I know its kinda n00bish, but after Keaz's request for a rant forum on TGC, I thought it may be a good idea; and I built a forum designed especially for ranting.

http://apollo_rant.myfreeforum.org/

Its only me, the good 'ol admin at the moment, but if you would like to rant about anything, just visit this site to get anger off of your chest.

Why make this forum? Well, a little birdie called common sense, tells me that TGC may not make a rant board on the apollo forums....

Comments?

Trying so hard to what?

I made it in about ten minutes, and posted 2 little threads to try and give people a reason to register.

Its just an experiment to see if this kinda thing would be viable or not

Please don't turn this into an evil flame-war

What did you think I was trying to do, by posing as Terminator and typing up that thread? I was trying to help your forums, and you rejected me! I hope you're happy mister!

I hope you have a good disclaimer

Inviting people to join forums inciting anti-political and anti-religious discussion could get you into a lot of trouble, especially if the new anti-hate laws get passed.

nah, that wasn't really the point. It would be nice if it became popular; but unlikely. I just wanted to test out the idea of a ranting forum

Yeah, I just realised that the religion & politics stuff was kinda bad-tatse, so I erased those boards.

As for the forum itself; the experiment has ended. I have decided that the obviously negative reaction by the community would not keep it afloat. So the forum has been deactivated for now.

Making that thing has got to be the biggest mistake I have ever made. So I apologise for my stupidity Please don't rub it in....
