SERIOUS DISCUSSION
Use this forum to talk about subjects that are off-topic, but are more serious in nature than the usual humor or fun chatter that takes place in Off Topic. This includes controversial topics (such as politics), which is why you should remember:
Absolutely no flaming. There will be a zero tolerance policy in this section, and causing any sort of problems will result in an instant and possibly permanent ban.
Do not intentionally incite flamewars or jump into a topic just to cause problems; this falls under the above "no flaming" rule and will have the same consequences.
Although you will be given some leeway as far as subjects to discuss, all other forum rules apply. For example, you may discuss the legality of drugs, violence in movies, etc., but you may not discuss how to use drugs, or post pictures of the violence.
If you can't discuss serious topics in a mature and reasonable fashion, then get out. This forum is not for you.
This is how another forum has set up a forum for SERIOUS DISCUSSIONS. It has worked out so far.. (
