This is an old debate, pal. And the mods have talked it over many times. Doesn't sound like a one-mod's decision to change that. There's a whole social forum, where everyone can chat all they want. Here, we talk about SW and only recently ONE social thread was allowed here for SW fans only to chit-chat.

It's not a rule etched in stone or anything, but I do feel it should be discussed with the SW mods (and particularly with Raz) before your Grill gets reopened.
