I hope I don't get banned for this, because I have a very interesting story to tell.
You're not telling a false story are you? Why are you worried about getting banned?
I do this for fun. I'm not interested in politics.
I can understand how you want to break the tension and make something light and fun. You are expected to follow the rules of any forum that you belong to. People will respect you more if you follow along.
Was I breaking a rule by talking about politics?
I don't know of any specific rule about politics in general. If you are worried about getting banned it would be a good idea to find out what's okay and what's not. You wouldn't want to unknowingly violate a rule.
