Have a relationship help forum? To help out our fellow bombers?

I don't know if it will work out to well.

To be honest. No. I think the internet is a pretty bad place to ask for relationship help.

It would help keep threads like that out of the way, having a separate forum for them would probably be a waste as they're pretty rare and no one takes them seriously.

Just google ''relationship forums'' and you'll have plenty to choose from.

Maybe a dedicated topic. But not a forum. This is Giantbomb.com. It's a website. About video games.

No. We don't need relationship stuff on a website about video games. That and have you seen this site give out relationship advice before? It doesn't go very well.

No, this is a video game site, we really shouldn't be putting any emphasis on relationship help, it's neither what we're primarily here to discuss nor something we are as a whole necessarily experts on.

It's a videogame website.  About videogames.

I want to pick yes, but the extra bit about it being awesome is not true. I just think it gets posted enough that it should get it's own place to keep offtopic from getting bombarded with threads about it.

I think its kinda funny that people say its a video game website where the most commented on posts thend to be either about religion or that one i saw a while back about pluto. I think 'this is a video game site' isn't vaild if there is a lot of random stuff in off topic.

How can somebody who doesn't know you or your situation give you accurate advice? There are plenty of internet psychiatrists, but that doesn't mean they know what you should do.

About this it's called wisdom of the crowd. "

Just write a letter to Rebel.fm or something.

No, this is not a good site to find relationship advice, as reading any of the 'help me with x relationship/sex issue' threads should tell you that.

Or maybe they could just stop asking for relationship help on a videogame site...

We already have a forum for that. It's called "Off-Topic".

There's a concept page for "Love".
 
That's good enough for me!

Gaming sites are one of the worst possible places for relationship advice: As a result this idea has my full support.

Usually the people asking for relationship advice shouldn't be in a relationship in the first place. :P

All the relationship topics that pop up on here always go bad, so why would you want a entire forum of them?

Can the forum be locked off from the main list so I don't have to see the topics? 
 
That would improve my Giantbomb experience.

" Usually the people asking for relationship advice shouldn't be in a relationship in the first place. :P "

I would vote yes, but it doesn't sound awesome...
 
Edit: Actually no. It would seem out of place, next to Alan Wake and Modern Warfare 2. Just stick to the off topic section.

LOL honestly? So people who ask for driving advice if it's their first time driving or they just started driving a manual shouldn't be driving at all? Then we would all be doomed sir. Your comment is flawed.. "
