Lone, the same could be said for any new section. That's what admins are for, to see through that.

The only sections I've ever seen moderated are when things get stupidly out of hand in not-off-topic. Unless you plan to have people actively watch for shitlery, I don't think it will be any different. This board is a wasteland as is.

Putting a serious tag would be the same as it being moderated. I don't see your point at all.

The point is that all threads would be subject to people calling other people out on violation of the [Serious] tag, making complaining in-thread a possibility as well as potential abuse of the tag being used liberally on 90% of threads.

And again, let me make this clear, being an admin is not just blindly following a set of rules, if this was so then computers could do it for us. Admins have to think and make judgment calls.

I'm curious as to why you all dismiss this idea so fast, when you were all open to a separate section. This is the exact same, just without having to make the forum's frontpage larger.

There's no doubt that it's going to get abused, just like Lyser abuses the off-topic section as of now. Now it just gives him a call against my reverse shitposting.

Well, I think it's a good idea. I'm writing up an announcement.
