From what I can tell, being a real conservative (fiscal AND social) is probably a sure-fire way to get black-balled.

I also notice they have a system for "sinking" threads; from what I could tell the last time I visited, most threads relating to immigration were pushed off the front page. I can recall another forum that attempted such a system (LF) and IMO it was a disaster. I appreciate the fact that this site self regulates what appears on the front page based upon user demand - not the whims of a few moderators or posters.

They use “stickies” over there to keep certain threads on top. I have been involved in other forums that are of a technical nature and the stickies are very helpful to immediately access help files, etc., but the WAckos are using them to push certain news items over others.
