There should be a ban on imported content - so no clicking on links - original debate only - it would render some posters silent. I think we all know who you are referring to! I agree with this. Pasting large chunks of text from another website/blog should not be allowed. And links should only be posted as a reference source. Otherwise, it's not really debating.

Serious question... Should we have a News/Politics Talk board? That could stop the political chat drowning out General Talk and might get people chatting about sport etc instead?

But everything is political in a sense. Where would Barcelona FC going on strike in protest at Spanish oppression go.

Some initial thoughts... Politics/Current Affairs board would work. Maybe a new board means fresh "etiquette on debating" rules? Then rename Football Talk to Sport Talk as probably not enough topics to cover two forums. The revised General Talk would be anything that wouldn't involve politics such as celebrity, music, pop culture? Renamed Pop Culture Talk??
