Regardless, I hardly see why everyone one else cares so damn much.

I've been having fun over at C:A. No, its not tfp. Yes, the membership is highly overlapped. I thought about the point that C:A could essentially be called Tilted Trampoline 2, but the fact is that in order for it to function, it has to be separate. I think that will become more interesting as time passes. But its like saying that you'll have the same experience if you go to an upscale nightclub, or a hole in the wall. They might have the same beer on tap, but the experience will be totally different. You can go with the same people, but you'll have completely different conversations. And if you take too much of it too seriously, you'll get in some sort of stupid argument before the night is over.

I am concerned about the possibility / probability of issues leaking back from C:A to tfp, but in the long run I think that's for the best. If the only thing making people think they like each other is because they are limited by some veneer of civility here, I would think all parties interested would want to know that. Personally, I've never found tfp to be limiting at all, and I've said some pretty crude shit here. I think its all in the delivery, but nonetheless...

I agree with spectre: stop taking all this so seriously.
