    Two forums, both visible; "PG" forum free to all. "R-Rated forum "pay-to-play".

    The funny thing about that - quite a few who participate in the Tech sections over yonder (specifically, the Boat Anchors area) have expressed displeasure regarding the quantity and quality of infighting in their General Subjects forums, and won't participate in those discussions. Conversely, I see very few of the more bellicose of the lot ever showing up on the Tech side of da hizzle.

    Which suits me just fine.

    I would pay to play over here, somebody got to support the free speech portion

    .

    ETA: There's something *wrong* here, *we* are sitting here on an open forum discussing whether or not to open a new forum that will be invisible to guest and, 50% of the people who voted thought that would be a good idea!

    That doesn't seem very hospitable and inviting to me.

    BTW: " * " means the way my brain sees it.
