Lol, I think it's a good idea because that way people don't have to go through a bunch of threads dealing with a topic they have no interest in, the media forum is mostly for movie/tv related stuff so I think a video game forum would be nice, at least that way people won't complain about me making nothing but video game threads.

A lot of my threads on the topic have a lot of posts so it's certainly a topic a lot of people are interested in, enough so that I think it might be worthy of it's own section.

I really like discussing as long as it's a proper subject and not just bickering because someone worded themselves poorly and couldn't accurately describe the thought that was in their head at the time - or something similar. As long as the discussion moves forward, I tend to enjoy it. What I don't like about forums is whenever you have a discussion in a thread that is moving forward, new people enter it who only replies to the op without reading any of the following posts. If you wanna discuss with these people, you end up going back to the start over and over and over again.

The worst thread so far (imo) was the drugs thread. You could discuss drug politics with people who seemed like they got really mad for real if you posted anything speculative against the drugs they love (esp. that one guy who lived in that thread) and every discussion was spiced with people bragging about how much dope they'd smoked or popped every now and then.

I can't really bare a lot of the current events threads/ political threads/ religion threads mostly because people get heated and instead of being a civilised debate it's pretty much a bunch of opinionated people not listening to anyone else's points of views and not really contributing in any valuable way...

I picked 'The American Political System' because specifically that is the most tedious for me, partly because of the fact that I don't live in America.

The sex and drugs threads I don't really think are that tedious, they're a bit of fun and sometimes somewhat informative. Same with the video games, don't think that area of discussion is tedious either...

Yup, that's the guy. If you wrote something like being really high when driving makes you more likely to have an accident, he would take it as a personal insult.

I agree a bit with the american political system arguments. I usually stay out of those since I'm not an american. I chose religion in this poll, though. There's no reasoning with people over religion so discussing it is often futile and almost guaranteed to make someone upset.
