Petition for Off-Topic Section

Post by Ensayia »

I think off topic posts are a healthy part of any forum, but instead of having them in the general section as of recently should we create an off topic subsection?

Please Vote.

Sounds like a good idea to me, possibly placed in the community section.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure General means "Generally Off-Topic".

General = off-topic in my mind.

IRC = super off-topic.

I was under the impression that General was about general LOVE talk and not general everything.

The majority have voted in favor of a separate section, however.

Apparently you were also under the impression this is a democracy.

I like the simplicity of the forums as they are right now. Besides, it's a programming community, people mainly come here for help/showcase their games/discuss technical stuff. Any trivial/off-topic stuff tends to go on in IRC really.
Do you recognise when the world won't stop for you? Or when the days don't care what you've got to do? When the weight's too tough to lift up, what do you? Don't let them choose for you, that's on you.
