you can talk about anything that does not violate site rules. The three topics that seem to elicit the greatest amount of member to member hostilities, is Politics, Religion, and Sexual Orientation. That's why we discourage discussions/debates on these topics.
The original idea was to have this forum so that posts concerning subjects not related to Crappie/fishing would not clog up the Main Forum. These three subjects were the source of too much bickering & personal attacks .. so Ed deemed them as taboo.
Now, what you discuss with another member, or other members, by PM or on the FlashChat ... that's your decision. But, avoiding these three subjects on this forum is just being prudent. This is not an "Everything Else" forum. The site rules dictates these subjects not be discussed/debated. That's not my decison, nor that of the Moderator of this forum ... it's Ed's, site owner and Administrator. If/When the Moderator of this site checks thru the posts, and finds site rule violations, he's within his right to edit or delete as he sees fit.
