Pollution of the OTF

Why is it now the "cool" thing to do to pollute the Off-Topic Forum with utter nonsense?

I understand that this is the Forum with "No Rules," but that does not condone starting threads dealing with measuring the size of genetalia or whether or not somebody is a homosexual. Are the moderators that bored, or is there a contest I am unaware of that is dealing with the amount of threads you can have closed?

There is no need for this, people. The OTF is loaded with "crap" (as it has been affectionately deemed) in the first place; an abundace of copycat threads, tonnes of counting games, and so much other things.

Please stop with the cries for closed threads. We dont need it.

Thanks!

- Scottie.

P.S. My rant is now over, and I feel much better.

I know there is a lot of socking going on... but I suppose I was right in my assumption that these people are trying to be nice and keep the mods from growing bored.

There is a fine line between "funny stupid" and "senseless stupid." Tired Hiker is pretty much the line.

[SPOILER - highlight to read]: That means you are funny, Preston

I think people misunderstand how the OTF says it's the forum with no rules. They don't seem to realize that the KMC rules still apply.

Utter nonsense. New rule for KMC... you must have an IQ above 12 to start.

And about the socks, I have no idea who is who anymore. I thought everyone had left and then I realized, okay, so and so changed their username. I can't keep track of it folks. So please, if you know me, please send me a pm or post here as to who you used to be. Like you, Samurai Guy! I know I know you, I just can't remember who you were before. ?? erm

If it would stop the KMC penis measuring contests, then that would be a welcome change.

It won' t change. My similar rant months ago leaded to the OTF question which finally resulted into the Ignore option.

it's the OTF, you can post anything, if you think it's nonsense there is an option to ignore threads you can use

Yes, there is an ignore option, but what I meant was moreso "Why start a thread that you know is going to be closed.

The answer is painfully obvious when you think about it -- Because they're stupid.
