    Unbelievable, *BUT* the military assault on Ukraine, these days, is a tragedy that the whole World and mankind have not known since the terrorist attack on New York and the Pentagon, on September 11th, 2001. Remember?? :rose: :(( . Horrible and scared about that!!!

      Not sure why we need so many Ukrainian war posts here in the Lounge.

        Because many CodeProject members are worried about that situation, having a special interest in the latest news from Ukraine, as you probably already have known from posts of the others. By the way, this one would be the last post of mine. :sigh: I just wanted to recall that this is just as a similar case as the terrorist attacks on the US, on Sept. 11st, 2001, twenty-one years ago. :rose: :sigh:

          We probably need not - but at the same time we can be tolerant especially in case when OP actually lives there...

            Its too much, whether they live there or not. I don't need multiple people, per day, reminding me how sad the situation is with Ukraine. Tolerance has a breaking point; it's not infinite as some may think or want to believe.

              The trouble with that is that we also have Russian members - and they probably view the situation rather differently, just as the Palestinians and the Israelis see their conflict from different viewpoints. And while I personally agree with you, and don't object to your posts the fact remains that this is a political situation, and such matters are banned in the Lounge. We'd hate to lose you - to the war or the Ban Hammer - but I'd suggest that there are better forums / sites for this before someone with an opposing view starts getting upset. Not a threat, not a warning - just some friendly advice. Good luck, and stay safe - you and yours will me in our minds until this is over. :rose:

                I'm apologizing, but all my posts are the responses to the other members, interested in the war situation in Ukraine. As I've already explained this was my final post regarding this topic on the Lounge. :rose: Anyway, thank you very much for paying your attention to this matter. Cheers!

                      I'd say it's the worst development since the German taking of Poland.

                        It's really bad and it really sucks! I'd make an exception for the "no politics in the lounge"-rule for this. Stay safe and hopefully this will all end soon :rose:

                          The freedom of the West is at stake, Putin won't stop at Ukraine. Literally the whole of Europe is feeling this (not as bad as Ukraine though), but I'm sure you're more comfortable with another CCC or another cricket post. This guy is telling us his friends and family are being killed, his homes destroyed, and all you say is you really don't need to know :thumbsdown: You, and the "no politics in the lounge"-police, could use some empathy.

                            Do you mean that we can still post messages about the war conflict in Ukraine? Right?

                                What is the criteria that allows politics in the lounge? What is the dividing line? Politics are banned here (and in other non-technical forums I visit) to reduce arguments. If we start making exceptions, then we have fights regarding the politics of those exceptions ... As has been noted, there are many places where the discussion is allowed. This is not one of them. If anyone is angry at me for posting this, well, you've proven my point.

                                  Hell yes I'm angry. Not because of the no politics rule or people pointing that out when politics are posted, but because someone is scared for his life, scared for his loved ones, scared for losing everything he has and he lets us know he's okay for now AND PEOPLE CAN'T GET OVER THE POLITICS OF HIS POST!? Maybe you've missed his point. His point was "I'm not dead (yet), but I may soon be", not to start a political discussion. And instead of "Be strong, you have our support, hang in there, glad you're doing okay!" He get's "I'm getting really tired of your troubles." And "No politics in the Lounge." You people suck. You must all be programmers because you have the social skills and empathy of a potato :(
