. When the guidelines are as vague as "If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic." it's not as easy as just throwing the guidelines at someone.
- robg 18y agoYou're missing the point. The guidelines are the only thing that should matter. Without them, this community has exactly zero form.
- Jem 18y agoNo, that's not what I'm saying. Although I agree with the OP that the political stuff is getting dull, I believe you have a point about the guidelines (that means I agree with you). However, complaining that the OP is going against the guidelines and therefore doing the same thing yourself seems somewhat hypocritical. Of course, here I am doing exactly the same thing really. Surely you could just do what you/others have told the OP to do, and flag the 'submission'?
