Nonsense Thread Proposal

[FixedDevice]

Proposal:

 

The purpose of this thread is to allow any form of whimsical nonsense that does not belong in any other section of Linus Tech Tips. The Off Topic sub-forum was created for posting non-tech related questions and other information while pertaining a productive environment. If a user wishes to mess around he or she may do so solely on this thread. Any form of harassment or posting real-life information will not be tolerated.

 

Staff you may lock this thread if you decide to decline.

we have rules for posting within the off-topic forum here: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/234698-posting-guidelines-please-read/

These are the specific guidelines all users must follow when posting in the Off-Topic thread. They are subject to change/update at any time.

 

1 - First of all, ALL the items of the CoC (Code of Conduct) apply to the Off-Topic section.

2 - The Off-Topic section is NOT for junk posts, SPAM, trolling and just any old thing.

3 - The Off-Topic section IS for productive threads that may not fall into one of the already laid out sections of the forum. At all times though, this is a tech centered and focused forum.

 

Any posts which are deemed by the mod staff to not meet the rules of the CoC or these guidelines will simply be deleted without warning. If you are found to have violated the core values of the CoC via a topic and/or post (attacking another member, vulgar language, racism, etc,) warning points will be assigned.

 

At all time when posting, remember these few key items from the CoC:

• "Don't be a dick" - Wil Wheaton.
• "Be excellent to each other" - Bill and Ted.
• Remember your audience; both present and future.
• No excessive/excessively off-topic threads or posts.
• No posting nonsensical messages.
• No "Flooding" the forum with similar meaning messages.
• The posting solely of memes or similar images without contributing to the discussion, memes can be funny and applicable but if it is completely unrelated it is spam.
• Do not create threads for the sole purpose of causing unrest on the forums.
• Do not cause disturbances in forum threads such as picking fights or insulting other members.
• Do not make non-constructive posts for the purpose of causing unrest.  This includes posting LMGTFY links.
• No replying to a thread simply to call the author a troll (regardless of whether the post is actually trolling)

We are working to make this a productive and positive environment for all and the Off-Topic section must maintain these standards.

 

Thank you all for your contributions to the LTT forum!
