I think one of the reasons these boards were split off is because of the huge negative reaction from people who weren't part of those niche groups when the topics were discussed on general boards.

As you say, most people are interested in technology or fitness, which keeps the discussion of those topics (fairly) civil when discussed on the OT.


Politics, movies/TV, and "outdoors" are fairly large topics of discussion that don't cater to niche groups - yet, each of these topics has a dedicated place of discussion. Discussion on the Outdoors Board is fairly cordial relative to some of the discussions that take place on Political Talk.

So, niche topic or not, polarized dicussions or not...there certainly doesn't seem to be a common denominator among the current message boards.
