1. Don't know why anyone would flame you for that.
It's perfectly reasonable to point out that people should take their personal stuff to non-GD forums. Especially when GD is clogged with flamewars about actual issues and problems for once.

2. I rec'd it for you
And BlueIris, the reason she'll probably get flamed is that there are a few GDers who think they are too good for the Lounge (oh, the irony), and wouldn't deign to post in here no matter what personal laundry they want to air.

12. Rightly so. In many cases, the Lounge is about dates
and women with big breasts, and what's for dinner and, of course, cats and dogs.

Nothing wrong with this, but the GD is not only about politics but about general topics. Though I admit that Michael Jackson and that Miss California are too much.

14. It's not necessarily the celebrity gossip threads
It's people posting threads SEEKING PERSONAL ADVICE or venting about facets of their lives not even remotely political. Not all Lounge threads are cats/dogs/poop/pee. That is the kind of condescension I was referring to in my post above - that somehow GD is inherently superior to the Lounge, when in fact, GD is so full of its own shit, I'd say the two forums break even.
