I think it would be useful to have one.
Like with runescape related questions
they are short and sweet with little disscusion value.

If you open up a non-rs questions section then people can post questions about real life problems and such, like non rs disscusions but questions that have little disscusion .

I think it would be useful
What do you guys think?
thanks

Mmm, it sounds like a good idea. The Non-Runescape Discussion forum is filled with "What are your favorite..." threads or similar topics, which aren't really discussion.

It wouldn't be used enough, and Non-Runescape related questions fit perfectly into Non-Runescape discussion anyway.

Most posts in Non-RS Discussion contain either a question or some talking point, so there's really no need for a whole other forum.

As the others have said it wouldn't be that much of a benefit. Any questions fit perfectly into Non-RuneScape Discussion. However, I'm sure that the Administrators and users are greatful of you thinking of ways to improve the forums. :)

If Non Runescape Questions fit easily into Non Runescape Discussion, then why doesn't it work the same with Runescape related questions and discussions?

True dat.

I always thought Non-RS Discussion would be more talking about news, current affairs or basically things of discussion value such as the Election topics that popped up a few months ago, basically an area for debate. I suppose the Questions forum would be more like a questionnaire, finding others opinions, and of course the favourite such as 'What football team do you support?'

I'm kinda on the fence here.

Man, I thought we did have a forum for just non-rs discussion that wasn't serious. Oh wait we did. It became just a flame pit of spam. This forum might take the same direction. It just wouldn't work out I dont think.

Like communism, this idea is good in theory, but cannot be good in practice.

Well RS Questions is there for RS help, not for question formatted discussion topics. I think this confuses a lot of people visiting the forum for the first time, so it might add to it.
Unless the NonRS Questions forum would be for help only, it could just end up splitting the topics.
Like "What do you think of this article?" and "Discuss this article." They mean pretty much the same thing but would belong in seperate forums.

Even if there are some "I need advice" topics, I don't think it's enough to warrant a seperate forum.

It would just make the forum less active. Doesn't seem needed since most threads in non RS discussion are questions anyway.
