Then couldn't they simply not go in that section if they don't want to be bothered with other people's problems? o_o
It's true that they can choose not to go in the section, but they'll still see it, and they can potentially see the threads inside it wether they want to or not. Anyway, it was just a suggestion i thought worth mentioning. Trolls can be moderated and booted out of the section. They're not really a problem.
That was the main worry about the debate section: things getting out of hand and someone getting hurt. But has anyone ever been banned from the debate section? No. Why? Because everyone knows that it's being heavily moderated and it's a place to be serious. If similar rules are applied to this new section, then it shouldn't be a problem. They still have the option to post it privately, so only the CP can see it if the problem is that delicate.
I'll be happy to help in that section I've had my fair share of problems (kinda still do) about bullying and assbergers so im pretty sure I've got some good ideas to help others. So I'm in.
I was thinking, that perhaps we could have a board where people can both vent out about their problems and rave about how right everything is? Just a thought that entered my head.
Looks like the general consensus supports this. I will see to adding a public section by the end of this week.
I just noticed the public forum is visible to guests. Shouldn't the public forum at least be invisible to them? People who post there are only expecting help from the community, not share their personal issues for everyone to read. Just a thought.
