New "Current World Events" section?
In light of the numerous discussions on the current world situation, what about a new threads section called Current World Events or somesuch which could be inserted just before Off-Topic and everything pertaining to current world events could be shifted there. I think it's now important enough to consider.

What if you split the OT into
1: Fun/Humor/Non-Debates (but no spam)
2: Debates-->Visit CGN!

I think the format during this crisis worked just fine.
I don't think a separte format would be good, the OT is where many of us gather.
A news format might not be viewed by all, and vital things might be missed.
All I can really say is, the OT and the people there helped me greatly when I needed them, and I'll not soon forget it.I believe Saddam because his position is backed up by logic and reason...David Floyd

don't divide the OT. That way leads to death. A big happy community is best.*

OT is already empty enough. This would cause the death of the two forums spawned from it.Comment

No splitting up the OT, I just find it would ruin the flow of the whole thing. Stay as it is!

I vote that you not split up the OT by adding a current events forum, but instead split it up by adding a history forum
