if we did open a off-topic forum I would guess that 2 out of every 5 posts would be closed due to flame wars starting up. at least with RC related stuff we have something in common (like empty pockets due to all the new toys we just bought 
)
While I suspect there would be more flame wars, it's only words. It would get my heart pumping now and then. I can get emotional about politics, moreso than our hobby. Though sometimes I can't understand how someone can stand behind a product like it's their religion or nationality.
