I will put this very simply.
There needs to be two more forums added to the site:
(1) Thunderhead Speak - For your everyday gripes, complaints, and requests for nerfs.
(2) Perdition Shock - A dedicated, 18+ age requirement flame forum. Used as an output for flames, hates, etc.
Keepin' it real.
Zehly.
IDEA: New forum.

Thank you very much for your highly constructive opinion, ergo I'll keep this in mind when a moderator moves the post.
My suggestion in the OP is actually of a serious nature. If it's in the wrong forum, so be it. (I'm not the first to do this, and not the last).
If you have any other concerns with my post, feel free to flame me via PM. Thanks.

Hi 
Rant and flame forums have been suggested in the past, and while it might be a good idea, it's not the sort of thing that we wish to encourage in Guru. A dump for negativity might alleviate the gripes and flames in the main forums for a bit, but negativity has this uncanny ability to feed upon itself when confined in mass quantities. While I understand how annoying it is to read through numerous complaints in the main forums (Riverside, in particular), I would much rather stem and contain the mutterings to a reasonable hum than have a large cancerous growth in its own separate forum.
So, long explanation short -- as long as we can contain the negativity in the main forums down to a minimum, there should be no need for a rant/flame forum.
Thank you very much for your input on the site!
