This is stimulated from my own mispercieved conclusion that a person spills out his/her personality into these forums, as I do myself.
I can understand the anime discussion thread, but the Misc. thread is a VERY SERIOUS thread that discusses major world events, debates, and so on. As such, since we are more connected to the real world there, we tend to take things people say there as a basis of that person's personality. Do you have any idea how many people from Misc. become flame-bait within a matter of hours? Misc. is not to be toyed with, as we are dealing with very personal issues and the like. The Men/Women Difference thread, Advice Thread, many world events are posted there, etc. Setting that thread up as a personal troll-base will definitely send you on that track.
Some people there don't play or even like Pokemon, but they joined here because it is a great place to discuss and debate. Establishing flame-worthy posts there is going to blacklist you among those members.
