Mike,

i respect this answer and i respect your authority, (cartman style!)
and i always thought that what you described above was in fact the
case, so that puts that issue to rest...  HOWEVER...

since there is a vocal minority who are also, i assume, valued members
of the community, why not incorporate my suggestion?  to ask another
way, why won't slim do it if in fact you won't?

the main thing i am asking for is for a new "anything goes" forum to be
created that ostensibly would be for any NON-slim topic, (and of course
it should be civil and also not promote the competition).  the new sub
forum could be easily ignored by others.

it isn't to be created for just the one political thread and 4
complaining threads, but rather as a place where people can talk
without fear of being too off topic or annoying slim devotees.  i know
in the past i simply self censored things that didn't fall under
"general discussion about slim" b/c altho that isn't how slim saw it, i
knew a lot of the old timers saw it that way, and frankly i didn't want
to deal with it.

but as slim grows, this need will probably just get moe pronounced, so
why not nip it in the bud now and appease all sides?

thx.
