The OTF Question!

I think there's one way we can make the crap threads tolerable. 😱 change the otf to the "random crap" forum. 😱 😱 😛

Threads in the Off-Topic Forum are going off-topic? What is the world coming to?

I meant "thread." I've never seen a thread closed because the moderator thought it was crap. Does it happen?

no, that's not a reason to close it at the least!
lots of reports to the mods about threads here got the reply "it's the otf, what did you expect?"... I think that says enough

Close all the crap threads. Keep it highly moderated - just like any of the other forums.

That's my vote!! What's a crap thread for me? Someone posting things like:

"Wheeeeeee..."
"Should I use wax to removed my body hair?"
"What color is the rainbow?"

Things like that are pointless. Make threads in which we can all participate and have fun. NOT the dumbest polls we seen lately!

I choose... the middle one. Some things that you people think are "crap are liked by some people. But please close threads like the examplle thread above.

I love pointless polls; they're often very funny.

Unfortunately the threads which are the most intelligent and thought provoking to read are the ones which get closed immediately ie religion and politics. Come on, admit it, would you really rather read about the ammount of weights someone lifted at school that day?

i choose the second option .... 2 reasons ... 1 because some of them are funny .... 2 you can make fun of people who make the stupid threads ....

cough deniro cough

The problem with those threads is that soon they become a war field. It's much easier to fight someone because of politics and religion than because someone is bragging about the weight lifting.

I think that the OTF should be moderated at some level...

The fun crap threads can stay but the worthless junk ones can go✅

I think crap threads are fine, just as long as they're not too sexual/political or contain some form of serious intended member bashing.

what makes a crap thread a crap thread??
