Forum section suggestion

Nice idea but, it would never work. (It's funny to think of people actually fighting only in a designated sections.) First of all, product discussions happen in relevant forum sections. The dedicated vendor sections have threads that are mainly posted by members asking for help. Yes, a lot of those are complaints since most times when someone has a product problem, they are angry and their wording often comes out as complaining, even though many of those issues have resolutions and the same person ends up happy with the help they get.

All the general forums are the place to discuss software that fits into the product space the section is based on. So that is the same situation, relevant and helpful threads about say a particular anti-malware product get mixed in with the far less than helpful and useful threads.

Actually, complaints and fightiing often get mixed right into individual threads that contain very useful and helpful information. Frankly, every thread could contain good information and be a useful topic for others, it all depends upon the members that reply in it and what they post. Likewise, any thread can turn into a bickering mess based upon the members replying in it.

Since you never know what thread will have a gem (or many) of information when it starts, you'd never know if that thread was "a keeper" and be highly valuable to others later on. In order to end up with all the valuable threads separated from less useful posts, we'd be forever moving threads and worse, cutting all the less than useful posts right out of the threads that are the keepers. It'd be a nightmare and quite impractical to manage, I'm afraid.
