Not saying you'll get one, but I'm curious. ;)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

If properly moderated, but it goes against GS, our site... pretty much everything but the fact we're a community.

If you do make one, it will end up as a sort of "The Pit®"...


If you moderate it well enough, it could turn out to be a good thing.

Make it a Debate forum as a sort of outlet for people. It lessens the clutter in the main forum as well. All sorts of stuff can end up there like politics, religion, science. then you can keep the main board purely gaming/computer related.

No not versus (although that'd be FUN) just general debates as in the religion thread and war thread.

no. I think those threads should be banned from HLP actually ( a gaming website if I'm not mistaken ).

That's why I said 'no' to the concept.  I am fully aware it's a gaming site.  Having a religion subforum is just silly and doesn't fit at all.

People are going to talk about it one way or another. Unless you want to punish those who do (which seems quite dictatorish) I think it "can" be done. Though its not very... well whatever... I frankly don't care :p

It could be worse. You could be attracted to spanking small wuddly lesbian poodles, like me.




I did not say that.
