Lounge threads need purpose now?

[Snappy]

Although I put my two cents worth in on the controversial thread I don't think those discussions are best suited for this type of website. There are chat rooms and plenty of other places to go over those issues. I for one don't shy away from discussing whatever topic topic comes up if I feel I can actually give some input, however as stated I agree that topics on this website should be related to the hobby or at least relevent in some way.
