May I respectfully ask that the management of this board consider a "RESEARCH" forum?
It seems obvious that some of the members of the forum are interested in engaging in serious, research-based discussions that have a tendency to annoy other members because of the length and breadth of the posts.
If we had a RESEARCH forum, security topics could be explored in depth by those who wish to do so, with the understanding BY ALL that such discussions would be limited to that forum, and that the more "informal conversations" among members would take place in other forums. Members who are not interested in (or who do not at a particular moment have time for) "deep explorations" would easily avoid running into these discussions simply by avoiding the RESEARCH forum and the members who try to discuss things in depth would not be met with comments like "Hey! Can't you say it in 3 words or less?", to which the only answer is "No, I can't discuss this topic in 3 words or less"...with the result that both the poster and the reader are simply pissed off and nothing constructive results.
