Who said anything about forcing the topics into specific subjects?

All I said was that technically, it should be SE4 topics. And as you know, I personally have no objection to non-SE4 Posts (within limits...like I wouldn't like pornography to be posted).

So, wrong again.

I find very cool and very intelectually stimulating to have SE4 and OT threads in the same forum, though I agree that the OT label should always be on the name of Off Topic threads.

IMHO, I vote to let them stay. Since I've been a member of the forum, we have always had an OT here and there and I never saw anything wrong with this as long as they are not abused, over used, or start flame wars. Its relaxing sometimes to discuss other aspects besides SE4 with your fellow members. I even learn some things or 2 about other topics from these OT's. This forum is different then most forums and is the friendliest of those I've seen or been in. Its become more of a family type atmosphere where you can sit down and have a brewski or 2 in one thread, talk about modding the game in another, or learning how to mod your game, or discussing various items throughout the universe as well as learning things about other countries or become involved in cartoon violence.

just my 3 cents worth

Hey shouldn't this Thread have an [OT] tag?
