The off-topic subforum, as I already mentioned countless times, is meant for "light-hearted" discussions, apparently, and people treat it as such(big surprise there, ain't it).I would like to be part of something more accurate than that, but whatever, I guess - if you seriously end up thinking that this is not a problem after you discuss it, then fine.(July 9, 2015 at 3:27 pm)excitedpenguin Wrote: Just make a Diverse Topics kind of forum and it's all resolved.
We have a "diverse topics" kind of forum. You can literally discuss any topic there you want (provided the content doesn't break forum rules).
As far as creating other subforums goes, we're happy to do so if there's sufficient demand demonstrated. Generally speaking, discussion about non-fiction books fits in one of the other topical categories (Science, Philosophy, ... or even Off Topic).
