It comes down to who decides "does this add to or advance the thread in a constructive way." Most people think their thread meets the criteria. That decision ultimately resides with the forum mods.

Normally, I would agree with this...but this is the off topic. Like I said before, at what point does off topic get reverted back to on topic and who's to tell someone else that what they say is not as relevent as the next person? It seems it really all comes down to what YOU want to talk about.

If someone brings up Poke'mon games then a lot of people are like "OOHH! OMG! LETZ TALKBOUT DA POKAMANZ!". But if someone brings up, lets say a conversation about genital warts, then someone would be like "omg.howimmature.pervert.youdontderserve.to.be.here .kthx.bai". Are they both off topic? Is one more offtopic then the other? It seems to only be only the people that have been on these forums get to sway the opinion of the crowd. The popular vote counts.

If there aren't hidden rules, and I have to follow on the same topic as everyone else then:

1.) Change the name to ON TOPIC
&
2.) Take off the word "Absurd" in the forum title. (the definition of which is: Ridiculously incongruous or unreasonable.)

I concur with you good sir. If it's not deleted then it has not been deemed spam by the mods. But since this is the Off-Topic thread the mods are very very VERY lax about what they delete. I have seen people get away with just this

Hi

123456789
Yes both are Off-topic BUT they are pertaining to a clearly stated subject.

But meh, over and done with time to move on. So I am seeing Def Maybe tonight with my gf. I hope it's at least decent so I don't get bored out of my mind.

{Off topic} No, I don't live in Vegas. Do you like it out there?

{Off topic, maybe} Happy Valentines Day all.

{somewhat on current topic} Just getting GF a nice card, stuffed animal and maybe a box of nice chocolates that I know she will share with me

V-day was made for companies to make money and guys to get laid, tbh.

Can't really complain, but yea...it's not about love.
