Having a specific place to spam and make weird posts takes all the fun out of it.

I would love that. A tiny little outlet where we can go crazy and people won't complain about it like they do the RT. I'd even volunteer to be in charge of it. :mrgreen: 'What happens in the Crap Depot, stays in the Crap Depot' mwahaha...

There's the WFWF, though they're not run by the same people as this place.

I was thinking like something like "Off-Topic Discussion" or "Religion and Politics", that format.

Whoa, an entire subforum to crap? ... I kinda think one thread is more then enough.

RT doesn't need to be locked, stupid people just don't need to post there. And funny people don't need to post "GENTLEMENTLELENTLEGENMENTLELENTLERENTALGENTLE"

I... actually kinda like the fact that worthless threads aren't made all the time. Maybe it would be interesting to see something of quality, but... I have quality threads already. *hugs the threads* WHY CAN'T WE HAVE A CRAP DEPOT. WHY CAN'T WE HAVE NICE THINGS.

... then again, if RT gets locked I could always make a thread called 'The Crap Depot' lawl...
It's not really the spam that bothers me as much as the fact that there are almost no original threads anymore. People seem to think RT is their personal blog and outlet for everything they think of, and that needs to stop. If that means locking RT for a while, I'm okay with that.

Wait

Are you talking about Jello's forum, which is now SERIOUS INC JESUS CHRIST WILL PEOPLE LEARN THIS.

Or are you talking about the forum for Mike's friends.


Because if you mean Serious Inc I'm pretty sure me and ramrod are the same people who run things.

That wouldn't really fit for what anyone here really wants, I don't think. It's mostly his IRL friends and they mostly discuss their real lives.

For a short time, I want to a forum that had something like this, called "Bash+Thrash."
http://metanet.2.forumer.com/
That forum.

Also an idea

Move Random Thoughts to Forum Games

Rename it to The Crap Thread

Problem solved

1.

Great job, everybody. RT hasn't been good but that's no reason to go all ultra-negative, "THIS PLACE SUCKS WAHH REAL LIFE SUCKS TOO WAHHHHH" and move it to forum games then the mod forum on a freaking whim.

Also don't get me wrong RT doesn't make this forum but it's an example of the negativity we all complained about when Mandy was "leaving"

Wait. What the crap.

"Random Thoughts has been moved to the Mod Forum for the time being. It will remain there until we start seeing you post actual content and not for the sake of posting.

Once we see this, it will be returned to it's normal place. If anyone feels the need to recreate Random Thoughts during this time. It will be locked."

... You know, I can get behind a lot of decisions you mods make, but this one just downright doesn't help/solve anything.

Okay, this is a good idea for an experiment, but just remember that not every post in that thread was able to have a subject made for it. Besides, it's a message board: while we don't need a whole topic, let alone a whole proposed section for spammy posts, they should be able to slide. The whole "Gentleman" thing was sort of like the Star Fox fad in Random Thoughts back in April, albeit kinda more silly and annoying than reciting Star Fox quotes for four pages.

Hey Gravey? We can't post actual content in Random Thoughts if we can't get to it.

BTG, that was a jerkwad move. A simple warning would have sufficed.

Oh snap.

I can't think of one person who posts exclusively to RT, though.

Frankly, putting it in Games or somewhere that it doesn't get post count is a great idea, though.

That would have worked for about three pages and then it would be back to what it was before.
