I like bullshit and drama as much as the guy next to me, but I’d like to have a **choice** on the matter of when I want to read information relevant to the topic I clicked on to read and when I actually want to read some drama.

Having the threads not split, eliminates that choice.

It may be what it is now, but trust me that is not my original intent when I was pouring days of my time and spending money on the website.

Unfortunately that is the association we have, and I’m not proud of it.

There is no reason we can’t have the “fun” banter in a few dedicated threads and have the rest be funny by staying on topic and actually entertaining to read.

The active posters may be in on the joke, but there are a lot more people that lurk the site other then post, but trust me they let their voice be heard when they want to.
