It offers respite from so-called trolls? Why are so many members who feign being concerned about wanting a private place for on topic discussion trolling the front room all day? They could easily post here or in vip. Yet choose to troll the front room instead.
It shows their hypocrisy and back handedness.
Fucking trolls. Nothing else.


An issue with the VIP forum is that a lot of the posts that go up here are meant to gather attention, which has been mentioned. The Front Room is the place where the click bait posts get the most reads.
Another one is the VIP forum is still too public for conversations that I know people have in mind because I've had them over private messages (or in person) with other TUSCLers. I don't really start threads much, but will put them in the VIP forum if I want a little less noise.
