I think they decided the wheels of the train go off the rail rather than on. I worry for the community.

That is another problem I have seen. Sometimes somebody will post something off topic along side the on topic post, you know as a joke or something. But instead of just ignoring it, people continue with the thing until the thread is completely derailed. I'm not saying that we should be all on topic 100% (although that IS kinda the point of the forums). Its ok to once in a while put a little off topic thing with your post next to the on topic part, you know for fun. What I don't think that people should do is just post something that is only relevant to that off topic comment. If you see someone mention, I dunno, lets say bacon (because eventually I mention it) it is probably meant as a side joke and not for you to just post a new post that has only to do with bacon.

I mean SCP-Sean posted a comment about masks (why I don't know) but that doesn't mean you can just go and post just a picture of a mask. It ends up people posting pictures of mask related stuff and just de-railing the entire thread.

Ah f***in love it!.


Anyway, you know how you always get a bit aggravated when someone double posts? Whell,

On the off topic area, someone (cant remember the name) with a avatar of a pyro with a hat posted a topic called 'let's delete this before any mods come on.' And all it was was the guy saying, 'I like hot dogs' 'I dont' ' :173: ' 'I gotz to run but I too lazeh!' and so on..., In the end it was locked but clearly a typical example of what the forums may come out to be as......

How ironic, locking.
