New nation thread pulled?

[Strider]

The pulled thread...the moderator discussion came to the conclusion that the topic itself wasn't taboo, and in fact most would be interested to see how such a discussion would turn out. It was the 'few' posters who were pushing at the board rules on making things too personal that was the problem. We all understand that such a topic can become quite heated, but if the initial post starts off on the wrong foot, then things don't go very well for a decent discussion.
