The "no political/religious" threads rule exists because in the past such threads that have been allowed to go on turn into a biiiiig mess and do not reflect very well on the club and the forums in general, so it is simply easier to not allow them than have moderators already busy elsewhere on the forums spend copious amounts of time moderating political and religious arguments. Simple fact is they just get messy, fast!
It's not so much that they are BANNED, but more that we dont want such discussions to take place here for the aforementioned reason. There are of course exceptions, but the rule is there to stop the fighting and attacks between forum members.
With regards to point 3...... i simply meant that if you really feel strongly about a topic that has been shut down etc, then there are other forums which are there for you to use to discuss them. Toymods forums isnt that place.
The original idea of the outhouse was a general "chit-chat" place for topics not car related.... it was not meant to be a post whoring outlet nor a heated-argument haven. Unfortunately these things sometimes happen and that is why moderating exists.
