I've been to a lot of forums over the years, played EQ, WoW, Eve, NWN, CoD:MW, etc. One thing that some of them had, that I liked, was a Rants section. Where ranting/flaming (no fowl language, though) was allowed, and if you couldn't take the heat, don't post. To me, it allowed people to get out their frustrations at whatever was ticking them off. Or someone would post how they handled the same kind of problem, giving people other ways of dealing with problems, then shooting off multiple curse words, that most times don't help.

Had a problem with another player/user, and don't want to be polite about it? Use the Rants section.

Something happen at a store, other customers or store personnel tick you off? Use the Rants section.

Something happen at school (HS, College)? Use the Rants section.

Something happen at work, other employees, or the boss? Say it with me now...Use the Rants section!

Come across the worst driver on the road today? You got it...Use the Rants section!

This is just an idea, since I have seen a few 'rants' here, with really nowhere for them to be.

And having a Rants section, that AC2 ad thread would be a good example of something to rant about.

Have you seen the forums here?  Every thread already has someone ranting about something... lets not feed the trolls any more than necessary.

Unless it is about Goose copulation - that is free game.

Wow, I didn't realize Gamefly was so touchy like that. It sounds like you're better off just renting from Blockbuster.

Just a note, this topic was created to suggest and discuss the possibility of adding a rants section. 

If one was added, that's probably where you'd want to go off on how impatient you are and how gamefly doesn't send you the game you want when you want it.

Removed them for being outta place.

Let me know if we do get a rants section.
