Well, an idea that I brought up to the denmother has been given a tentative go ahead.
Far to often, a topic will come up that we have all seen before. The same arguments get rehashed, and the same points are brought up. The same words are used, and the same thing happens. Pointless bickering and borderline flames.
To put some kind of end to this, or to reduce the problem slightly, the Denmom will be putting together a "Dead Horse List" , as I call it. Topics that have been literally done to death. These topics will be locked. <grin>
{Note I have given instructions about how to deal with dead horse topics as thye pop up, and I wanted to put them here in this topic to help understand how we are handling it.
#1 If there is a Dead Horse Topic, that pops up in Primal screams or OOC, Point to the Dead Horse FAQ, warn that if this thread gets out of hand like most other threads on this topic have, it will be closed, and let it go.
#2 It there is a Dead Horse Topic that pops up in any other forum, Point them to the Dead Horse FAQ, Tell them to go look in the Primal screams for a topic on that Dead Horse, Go post in that topic if they absolutly have to talk about that Dead Horse, and close the post. If no Topic about your Dead Horse exisists in Primal screams, create one with the understanding that it has to stay in hand.

The denmom wants people to help make the list.
If I may, I would like to start off:
Cultural Discrepencies (Not fair we dont have it, theirs is better, etc...)
Which tradeskill is hardest? (Tailoring Vs Smithing is the most common)
Which race/class is the best for farming?
UNDERCUTTING. (We all hate or love this, but it always ends up in the same argument)
And I am sure there are more. Discuss, if you wish.
