Sorry..newbie here..whats a quarantine room? One of my posts or more was moved.
The Quarantine Room is a hidden forum where folks are allowed a little more freedom of expression. It's not a "free for all" place to brawl, but the Rules of the site are relaxed a bit and interpreted a bit more loosely. When members start bickering with each other or behaving in ways that may make the site look less friendly and welcoming to newcomers, we split off that discussion and put it in the QT Room. This way....they can continue to talk/argue/bicker if they want...and it doesn't junk up the public forums.
In addition to that, some folks have used the QT forum to spark occasional hot-topic discussions that would not have previously been tolerated on the site at all. (Religion, politics, etc) These are allowed to remain so long as they stay relatively civil.
Anyone who wishes it may have access to QT...but must ask an admin with a PM so we know you want in there. Not everyone does and we won't force it on anyone.
Hope that answers your (and other "newbies") questions about it!
