Move anything even remotely religion-based to the Lobby, including prayer requests, what bass for gospel, and the P&W bassist thread. Participants could cite scripture or praise the Lord (as they already do), and the atheist/agnostic/secular humanist crowd would not feel discriminated against. Everyone would be afforded more latitude; the usual rules of respect continue to apply. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: Leeds, UK | | | I am strongly against closing OT to non-supporting members. It's that kind of elitism and exclusivity that I dislike about so much of the rest of the Internet. And I disagree with encouraging people to support the site by withholding content. I'm not a supporting member because I wanted the lobby and the avatar and the custom user title and all of that bonus stuff. I paid up because I wanted to give something back to TB after everything that I got out of it for the 3 years that I was here before then.
If you think that something needs doing with the lobby, either lift the restrictions on subjects of discussion and recruit a couple of new mods to stamp out the flames when things go too far/get too personal, or just close it and forget that it ever existed. I'm in favour of the first option - those who aren't interested in politics/morality/religion/whatever can either avoid the specific threads or avoid the lobby altogether.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Feb 2009 Location: Tampa, Florida, US | | | I pay my avatar allowance supporting membership fee so people can see that I'm completely serious with everything I say. And nothing does that like a V-beard and a potential serial killer looking at you anytime you feel like posting something in response to me.

IIRC the reason that the Lobby and OT posts don't count towards the post count is because the Admins felt that they wern't consistent with what the forum was about. | +1 |

Us supporting members already seem douchey enough.
