I voted yes, but do it on a seperate board, on a seperate forum, in a seperate country.

I would really rather come here and read and write about fishing and boats.
I do like the off topics area, and like it being a blend of everything. If that included politics sometimes, well okay.

Where do we draw the line? A board, for computers and software, one for weather, one for sports, one for plumbing, one for taxes, one for the economy, one for foreign affairs..... I think most of fishin.com ought to be boats and fishing and rods, and reels and trolling motors. So do each of those get a seperate board too? A board for Bass, one for Bluegills, one for cats, one for Stripers, one for Crappie, and a seperate board for catching NOTHING.

Really, make it toooooo simple:
Fishing only.
Gear talk only.
Boat talk only.
Buy and sell boat or fishing stuff only.
And OFF-TOPICS.....anything else you want to talkabout.

And to be even less committed and consing, I agree everyone of us can elect to not see whatever we decide to NOT click on.

I know I know.....I ought to do that more often myself.....but I'M ADDICTED.
