I wouldn't mind watching The Lounge as a good majority of the trolling and flaming originates there. I'm not advocating the removal of threads or posts unless they're REALLY defamatory to another member, but since it seems that some people here lack the self-control to censor themselves, statements like "you're an idiot for having that opinion" or "worthless troll" used whenever somebody posts something somebody else doesn't agree with are going to need to be edited out. It's just detrimental to the forums as a whole, and doesn't exactly help our members feel better about themselves for coming here in the first place. Members are certainly entitled to their opinions, but when they start calling each other names, it becomes quite impossible to hold an intelligent debate. What the forums need occassionally is a good scrubbing; not carte blanche censorship, but just a general clean-up of the language used so that we may have a more professional image to present to the outside world. :cool:
