I suggest Dr. Bob create a new board titled "Arguments concerning biological psychiatry." And he should leave it alone pretty much, being that its a debate board it would be obvious things could get kind of hot and heavy and stuff on there. It wouldnt be advertised as much as a "support" group but more of a place to give your opinion on things and discuss the biological/neurological aspects of the problems we face. Sometimes heated.

> Old SchoolI think this is a wonderful idea. But it shouldn't be limited to just that one topic. It should just be, as mouse suggested, a free for all board. You could give plenty of warnings so that only those who love rough and tumble play would read the board. And those of us who are uncomfortable with the unleashed spewing forth (vomiting) of anger and incivility could avoid it and so we wouldn't be hurt. Everyone would be happy!!
And it would be a nice control group for your study. What happens in an unmoderated forum as opposed to a moderated one. First hand viewing.
What a lovely solution, Old School.
Well, Dr. Bob?

This is all getting silly.. we are gonna end up with a million boards, just cos people get upset by odd posts...
I wish people could stop picking holes in Dr Bob, the boads, the other posters and get on with it.

This is a brilliant idea. Dinah I don't know how you can see 50 germane facets of a dilemma in a nanosecond but I salute you! Please get Dr. Bob to take this seriously now.
thank you,

LOL- But I don't think that would work well, everytime I'd see the name, it would be like looking at a board named after me :-)
Psycho-Babble Bitch & Moan & Groan perhaps...

> Old SchoolAhh, Old School. I knew you had it in you. And it's your idea.
I love the name too. And in case you were wondering, I never saw any incivility in your posting (well none towards any other posters). Sorry for the "vomit" crack. I have a big vomit phobia, but that certainly has nothing to do with you.
I hope you're feeling a wee bit better now?

I suggest that before the above suggestion is considered, a study be made of the following terms:
"debate"
"argument"
"opinion"
"heated"Zo

An alternative-
Why not set up your own board?
No reason not to, and then you can have any rules you like- or no rules at all. And post a message on the PB Boards with the url, so the people here know about it.
