Thats the nature of all Message Boards.  We even derail threads ourselves here.  If it becomes a constant problem with one individual constantly derailing threads then thats another thing altogether and should be addressed.  But if somone never leaves the Lobby forum thats fine, because odds are that they will tell a freind or two about thsi gr4eat Web site for GMs and they might visit the other areas, but if we bump the person then he's going to tell his friends and then we may end up with no one. We could always sponser a gaming podcast, or even host our own.  That way we could get our voices out there and build an audience quite quickly.  So long as our content is good and our quality is high.  Any podcasts are recorded through the use of Skype or Vitrilo and then edited together to sound better later on.  And maybe even do some "live shows" at a few gaming cons around North America.A simple way of deciding what is appropriate language is to follow the FCC 7 words that are never to be aired.  If you don't know what 7 words I'm talking about check the Wiki entry <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_dirty_words" target="_blank">here</a>.I think this should go without saying but, In Game politics I think should be allowable.  Discussing the different political factions of a Campaign world for instance can help people to either better understand that setting or maybe even help someone to flesh out their own homebrew world.Perhaps a Private forum for council members only with a sister forum where we post a log of the Council forum discussions and let the members reply and vote on any major items that come up.</blockquote>
