Segregation leads to mistrust and misconceptions. If all you read is stuff that totally agrees with you, what's the point? That's the reason I don't go to the other forums anymore. You say "AKs rule!" and all the drones repeat after you "AKs rule!" Sort of an exercise in mental masturbation. You leave the forum saying "Everybody is just like me!" When you actually meet someone who prefers bolt action rifles, you feel singled out and start spouting gibberish about the superiority of this ammo or that bayonet. I would rather have an open forum where there is free communication about ideas and issues. We can talk about things, we can share ideas, and when we sign off we don't have to feel like we were attacked just for liking plastic grip panels over African Zebrawood or some such nonsense.
