Why is it that everything is posted in General? - PSO-World.com Forums

Notice the proliferating amount of "Moved" topics around here? It's because people always post them in general because that's the only place they bother to go. This brings me to antother problem, why only post in general? That's where all the fanboys congregate and if you really want to know the people here (like I do) then you to do more then post in General. There is a huge world out there outside of the General forum. Why not explore it?

Back on subject, we have an off topic forum for a reason, aleast be smart enough to used it.

The irony of this is that the people woh need to read this never will because they only post in General. I could post this in Geveral, but then I get the "Hypocrite" flames.

They do it to get more views : 3 It makes sense for more people to view the gameplay forum section of a video game site :3
When snapple kicked the bucket, people were bucket-ish enough to post about in general. Mew!
When people made fun of gally001, he'd cry about it in the general forum ;3 w!

People made fun of Gally? I thought he was the one doing all the fun making.

I think you're on to something aobut the attention, but they don't realize that you can get alot of attention in Off topic.

It's the top forum. Takes the least amount of effort to get to and probably gets the most views.

98% of all of my posts are in Off-topic. o_O

I go there before any other forum, just out of habit from being here so long. x_X

..and then I make my way to Arkham, Rants, Fresh kills, Site Related, Mag/Quest/Item/Section ID related and then General.

Cloud_01 · 02-02-2003, 01:14 AM

The two forums I go to first are General and Mag, quest, item, and section ID discussion...

i always post at the off topic forum. it's where the most interesting posts are. but i also go to every other one that interests me.

[...if that kinda makes sense...]

A la Oberon and Vega.

Oberon and Vega, ugh.

So true.

I always check offtopic first, as it's basically a large forum populated by PSO players = automatically interesting, for the most part. I always find something interesting to respond to there, and, unlike other large gaming forums such as uh, GAMING AGE OR GAMEFAQS, COUGH, it's not populated by thousands of fanboys, trolls and uneducated rumor spreading sons of motherless goats. Lots of cool people in Offtopic.

The main forums on the other hand, I tend to mainly reply to newbie questions if/when no one else has in a thread, or add my two cents to any other topics.
Otherwise, I check these Rants forums occasionally as well as Fresh Kills (for a good laugh

), and very occasionally the other forums. 'Cept for the admin one, of course.
