>>> Politics is a hard topic to discuss. And as someone who gets rather heated about it, and does get very pigheaded about it, I have no clue how to do it well within the guidelines here. It's frustrating, because I really want to write some things that I really don't feel safe posting. (I've got a request in to Dinah that I think she's forgotten, because I don't trust myself to walk that fine line between acceptable, and getting blocked for a year.)<<<
strongly doubt your record is approaching a year in any way, shape or form....(archives show several PBCs in a three month period in 2005 followed by a one week block the next month) you'd have to work very hard to expand that week up to three, then nine then twenty seven and then your maximum of a year. just thought it prudent to counter the "year fear" block as highly likely for those not yet afoul of the civility rules.
if your record differed then perhaps a year time out would be possible..............as it stands now you'd really have to put forth much effort to rack up the PBCs and subsequent blocks.
