No, the title is SE4. There is nothing that says that is the only subject that can be discussed. So technically, you are wrong.

Yes, the title is SE4.

So, technically, it should be SE4 topics. But I was not being technical and had no problem with non-SE4 Posts.

So, you are wrong again.

No, the title does not force the topics into that specific subjects. That is not how forums operate. I am not going to go in another circular arguement with you because you will not ever admit you are wrong, even when you are obviously wrong. So, consider this over.

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.

David E. Gervais · #26 March 26th, 2003, 02:08 AM

hmmm,. should I add OT: to the beginning of my avatar thread? It's not really about SE, although I did do a bunch of SE based avatars.

So, what am I to do? ...add the "OT:" to my thread of course, but does it mean On-Topic or Off-Topic?

Looks like we have a dilemma!

Cheers!

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

just some ideas Mac

So is this ego inflation, or monetary inflation?

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