When I read it all like this, I always feel sorry for everything when there was a dispute here. It is already better with the decision of Gamble Joe.

So, in principle, I personally have no problem with it, as long as you can just discuss the topics now and then in the chat corner.


But, the 41% is already very creatively designed. The answer option was: "I abstain from voting because it neither interests me nor bothers me".
Just as well you could add the 41% to the yes votes because these users simply don't have a problem with these topics.

So the bottom line is that there is a minority of 36% who are bothered by these issues and a majority of 64% who either want to talk about them or have no problem with them being talked about.
Anyone who also had statistics evaluation and survey evaluation in the course of study would interpret this result this way.

As I said, basically no problem with it, but if you go purely by the survey, then it's the wrong decision because it says exactly the opposite.

I don't know if you really looked at the result, but 41% voted "I think off-topic political topics have no place on GambleJoe and should be stopped by the GJ team". Now where is the named creativity in that?

Did you read through my post, or where exactly is 41% the majority?

Moin Moin,

first of all you have slightly twisted the numbers in your post. It was 41% at "I think off-topic political topics have no place on GambleJoe and should be stopped by the GJ team". But that's just by the way.

Basically, if 2/5 of the community has a problem with the topic, that's basically already very serious.
The mentioned 36% have no real interest in the topic because they clicked "I abstain, because it doesn't interest me and doesn't bother me". These can therefore not be directly assigned to the 23%, because there is ultimately no interest in this topic in the forum.

Since you throw the study of statistics into the room, you should know that the evaluation of a survey always depends on the question. One cannot simply tinker the results as one would like.

From the general question "How do you stand to off-topic political topics in the forum?" the following can be derived first:
1. 41% of the votes are against political topics in the forum
2. 36% of the votes are not interested in the topic, even if it does not bother them
3. 23% of the votes consider the exchange about political topics in the forum important.

This means that after all 41% of the respondents have something against this topic, if you consider all opinions for themselves. In other words, the majority.
In the same way, one could also evaluate that 41%+36% have no interest in this topic in the forum. This quantity could also be added up. This would also be the majority.

For your example, the question would have to be asked differently. If you would ask directly if you are against political topics in the forum, your example would be correct. But that was not the question.

A pure matter of opinion, you could also interpret, I have no problem with it, therefore it can also go away because it does not interest me!

And why does a student see it the same way as you do?
So only a studied can follow your opinion !??

In truth, you turn it to yourself just like everyone else!

Why not go to a forum that is intended for this.
That has the advantage that you can find enough like-minded people there who want to discuss political issues.
Here you have maybe a handful, if any, who participate in the discussion.

I have taken over the numerical error from Matthias, but it does not matter.


I have written that I find the decision basically good, because the political topics just stay where they belong in a gambling forum - in the chat corner. Thus, the topic was not completely banned, if you take it exactly, it does not really change anything.

Even though I still think it's kindergarten somewhere when grown people are against something they could easily stay away from and want to ban other people from something. It's not like a thread has any effect on an adult person, you just can't click on it. Instead, a few mimosas want to ban opinions that don't match their own and something has to be said against that. No more and no less I do and now iss yes again well with the topic. From my side, everything was said about it and everyone can form his own opinion about it.

The rest referred only to statistics evaluation and there I have honestly only little desire to discuss that now in detail and would end anyway only in a nerd talk between us both, which should be quite uninteresting for the other users.

But people GJ has not completely banned the topics they have said such topics may be briefly addressed in the chat corner or Meckerecke so it is a good solution

Thus, all who are interested can briefly exchange and others who actually have no interest and those who reject it completely can briefly dispense with it and then the next few days to use the normal chat corner again

I think it is a fair solution for all sides no one has to keep his opinion to himself and the others do not have to read 50 pages about a political topic

so you see the use of the chat corner for short-term politics as not normal use of the chat corner at !!!
this is exactly the point that bothers me about your and the gj compromise. think logically.

in summary: (generally valid for every user*in here)

  • if you are not interested in politics at all, should you avoid the chat corner / bitch corner, which you usually like to read, for a few days as soon as political stuff is posted in it? (read over is not really possible).

  • what is meant by briefly touched? a few sentences? a few days? each interested may write once what to it? or if a mod is too hot then it is terminated?



quasi take over the few hanseln politically interested the chatter / complain corner for a certain period of time until the individual thinks it's enough? a bit unfair to the majority of other users, or!

also find such people hypocritical who always give of themselves, I'll write something about politics then peace is? I do not see on the basis of recent events here at all. page-long quarrels, links in various threads that are supposed to move one to accept the opinion of others etc etc

politics is a complex too hot iron as that one could dismiss it here in a few sentences. besides, it has so far always degenerated into extreme quarrels here.

sorry, but your new regulation that political topics can be briefly touched here is too vague for me.

it is also not a ban on talking, it should simply not be offered here due to the survey results, otherwise you could have saved the survey and immediately reinschreib the compromise as a new rule

gladly I tell you the only logical way after gj feel the need of each user*in just.

just open a new corner, name it (political, briefly touched) and delete immediately every post that is posted outside this corner about politics and moderate the new corner as you like.
then politically not at all interested can avoid this corner, do not have to stumble constantly in the other corners over it and the chatter / mecker corner is again normal readable for chatterboxes and everyday meckereien

No offense, but aren't you, for example, involved in all these "quarrels" from time to time? what I've noticed here in the last few months. Always in the middle of it and then act as if it's none of your business and it's always some other, runs...


How can you get upset about something in which you do not want / need to participate?

Normally you should then ban everything except gambling, this whole off-topic permanent spamming of some "Hanseln" here also extremely annoying...

Yes, for that I have to endure then also page-long discussions about cucumber prices. Should this also be banned so that I do not feel disturbed?


What you like to forget in this survey is that it did not end with 100% and there are also people who see it differently. Therefore, Matthias has managed quite a good balancing act, in which he tries to make it more or less right for both sides.

But it's exactly people like you who are the reason why I'm holding the line here. Honestly, I don't have to discuss politics in a gambling forum, but such ideas as yours simply have to be contradicted. Just because it's already common practice to want to ban other opinions doesn't mean it makes it any more right. Just think again about what you are asking for and what it actually means.

now and then, have my opinion on the way said, but never politicizing. nothing for bad.

who is getting upset? i just expressed constructive criticism and made a suggestion for improvement.

I may have overdone it, but I don't care. I'm still one of the newer here anyway, but everyone should do what he thinks is right. And as long as it is within the framework of the moderators and the team here, everything is good.
