Jeez, this is pretty tough. I'll probably go with religion because there's a pretty small amount of people on here who are actually religious, and most of the debate is between fellow atheists. The American Political system would be next on the list.

But they're discussions that take place in religion threads, so they can't be considered off topic.

Urban Hat€monger ?

I meant off topic as non music related rather than inside individual threads.

Definitely the American Political system. On one side you have the Americans who are pretty much clueless, and on the other side you have the British people who are also clueless, but try to act like they know what they're talking about by just dissing our political system as much as possible.

I think the sexual experience thread is the most disappointingly boring thread of the entire forum

mr dave

not to mention creepy as fuck considering the age of active members on this site.

that's because nobody ever shares moments of actual intimacy, they're only there to either brag about their exploits or flirt with other members (which is pretty pathetic in itself).

I dunnae come on here to talk about politics and would be out of my depth if i did, but it feels like some of the more popular lounge threads detract from the, er, music banter. Like when you are eating your fist with boredom and the only posting is going on in a thread about Kant's balls or Obama's peace prize - if i want that i'll go and read the corresponding Guardian article and watch the usual schisms form in the comments boxes. Current affairs (especially US politics) is available 24/7 at the push of a button, it's all anybody talks about in my real life (if you are british 'current affairs' principally means the f*cking weather) and nobody has a f*cking clue about music... this is the void that MB fills on good days.
Having said that it strengthens the community to have a diverse set of topics available and i like the film thread, so i shouldnt complain really =P But there are some prominent long-time members whose music tastes i still have not worked out which says something. you have yer lounge lizards and yer music people and that's always been the way

For awhile it seemed like the sexual experience thread was spilling out into half the threads in the lounge, so I'll go with that. I very rarely bother with the current events forum so I'm sure my opinion would be different if I actually chose to deal with that mess.
