On 'other sites'

I've been asked to remind people about discussion of 'other sites.'I've been told there are threads about where people are posting negetive opinions about other online communities. Please, please be aware that inter site wars are really not something we wish to start. Especially when one of the sites in question is the official Star Trek site. Watch out for this in the Trek Forums especially. Please, please, keep an eye out for these comments and sit on them before something nasty breaks out. If they're talking about a web site, move it to the web sites forum, where we hope that it will dies a quick death. Remind people that discussion of an online community should take place in one area and one area only - on the place they're talking about. These things should be kept seperate. Cheers guys.

Maybe this is a stupid question, but do we want to be admitting that everything we send to the Websites Forum dies a quick death?

I'm not. I'm admitting it to you mods and rather foolishly hoping you'll show discretion.

So we have a place to send threads like this so they die a quick death and get out of the main high traffic forums.If Wordin does it anywhere other than his sig, we generally move it to web sites.

So the "Websites Forum" is just a dumping ground for the threads we don't want to deal with? You're kidding right? Why would we have a forum just for a dumping ground. I originally thought that was what MISC was for, but I've been assured by its participants that there is actually a point behind the forum and I'll take their word for it. So what other forums are just dumping grounds, Trek Lit, Trek Tech, Fan Fic? I'm curious.
