C'mon guys, there's no reason for a daughterboard. If you can't help but read and reply to topics in EE that you know will lead to "trouble", what says you can't help but do the same in a daughter board? I think it would be better to hand out 48-hour suspensions or warnings if things turn ugly. We're all here for the same reason, we just need to keep that in mind.
Threads on the internet are like conversations in a restaurant. You can choose to partake, or you can choose to walk by.
Exercise self control and self responsibility guys. [Said the black pot to the kettle. ;)]

Apart from my earlier comments, I don't feel the admins who volunteer to "police" these newgroups should have their time monopolised in maintaining extra child boards of existing newgroups. Not for something as trivial and non-arcade related such as the EE forum anyway...

2 things
First my main push for the separation is the fact that EE often includes arcade and video game related topics. If you were right about this then I would have just left it some time ago.
second - Saint and the other mods can take care of themselves. This is not a labor issue. Do you know the system that each mod uses to check things out? I don't. Saint is the one who started the poll, I think he can handle his side. Also are you sure this wouldn't just make it easier to moderate?
Can you really not see that more people would go back to the EE forum and you can still have your debates? Where's the harm? Everything you want to express would still be posted with the same people. Those that don't want politics mixed with arcades don't have to have it.
We have expressed why it would help our experience on this board. You have been critical but have not explained how it will harm your experience on this board.
