Off-Topic Addition Idea

[Loriayle]

THE OFF-TOPIC SECTION DOESN'T SEEM OFF-TOPIC.

There, now that I've screamed:

I wanted to start threads that don't relate to media, software, or hardware... But those are the only things in the "off-topic" section of the forums. There is nowhere to put a thread that doesn't relate to those things.

At this point, I just keep seeing people posting threads that aren't even about media into the "media" section because there is no place else to place them. It's all pretty much jumbled around in a big pot of whatever. Wouldn't it make sense to make a place for miscellaneous threads in the off-topic section? I don't know... It's just been bugging me that there's no place for threads that aren't about the media, software, or hardware sections.

I think this is needed, and it would make the forums more organized, more versatile, and more fun. Just me? Okay. If you don't agree, please explain why or just vote in the poll, because I can't come up with anything against this at the moment... Except maybe more work for staff and less censorship on certain topics.

And yes, I know there are forum games... But a lot of these aren't really games. And why are forum games under "media" anyways? I feel like forum games and other off-topic threads should have their own area (under off-topic of course)...

I totally like this idea. The off topic part of forums is out of hand. This will help :P.

No an offtopic section in the offtopic section. Thats the name .-.

What? I mean like, add an area for off-topic things that aren't forum games, youtube, or discord/teamspeak related. Not make an entire section like the off-topic. I just meant a subtopic addition.

I don't really care about that. I don't post ''Off-Topic'' things very often.

I never said what it should be named tho. You know how there's "forum games"? Well, why not move forum games from media since it's not even media, and have a section named "miscellaneous" or something of that sort, for threads that aren't forum games, not media, not software, and not hardware.

I think this is a good idea because I usually post threads and am not sure where to post it. I think a thread for other things would be a great addition.

I don't post too much in off topic but good idea!

I agree, their should be an actual off-topic area.
