I think it's the context of the forum. People are talking outside their understanding, outside their interests, and outside their freaking minds sometimes. But in most cases, when a "hot" topic comes up, it gets frowned on, flamed and as I stated before... eventually locked. And most try to drag it back to the center here which is fantasy related. That's what is "supposed" to happen here. On other non-tk forums, you can have a God-centered discussion and bring up abortion and gay marriage [pro or con]. In here, for example, you're not allowed to be against gay marriage or you'll get flamed forever. And if you think I'm wrong, try arguing that point. Gay or not, married or not, it has nothing to do with me and I wish all of our gay friends here the fullest lives possible with whomever they choose. I'm not stating my position on it as it has nothing to do with me. But there's little or no room in the TT for disagreeing with anyone on anything short of rape and pedophiles.
If I had to bet my wife's life on it, I'd say the bigger part of the forum is made up of people under the age of 22-23. This is a fantasy-based forum and as long as the topics stick to that, you'll notice things are rosie. But elections or not, you can find the "recent" types of serious debates in other forums pretty much any time and people not centered on fetish content are much more informed and intrigued by those discussions. That's not to discount the handful of astute replies I've noticed or been part of here the past couple weeks. I'd like to meet several of you outside this forum and share some thoughts. But here at TT, it seems best to keep it light and airy. Besides, I would think most come here for fun or enjoyment, not to get riled up.
