Aug 3, 2015 its just stupid business. how you gonna take your most active section and change what makes it great and not build on it. when you dont have any music dropping you have a dead forum. Let OT be free or make a sub forum.
Aug 3, 2015 Make the section Hide it from guests/latest posts You'll stop hearing complaints and have Off-Topic as the communist grilled cheese paradise you envision it as It's a win-win
Aug 3, 2015 Remember when JMG wasn't posting as much or not at all and everyone seemed fine with the way the forum is structured except for some discussion about the artists forum, but now everything needs changed to fit his needs?
Aug 3, 2015 How can I be JMG with the forum operating like this? I stayed in one section cause I knew I was safe. Now im f-----. If this is a way to get rid of me for good then its working.. but if im not wanted here you guys could of just asked me to leave. You didn't have to ban forum drama.
Aug 3, 2015 Love this idea but they aren't even considering it. I don't see what the big deal is, people can just avoid it if they don't want to be involved and it'd be hidden from guests. You could even hide the section from the latest posts/hottest threads. Not everyone's here to discuss music.
Aug 3, 2015 Plus you turn of notifications so people who dont want to come in wont ever have to. I feel like theyre saying no because its something requested by members and not themselves.
Aug 3, 2015 They're saying no because most of staff has continously wanted to get rid of the Off-Topic section altogether
Aug 3, 2015 not rly, if we wanted to, we would just delete it...to me OT is what gives forums characters...usually ever forum shapes up based on its misc section..but we have a duty to direct it to the right path..i dont want this forum to be about fighting
Aug 3, 2015 That was when arguing and fighting would carry over to other threads all over the forum though. I just don't see how members could complain if they willingly go in there and agree to the rules. The idea is that only the kinda posters that enjoy the random misc BS would go in there. But yeah I realize it's probably not gonna happen.
