It would have to be focused on general character models and not focus as much on the bottom. Of course that would be somewhat against the terms that the people of this thread would want, if your going to gun for the buttocks then prepare to deal with the jokes.



As long as you present yourself in a serious manner and back yourself with serious logic and discussion the derailment will have less impact, it only works when people take the bait and attack the derailers.

You need to be able to seperate yourself in your OP, get opinionated in your posts later on but the meat of a great OP is often distant from the subject offering more facts for discussion than opinion. The best discussions come when there is alot of disect in the OP on both sides of the argument. I've spearheaded multiple large posts and find sucsess in that type of thread I described, the other is to make sure your thread remains relevant and at the top of the forums for as long as possible, without having people "Bump for justice!"

The longer you can hold a healthy discussion without mud-slinging the better.
