I thought it was kind of a neat idea.
It's a "no words
" forum (photo sharing). Somebody starts a thread (subject) and people post pics with no text other than exif. Just imagine: no arguments!

The only way it would work is if the forum name itself was something like "Pics with no words." No I am serious. I do not see such a forum created. Even if such a forum was created that is NO guarantee that what you describe won't happen. Yeah I know what your answer is "then moderators just clean up". Well I think moderators have plenty to do as it is. EDITING OF MY PHOTOS IS NOT ALLOWED

Well I think moderators have plenty to do as it is. Anyway to even get a chance of getting a forum like that you would need to start with what I suggested because as we have said many times. New forums are only created when the amount of threads justify the need for a new specialized forum. Agree with tommy here... so what's keeping you from trying to creating a Thread with no words? try it. it might become successful.

You gotta give forum members a little bit of credit but if you don't even want to give it a try then you will have a REALLY tough time convincing the mod/admin team that we need a dedicated forum for this.

I don't think we really need a dedicate forum for this, but I think several threads would be nice. Perhaps a particular theme to kick things off would be great. Kevin

I know more about gear than I know about photography
