I'm perfectly okay with the idea of a split. It's good to enjoy OMNI without the political and religious extremists hijacking the entire board.

That being said, it can sometimes feel like wandering into the lion's den when going into OMNI P/R. There's something about the 'feel' of the board which allows a much lower standard of decency and decorum in posts.

To be blunt about it, many posters in the OMNI P/R forum (or maybe just the most vocal/prominent ones) are just nastier than would be allowed in other forums. And I, for one, think that's rather sad.
