yeah, you can create topics there, but these topics will stand out from the rest, just like in WoW. There, people mainly talk about their **favorite** activities, games, food, etc. P.S. although you can create topics in philosophy, not all of these topics may be related to philosophy. And another drawback is that posts from this section are not displayed in "new messages," which reduces the visibility of the topics and its "popularity," because some people only view "new messages" or the latest ones, and rarely visit these obscure sections.
