Nobody is suggesting that anything be done to the Lounge forum - clearly there are many people who enjoy the atmosphere of that forum.
However, with all due respect to the people who enjoy the Lounge, it is pretty much impossible to have a "serious" discussion there without it being "hijacked" by off-topic remarks, etc.
I firmly believe that there is a need for a "general discussion" forum which is not the Lounge, for those of us (and I believe there are quite a few of us) whose idea of a good time is not a "wild party" but a "peaceful chat".
