I disagree.
It's a place for people to vent a bit.
People here are adults and should be able to handle it without it having any effect on them.
I don't see any value of them on the official forums. Go vent somewhere else. It isn't constructive, and adds nothing to enhancing the game experience.

Come on, really?
If you can't handle the flame section just skip reading it.
When you post a response there you only fuel the flames, if you can't handle what is being written
and take it personal like some kind of insult-sponge you need to look around and realize everything
is not pink and fluffy.
What we don't need is someone to 'protect' others from the evil flamers (none mentioned, none forgotten).

Why flame in the first place?

Why not just get your point across through civil ways of communication?

I have posted a link before to the Hyde Park in London. Guess you don't like following links, so I won't bother.

I did click your link, to a wiki on Hyde Park. I just did not understand what you meant by it so I moved on. If I misunderstood the point of the link, my bad. And your bad for not explaining better what you meant!:)

Hyde Park's Speakers' Corner has acquired an international reputation for demonstrations and other protests due to its tolerance of free speech.
