    Suggestion for Discussing Cartoons and Memes

    Political Cartoons and Memes is dedicated to posting cartoons and memes. And the general rule is no discussion is allowed there. Naturally, some are provocative and demand discussion.

    So copy the image to a new thread and discuss.

    Just right click on the image you want to discuss, select "copy image address" and paste it between [img] tags (or however you want to do it) in a new thread. Then discuss.

    Right, too easy.

    Once or twice I accidentally commented there- I use the What's Knew list and click on what is interesting. Sometimes when I get to a specific post, I forget the subforum it is in.

    I have made the mistake of commenting in the cartoons and memes section. I can't see half of the pics that are in there anyways, and some of them that I can see are gross. So I don't peruse it very often. Sometimes when I do, I instantly regret it. Too bad because there are some good ones mixed in.

    I don't think commenting is a real problem, it used to happen so rarely. Lately, it's become bickering. Thanks @Chris for this helpful suggestion.

    Right, there've always been the occasional comment here and there but now it's turning into arguing/bickering and detracting from the cartoon and meme theme of the thread.

    If I may? If you want to offer a comment about something that pisses you off in the political cartoon section, do your call out in The Hole. That's what The Hole was created for.

    That works, too.

    We'd hate to have to ban people from that thread.
