RE: Civil Commentary on the R'lyeh commentary on Civil Discussion Threads

Just checked it out. It's pretty mild. I guess everyone got it out in the other thread.
The main problem in the other thread is that it was based mostly on incorrect conjecture of our motives.
I posted for years at an atheist forum based in Denmark. I think it was atheist.net or atheism.net. I can't recall if it had actual rules about civility, but the threads were all civil. But, as time went by, fewer people wanted civil discussion, and that site died out.
I think this is the right approach - a civil section for those who want it, but an open section so the site maintains traffic.
