Comics.
Does this site need a comic section?
(My friend Aaron noticed we didn't have one.)
Are comics classified as actual writing?
~On one hand, there is a writing involved. Sometimes a lot.
~On the other hand comics use more visual means of telling a story, trough images.
~One can argue that the images make no sense without writing to acompany them.
~Yet one can also say that a shopping list also can have a great deal of writing and still not be considered actually "writing".
The debate rages on.
(By the way, this is a very quick example of the debate with comics. I do realise there is a lot more to elaborate on, such as the "creative" aspect.)

We need more feedback on this.

The thing is we don't have a the membership for it. Too few people. I'm the only avid comic reader I know here.
It seems like now isn't a good time to add it in.

It seems like now isn't a good time to add it in. Having it could indeed attract some people.

Perhaps. Webcomicers and such. However we don't want to have sections we never use. Thats a bit redundant.

That's what I worry about sometimes when I add new sections.

I think that worry of redundancy is somthing similar to when I reorganise my room into sections.
