Until recently, the OT stuff didn't appear to be a big deal. Maybe it was, and I just missed it.

As for me, I figure I can stir up plenty of hornets nests just staying on topic, but I also try as best I can to simply avoid the real controversial OT stuff, like threads based on politics, religion, etc.

In those areas, I believe what I believe, noone here will ever change that, and it has no relevance at all to arrangers or music in general. Still, it doesn't bother me, no matter which forum it's on. I just avoid it.
