why? The cafe can be maintained as a spam free zone. I honestly think it's the peoples fault, not the forums. When they say off topic, they mean not Halo related, not going offtopic in the threads. Just cuz its offtopic dont mean it has to be a spamfest. Members turn threads into spamfests. So thats why members lock threads before hand, so theres no mess to clean up.

If you like the ability to go offtopic, try the FF

they should fix the description to more like "Anything that doesnt fit into a topic goes here" or something like that cuz it screwes people up when they see the word Off-Topic

If they actually read that, they'd see that it also says,"check the Rules before posting"

^ and The Rules State

DA RULES wrote:Many people seem to think this is a "spam" section. For clarification, this is not a spam section. There is a difference between off-topic and spam, remember that. Spam is not allowed anywhere on the site, including here. This means no "Random Story" or "Describe the person above" topics. Topics like these will be deleted immediately.

Its Not A Spam Section (Funny i was looking it up as you were posting that cuda)

most noobs dont read it. i havnt read it but i really dont need to since i have common sense and no what not too do.

and i think this this topic is pointless we already talked about this in my topic about Royal being banned and BEEF said he would work on getting it fixed so i think this topic should just get the Majic Words"LOCKED"

Or HalomodsCafe. There's literally a "Spam" section there.

... they know, i believe it has happened numerous times in the past... (remembers quote war with d4rktemplar)

A lot of posts like the ones listed in the rules or like the "Post your Favorite Lyrics!" or stuff like that, ususally become spamfests, and the mods have learned from experience that these threads lead to problems. So, Why wait 'til It becomes a spamfest and clean up the mess, when you can avoid the whole thing, and lock it beforehand?

Ex-fuc*ing-actly.
Sorry, I just thought that summed it up perfectly.

That isn't right, you should be able to be promoted even if you post in the cafe. I'm trying not to flame.

RaVNzCRoFT · Post by **RaVNzCRoFT** » Fri Apr 21, 2006 5:19 pm

I'll ignore the bump, since I would like to correct you. You can be promoted if you post in the Cafe. As long as you don't spam the Cafe, you can be promoted.

maca_§ · Post by **maca_§** » Fri Apr 21, 2006 6:56 pm

Yup.
Now please don't bump topics, Warbandit.
