My Lion King Forum

Hi everyone. A while ago we removed a little clause in the rules that disallowed confrontational discussion topics such as religion. We allowed such discussion, but only in the newly created "Smarty Pants Forum". After a few months of trying this out, we've decided it might be best to go back to how it was. Although members were warned that the discussions in this new forum may become offensive to some, the discussions still went a little far. They also spread from the Smarty Pants forum, which was not the original intention.

So, we're going back to how it was. We are a forum for The Lion King, and while we do offer off-topic areas, we only offer them in hopes that they will be a beneficial part of the forum. We are not responsible for encompassing any topic there ever was. There are simply much better places for discussions of this type that are much better suited to handle them.

TL;DR - No more discussion about confrontational topics that are bound to bring about arguing such as religion.

We will be keeping the Smarty Pants forum, but the purpose of it (as shown in the updated forum description) is for more intellectual discussions.

Thanks!

I actually like this idea. It was getting a little awkward, almost to the point where you could cut the tension with a knife. I could sense it from five topics away.

This will probably be beneficial in the end. We're here to make friends, not enemies.

Totally lame that we have to set the bar so low that we can't even try to have civilized discussions about controversial topics like mature non-five-year-olds. Sadly, seems like the track record speaks for itself, doesn't it?

People are very immature on here and get butthurt really fast. It's unfortunate that it had to come to this.

I think this is fine and it should have always been this way mainly because, as countless others before me have said, this is a Lion King forum, not a discussion forum for our personal views and opinions.

I know right? I don't recall the Beyond the Lion King section ever getting this heated. lol

Kopa debates say hi.

Do you know what I would give to participate in an actual Kopa debate (neé any TLK debate) on this forum?
