Manlobbi, earlier in this thread you wrote that you thought a board devoted to politics was a good idea and you were seeking a name for it. Is that still in the works?

I wouldn't suggest banning politics here, but for creating a separate political board there could be 2 distinct, and almost mutually exclusive, functions:

Either (1) provide a home for emotional political posts, which follow closely the media narrative trends - the goal being to keep other boards more focussed as the unwanted traffic could gravitate elsewhere (acting somewhat as a swimming pool cleaner left on all day and night); or (2) provide a (reasonably) intelligent political board that inquires about serious subjects that are almost invariably absent from every single newspaper and television programme.

The title of such a board depends whether the direction should be 1 or 2. Or, I suppose, there could be two political boards with completely different names, aimed at these polar opposites to provide both functions.
