I only agree on blocking pairing threads, which I know has already been decided on, since you yourself have deleted some of those threads. I also will concede that speculatory discussions (of the nature "I think X is from Y clan") shouldn't be allowed.

I do not agree with banning question threads or rants. While rants might not be very useful, as long as people are actually going to make the effort to keep watch over such threads, there's no harm in them. I like to rant to myself about the manga going in a bad place and if I wanted to, I could just as easily make a thread saying about the direction the manga is going.

There's a difference between total banning of a discussion and careful moderation. I personally think that if more sysops were involved in moderating this forum, things would not be so much of a problem: as it stands, the majority of the sysops don't moderate it and seem to prefer making long winded posts of complaints about how the forums should be run, despite most of them not actually doing anything much in them (with the exception of TTF who does seem to genuinely want to make the forums meaningful)
