Re: OOT FAQ topics - official thread.
[ QUOTE ]
don't do a FAQ discussing inside OOT jokes, do one talking about posting NSFW pics, searching for current event thread (such as movies, recent events) before starting a new thread, no poker in OOT. [/ QUOTE ] this is a good idea. if there is to be a faq, it should be like this.

Re: OOT FAQ topics - official thread.
I think all that should be in the OOT faq is a clearly defined set of rules for what is considered unacceptable - i.e. what will get posts deleted or users banned.
I agree with everyone else that OOT should be a free-for-all of stupidity, but the reality is that this is the 2+2 website, and 2+2 is a real company with real liability issues. Since what we say here does reflect on 2+2 as a whole, I think that Mat and co. have the right to decide what's acceptable and what's not. So far, he's been very reasonable and I'm sure he can come up with a set of guidelines that will preserve the inanity of OOT while avoiding all these "WTF? Why was I banned?" posts.

Re: OOT FAQ topics - official thread.
I'm down with it, obviously.
I think it should contain how to [censored] search. That's about it. Oh, and how to post pics, get your signature (hah) to appear, and a link to the real faq for 2+2.

Re: OOT FAQ topics - official thread.
specify that people post clean links, and preferably, no gigantic photos, so that threads don't get messed up.

Re: OOT FAQ topics - official thread.
Here's the problem with that. OOT is, in escence, devoted to stupid trivial conversation. And, it's gaining members daily. Often people will start threads, get the cow dung response, a link to a 4 month old post, and it's a poster who's only been registered for a month. I would rather see a new thread of an old topic, than a bump of a really old thread that the majority of use have already read. If there's no interest in a new discussion, it will die, provided people don't go out of there way to remind us over-and-over that's it's been done before. The exception is when someone starts a thread that can be found by looking 5 pages back. This is just laziness, and wouldn't even require a search, just that you read back a few pages. I still don't think the new posters want to be deprived of talking about the best line from The Big Lebowski, even if the old posters have already read that thread 15 times.
