    Default Why is the "Off Topic" category always the most posted section on a Forum?

    Maybe someone should start a Forum just with the "Off Topic" category

    That the TK. The TK has no topic and is just for hanging out. Offtopic is well populated because there isn't always new things going on in the other threads.

    Because it's the section that covers the widest range of topics.

    And there is an Off Topic-only forum. It's huge. I think it's called The Casual Discourse Forum or something similar.

    There is? Really?! Where is it? Link or it doesn't exist.

    BTW I responded to your post in the Suggestion Box.

    Off Topic is not a topic in its own but rather a collection of threads that has nothing to do with the core (gaming in this case) of the board...
    What are the different flavors Chica? Me Loves Strawberry.

    The TK thread always feels a bit exclusive, almost there for only a couple of members.

    LOL! Nah Dude anybody can join in, granted they can stand the smell of oculate
    I know how you feel, felt like that in the beginning too. Its just coz we hang out there most of the day, we get to know each other and actually become good friends. Sometime i might look like we hate newbies but we don't. Just think before you post, if one of the guyz haps you [email protected] just stand your ground. If they kick you out the window, well thats kinda like hello. I think most importantly is to be able to take what you dish out. You will notice that Me, Oculate and Syco sometime look like where picking on others, like Phoenix or Lynus but its all done in good fun. Their all a bunch of great guys. Im sure Dixie will vouch for that, plus she will gladly take you under her wing.

    Like the others said, it's the wider variety of topics, it's less restricting than an only games or only consoles forum. Some of us do stuff besides those ya know .
