[QUOTE="LightPhoenix, post: 71432, member: 115"] On the one hand, it's very simple to just scroll past any topics that are indeed OT. Most are clearly marked. Additionally, as was stated, OT forums generally are a pain in the butt to manage and patrol. It is pretty much giving the go ahead for the religious and political crap that often occurs. On the other hand, the description of the board is quite clear - "Discussion of a general nature, including RPGs in general, DM/player issues, settings, fantasy D20 System products, etc.". This clearly does not in any way indicate truly off topic stuff. And I don't come here to chat about the latest topics in news or people's lives. What I would [i]really[/i] like (read: dream) is an option people can check when a post is OT, and an option in the user config to not show all the OT posts, much like the no-avatar/sig options now. That's probably wishful thinking though. LightPhoenix [/QUOTE]
