Can we have an unmoderated part of the forum ?

I have noticed that many forums have an unmoderated section, in which players are allowed to curse , flame, swear, and insult all they want. Its simply an unsupervised section. This tends to decrease the amount of negative posts and comments on the general forums, as trolls and flamers vent their thoughts and interact with their kind in a small controlled environment.
Of course there would be a warning saying enter at your own discretion etc ....

well just a thought :)

Oh nono, i enjoy the flamewars on the forums, its quite entertaining.
But now flamewars in an uncontrolled environment, brilliant :)
maybe they will realise after many curse-rich posts and arguements, that it solves nothing, and they might, just might reform and post in a civil manner.

I see your reasoning, yet you are dealing with the human psyche in a benign environment behind a wall of anonymity. People are people.. you have one opinion and one mode of expression, others do also. I personally am glad we all are not mindless robots all fitting the same mold, therefore I welcome all opinions and allow everyone the same opportunity whether to express frustration, encourage in a positive manner or flame others uncontrollably.
