But, why not create a flame forum specifically for this?

Many people believe it exists. They call it the OT.

It's a shame really, there are lots of points for discussion right now, and many posters with well thought out positions, and the disposition to argue their case without resorting to personal insults.
However the mods have a hard task......and once a thread starts to go downhill (which it will if just one or 2 posters push it) the discussion gets foreshortened.

You see? This is exactly why I only sparingly post in the OT. You post something and you're restricted.
--Flame forum is really a good idea though. Not kidding.

I've noticed the OT becoming less strict. I haven't had a worthless thread locked/deleted in days!
It seems that usually when the flame restrictions appear to tighten there is a loosening in the spam restrictions. They kinda keep each other in check.

When it comes to drunk threads... here are the general rules of thumb I follow...
First... as long as the drunken poster limits his posting to just that thread, and doesn't start spamming/disrupting other threads, I leave the thread open and take no action against the poster. If the person goes crazy in other threads, in most cases, I just restrict the poster until he has had a chance to sleep it off... unless his actions deserve a longer restriction.
Next... If the thread goes overboard, I delete it or close it with a warning...
Last... When it looks like the drunken poster has passed out or has stopped posting, I close the thread.
Obviously, this all assumes I see the thread
