"Why? What are they afraid of?"
What do you think they're afraid of? (Don't worry about your "last post" comment.)
I don't agree with the policy personally, but the reason isn't so much intolerance as it is keeping flame wars to a minimum. This is why I've been advocating a "flame" forum board over the past five years. I'd rather see such discussion moved to another board than deleted altogether.
WTF do you think this place is?
LOL
Everything matters, don't forget to tweak your placebos!
"WTF do you think this place is?"
They don't move flame threads from other boards here. It's just that flame threads started on this board are tolerated more than elsewhere.

I think that was fine, given the rules on Cable. (Once again, I don't agree with the rules, but they are the rules.)
In regard to my suggested "flame" forum, only the "flame" activity should be moved to the proposed board, not the entire thread.
The reason for this is to avoid personal exchanges from diverting the attention and wasting the time for those who are mainly interested in the discussion of the actual subject matter. I think a "flame" board was never implemented because "drawing the line" in regard to what constitutes a "flame" in itself could put heat on the moderators. Because such judgment is very subjective.
Your dumb idea would lead to greater stupidty than we already witness and turn the moderators into babysitters ... don't hold your breath.

"Your dumb idea would lead to greater stupidty than we already witness and turn the moderators into babysitters ... don't hold your breath."
In the five years I've advocated such a board, you've been the very first person I've seen to explicitly state it's a bad idea.....
I also disagree about the "babysitters"..... Once the thread is moved to a "flame" board, unless such clashes elevate to personal threats, the moderators don't have to really do much of anything..... It would be just like Outside Asylum, in this regard.
and you need someone to explicitly tell you the idea is dumb!
Jesus that sort of speaks for itself.
