| The use of this (aside from the fact that it let us have the politically bickering [[offtopic:Leo Caesius]] and [[offtopic:Paul Spring]] appear as C-3PO and R2-D2) is due to [[offtopic:Thande]]'s personal belief that political argument on Internet forums never changes anyone's opinions and only leads to tempers being raised and people saying things in the heat of the moment that gets them banned. Therefore anyone who uses the forum purely for political argumentation is looked down upon, treated as sub-human in the AH.com Wars-verse. This is largely based on the Yorkshire tradition of deep contempt for those who hold strong political views (see [[offtopic:Sargon]]). | The use of this (aside from the fact that it let us have the politically bickering [[offtopic:Leo Caesius]] and [[offtopic:Paul Spring]] appear as C-3PO and R2-D2) is due to [[offtopic:Thande]]'s personal belief that political argument on Internet forums never changes anyone's opinions and only leads to tempers being raised and people saying things in the heat of the moment that gets them banned.
