Never thought of it like that.

I've thought of it usually as approximately 25 percent for and against issues raised, with 50% sitting on the fence.

What is that subculture, EG?

Can we do the same for anything written by Safro. Just put his name at the start of the title.

The articles on their website are literally split into two columns - 'From the experts' and 'The Roar of the crowd', and are even colour-coded orange and blue respectively.

Agree - A ban on Roar articles as new threads unless they're "Pro" i.e. real journalist.

KA please approve thx.

Is it necessary?!

They're shit and all, but are we really that precious about it?

Just a little 'Roar:' at the start is fine. Those who want to read it can, and the precious ones can remain precious?

Its not so much roar articles, its the fact that they are given threads. They are just rants. It would also be very easy to find a thread that already exists and post it there eg. Brisbane expansion , should go in expansion thread.
