6gc.net OT forum Options

[SeverX13]

Ok so i might get some people mad or get some people not a fan of me but i dont understand why people are being so uptight about the OT forum. the point of the OT forum is just that. off topic. This is just a forum. we all need to lighten up. If people are complaining about peoples threads or posts in the OT forum than y did the thread to talk about anything get closed? its perfect. People cant talk,debate and joke about ANYTHING. if it gets to dirty or over the line a mod can just clean it. I jsut dont understand why everyone is so uptight about the off topic forum. Seriously who wants to be part of a forum that is so uptight. Most of us are adults here. i seriously feel like some of the people complaing about jokes or any type of unseriousness are the ones acting like middle school kids. If it was in any other forum section i could understand. but the off topic? come on people. lighten up. we all need to laugh. if no ones laughin than your not living. there are plenty of options to fix these problems. i know im gonna get critisized for this but i dont care. i needed to get this off my chest.

Wow, after reading all of this... I completely changed my mind.

At first, I agreed with sever, i also felt like.. why the huge commotion and strict rules on the OT section? Why are so many threads locked? Why are so many threads deemed "inappropriate"? Why can't we just talk about whatever we want?

But, as I read through this thread, I came to a realization and a revelation. 6gc is a car forum that's STRICTLY focused on 6 generation celicas. Pointless threads are well, pointless. We're not here to blabber about online crap, or complain about life. We're here to talk about CARS! One of the best arguments made was that this is a PRIVATE forum, privately funded at least, so we have to adhere to the rules set by the owner and the moderators if we are to be part of this exclusive forum.

So yeah, I won't post pointless threads in the OT section anymore.

I'm definitely looking forward to the updates on the site, but until then, I think I'll be visiting here less frequently because yeah, the 6gc forum is not the place to talk about whatever we want, its a place to discuss 6gcs.

Thank you mods for keeping it clean

i do agree with most of that. but YES this is a car forum but this is also a social place. we all share the same love for the celica. thats why we are on here. but for me, i like to bond with people in more ways than just cars. so thats why i like the OT section. i can get to know members and just make some new friends. If this site was all uptight and serious i doubt alot of people would still be on here. sure some seriousness is needed to run a site like this. but the OT section and the funny comments by some members make it worth while. Blabbering about online crap is Off topic. there nothin wrong with that unless its inappropriate. but the complaing about life you should def just talk to a friend in person and keep that away from the forum.
