I seriously doubt Trains magazine is getting idealogical here. If you ever volunteer for Moderator on a website, you'll see a great many Internet posters have ulterior motives, complain a lot about trivial matters, etc. Maintaining peace on a discussion forum is not as easy as it looks.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Trains Magazine is HQ'd in Waukesha, next to the district State Patrol HQ. Really not a hotbed of Liberalism there.<img src="/TRCCS/emoticons/emotion-11.gif" alt="Cool" /></p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">I think you are right about why the thread was locked. But my point was responding to the previous poster who wonderd why the magazine has a political ideology while prohibiting politics on the forum. </span></span> </p>
