I think this is a place where any topic related to IAAP, the Rotten Apple, and other videos could be tossed around without cluttering up the main Rotten Apple thread topic. I don't have anything to add right now, but I wonder if it might help in the long run.

you that's why we have a Rotten Apple sub-forum you can always make a new topic there with new informations I know, but generally speaking, people aren't going to start new topics based on something that appeared in a YT video. Take the Nefertiti image that I posted, it has generated annoyance in the Rotten Apple thread, yet there was a loose link between the image and something that was in the RA series. Is it worth its own topic thread, or would it fit in the Rotten Apple 2 topic? I wouldn't think of starting a new topic about the Nefertiti image, but the manner in which people discuss elements that are found in the RA series leads the discussion into hard to follow branches. It leads to abstract links or relations. Think of all the images that could be discussed, is it better to have one thread separate from another to try to lessen the feeling of annoyance that some people have expressed? Should people refrain from posting an image like Nefertiti with the concern that they'll be reprimanded?

Hello! Is this the way-out there, magical mystery tour, anything goes, knock yourself out wild theory thread? Cool! If not, can we pls open one, perhaps with password only access, in order to not generate annoyance? Wonderful! You mean in the members only forum? I suppose it's a possibility, but this isn't intended so much to be a wild, no-holds barred theor-o-thon where we're posing Don Knotts scenarios... The "problem" with discussing anything related to the Rotten Apple series is that there is just so much there to (potentially) discuss and that is where people begin to express annoyance, which in a way is kind of ironic since the series itself is much similar to the discussions. The other forum can begin to read as a jumble as different tangents are explored. I'm all for exploring abstract ideas and themes that might be loosely linked to the RA series, but others are not. That is what I want to separate from the other thread so we can see if things can settle down.
