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.

We can talk about the same thing forever, but we all know it's just a case of balancing fun with seriousness and usefulness. We try our best to keep the balance right, but we obviously can't please all of the people all of the time...

I don't want people to stop posting anything OT, of course it's good to talk about other stuff now and again, but this site is different to most others in that the main focus is on the cars. In my experience, most other sites consist of people just waiting for someone to post so they can flame them and show how hilarious they are and how many fail pictures they have in their photobucket account

And as for noobs getting flamed... if you think this site is bad, you need to look around a bit. There are tons of people willing to help new people! We actively moderate threads where people get flamed. As long as people have made a reasonable effort to search for themselves, which is fair enough right?

Now, pleeeease keep posting and making threads and keep 6GC a useful, interesting and friendly community
