Being new here and in discussion boards in general,I don't know how this works exactly. Someone reported the post? Does a mod sweep from time to time looking for words or phrases to label it off-topic without reading thoroughly? How can a comment (well-crafted at that) on the dev's work can be considered off-topic? How can a comparison of the game to other titles be off-topic? Every discussion starts at point A and can lead to point B,C or even Z and that's perfectly fine, as long as everyone is respectful and civilized and noone is obnoxious or unreasonable. We can disagree, debate and mess with each other to our hearts content, that (I think) is the main reason we're all here. How can giving opinions on other games in comparison to this be off-topic?
I will very respectfully and all sugary and stuff ask... WTF?
This thread is typically the worse one to be policing since there are just so many more posts here than anywhere else on this site. So my guess is someone reports a post and then the deletion includes removing other posts that have quoted it in reply.
Typically posts don't get reported unless they become highly unpleasant, but there are also some people who just rub the general population here the wrong way (in no way, shape or form am I alluding to
Arigon, except that I pretty much am
), and some dude reports the post, because Arigon was just too mean (except Mean Arigon retired ages ago, only Pussycat Arigon comes here now
).
Typically if you discuss other games here, those posts can get deleted, like a list of your favourite games, or stuff like that. But I guess a comparison post is borderline, so it can get canned too.
The aim is, if you wanna discuss a bunch of shit you like, including this game and other stuff, or even discuss a bunch of shit you don't like, like say perhaps that childish farse called Leap of Faith, you do it in an off topic post, either create your own or gate crash someone else's.
Freddy's Bar is a good place to talk bullshit, rarely a coherent thought to be found there (make sure you give it a really shit rating).
I'm not really sure what this thread is for though. I think it's to tell stragglers when the next update is (but we don't fucking know), or provide save games to people who want to finish the game quickly so they can access all the pretty pictures and jerk off right away.
That, and pretty much talk shit, but on topic shit it must be!
And on that note, since this post here is like 100% off topic, I'll finish on a bright note.
Zoey best girl!
I mean Quinn!
Or maybe Nicole... or even Lily... Fuck...
