A board for flamewars?

Postby Zisrith » Sun Jan 10, 2010 7:47 am

I was reading an argument a few moments ago and an idea popped into my mind. And lo, the ocean stilled and the night air quieted as the Earth itself listened intently as I spoke aloud the idea that crossed my mind.
But I wasn't sure if you guys heard me. There's a good chance you didn't so I'm posting it: If there was created a forum specially for hate-filled arguments and flaming and insults, perhaps the rest of the forums would be devoid of such things as the forum dwellers would be regularly getting it out of their systems :D
Since it's a special place intended for flaming, a forum-dweller who had called another a "Useless tub of lard" could easily hold a civil conversation anywhere else on the forums.

Brilliant or absolutely brilliant? :lol:

KoL forums has a "Ring of Flame", I don't see why we couldn't have one here. Sometimes flaming posts get split to Forum Management or what ever it's called, but if there was a public forum for flames and other useless crap, they could all be split there so the flamers themselves might actually realize how often they're doing it.

Exactly. I think it'd help a lot for mellowing people out in the regular forums, as well as entertainment for people like myself who sift around looking for arguments :lol:

Well... Uh... An entire forum would be better! D:<
Then more specific topics could uh... Be put into the forum...
The point is really to make flaming occur less in the normal forums, and if there's a topic for it already, it's obviously not doing a very good job.
