...moving failed =10 posts to the OOT and instead move them to =60 (Unicorn forums, land of spam)?

Thanks.

Why not just blam the ones that truly suck and move the few decent ones to the feedback forum? Or wherever it's best suited to be.

Mostly because =60 is Allakhazam's loveable cesspool anyway.

How does a "decent" OOT thread belong here? It belongs in OOT. OOT just gets pissed because they've become the same kind of territorial people they despise so much in forum 4. :P

I feel obligated to take responsibilty for much of the OoT's recent xenophobia.

I've grown on them, like mold on a dead hooker, and my habits have rubbed off, like a leper's weiner.

I meant the FFXI feedback forum, not this one. XD

Assuming of course, the posts in question are trying to present some sort of FFXI-related idea that actually isn't completely stupid.

If it really is just off-topic, then yeah, it should go to OoT, or simply get blammed.

The OOT being the dumping ground for failed topics is part of the reason for the =10 resentment. Call it what you will, but anything that (was forum=10) usually gets karma nuked because it's gotten old. The Unicronians would love more topics to spam.

I say just nuke those posts instead of moving them at all. =60 doesn't NEED more spam posts...

I wouldn't mind post nuking, but if they're going to move it, move it to a forum that would like it.

Do we need more ammo to make more spam fests like the one Rime did.

I think not.

Think of the muted!

Blam it. Because we all know that now, every single thread that goes from =10 to =28 will be hated and cause outrage throughout the masses whether it deserved the move or not.

Jus' sayin'.

Well, truly failure topics are the ones that get blammed.

Off-topic posts should go to an off-topic forum... that's kinda the point.

Thing is, most of the users of the OOT community automatically karma nuke anything that's been moved from the FFXI forums for being off-topic because:

1) For the most part, they are dumb as hell
2) We are not the dumping ground for topics that don't fit the FFXI standard
3) If you want it to be nuked, move it to the Asylum because they're more efficient than we are, while still being an "off-topic" forum.

The OOT is less of a "general out of topic forum" and more of a community. Call it cliquish, call it whatever you want. This crap has gotten old.

Let me make this perfectly clear.

I am not "dumping" "reject" forum 10 threads on the OOT. I am moving out of topic threads into the OUT OF TOPIC FORUM.

You hang out in the forum that happens to be the place these threads do in fact belong. It's not my fault some of you are now forum snobs.

I'm not a forum snob. I like =10 threads. It gives my red arrow a work out and they go good with milk. Smiley: nod

How about, we actually look at the threads before we move them over to Forum=28. For example, if its a political thread, dump it in the Asylum and let them nuke it. If its technical crap, move it to the tech forum and let it rot in hell where no one will ever see it. If some idiot starts a stupid thread about what if you were a zombie/superhero/radnomstupidcrap it gets dumped into the Science Fiction forum. If its a random thread with no real home, then send it to the OOT where we can troll and nuke it ourselves. In other words lets not just dump everything in the OOT. Some of it has other places it could actually go. Oh, and just nuke the really stupid ones that only a Unitard might actually enjoy.

I'll admit that you do move threads that are out of topic of FFXI and not just reject threads, but alot of times, Admins just dump everything into the OOT when there are other forums within Alla where they are just as suited, if not more. See my above post.
