I think in this Forum is little Problem with Off Topic. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> (yeah mine too <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> )

The reason for this is (i think), we all like to discuss.

And thats just great <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

But everybody of us had a Thread, where we do not want to have Off Topic Discussions.

Here is the Solutiuon.

If anybody of us realized that the (wich ever) Thread go Off Topic, so please copy the Posts here, and say: Please let us got to the "Helpfull Off Topic Thread"
Then we can quote it here and speak about it without to have a break, or everything is said.

Here, we can be Off, totaly, and absolutly Off. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Somebody needs to speak about Schools, and there is no School Thread? Come here. Your welcome.
Need somebody a discussions about Onion, come in, take a place, and enjoy.

Everything which is in other Thread Off Topic, is here welcome.

That the rules, i hope this is a good Idea, and we all use this Thread.
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

Sounds not bad ... so the intention is to tryto keep everything offtopic outside ontopic threads ?

well, then we must have the strength to do so, so to say. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

I like reading the “off topic” thread you all have
on the German side of the house.
It’s quite funny, entertaining, and educational at times.
So I'm happy to see an "off topic" thread here too. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

Tsel <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

I had the idea after all the discussions in the "I need to Leave" Thread, and some other posts.

I think some of the off topic discussions are really interesting (no, not the Schoolthing <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> ), and they are worth to go on.
But normally that will damage the Thread where the Off is going on.
So i think, after two or three post in a OFF Direction, we can move the diskussion and speak about here.


I think, we had to do something for the cosy feeling <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

So everyone, copy this URL, and post it whenever the conversation starts going off-topic. Is that the idea?

Yes, or write that the discussen have to move, maybe copy the last Posts.

You mean like this?



This discussion has moved here.

Nice idea,

check out my deviant art page http://static07-.deviantart.com

@ Stone -> A very good idea you have here. I love it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Now if someone will just keep me on topic in the other threads. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

@ Draghermosran -> I am having trouble getting your link to work. My browser
keeps telling me that the URL can not be found. Is there another way I can
get to your artwork? I would love to see it.

Shan <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Great testing Seth. If you can do it, then maybe I can get it to work too. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

No guarantees though. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Shan <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Shan, u're going way off topic here. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

janggut, this is the 'off topic' thread...why are you 'on topic'? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

Tsel <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />

okay, this topic needs to be moved here: Here

Tsel <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />

But jags, I gave no guarantees that I would stay on topic. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shhh.gif" alt="" /> Don't tell anyone, but being off topic is fun. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shhh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Shan <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

try again, deviantart.com is a very heavy visited site, needs some patience.

I briefly took a look at it.

Al, u're being On topic, please get OFF it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

I would like to be the jumping guy, but I would probablly be the guy in the ugly cap (no the purple one though) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/puppyeyes.gif" alt="" />.

Übereil

You mean that pale looking one, Üb? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />, No you can be the jumping guy, why not,

Ooww, you're a cooler than, should have nown that before...hehehe <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />

Please stop the spamming here people, or i ask Lynn to close this thread.
My reason to open this Thread is to transfer the good Discussions from Threads where they are Off Topic.

If enough Member want a real Off Topic Thread (like the Offs in the german part) we can open one.

I thought i had made my opinion clear.

In the last Time i heare to often that the cosy in the Forum is gone, and thats the way of the Forum is not so good than before.

I hear to much whining about all the Spam Threads like the Funniest Picture Thread, or the Illusion Thread, or the different a-z Threads.

This Thread is opened as a tool, a tool who can save all the little discussions, a tool which can hold the other Threads Off Topic free.

And what is the reaction? Spam, no serious manage

Jokes, and Fun can we have in every Thread, for a while.
But normally the Off destroy the good Threads, but the Off Discussions are normaly to small to make a own Thread for them.
We all have something to do thats the way of this Forum is change back in a other way.

Please people, think about this. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Hey guys, I agree with Stone completely.

It would be nice to have an Off Topic thread, but this thread is not being used
for what it was intended.

When I read the posts in this thread, I sense that it is being made a joke of.
That takes away the meaning of the thread and the good that it was created for.
If you want a spam thread, start a spam thread and entitle it Spam. Don't
destroy the good that this thread was created for by just filling it with spam.

Please help us and use it for what it was intended.

Last Answer from Setharmon

Don't worry about it Stone.
They (we) chat everywhere these days.
I guess mentallity changed. (Not only on this Forum.)
That's why "old members" who come back say that the forum changed a lot.

But useally we can get ppl back on topic by ignoring the chat or posting a helpfull post or making the chat to rediculous.

Your idea is still good though. Just like the off topic in the german part. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Just give people time to get used to it. And use it properly.
Like the post of me that you quoted. It's all about illusions. Don't move posts to fast.

There should be a "I don't want to start a new thread to say:" thread :o

I bought a wacom for 32 euros today.

@ Draghermosran -> I saw your post about buying a Wacom tablet. Have you used
one before?

Are you into computer art heavily? What program do you use?

I never have been able to get to the site you posted. I am still trying though.

Shan <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

that's odd, the site is a community of artists, digital and photgraphy.

I'm a student multimedia, get things from websdesign to video-editing.
today was my first experience with a wacom, I use Photoshop, since years now. And now Corel Painter Classic wich came with the tablet. I'll try to put my work on another host tomorrow or so.

That's a terrific price! How big is the tablet? Which model?

I think you are going to love using the Wacom tablet. I've been using one with
Paint Shop Pro for over 2 years now and I wouldn't know what to do without it.
My use is not job related, more the thing of just loving to mess with photos
and drawing and painting.

I got hooked on Corel Painter when I got my tablet and it is a fantastic program.
I just recently got Corel Painter 9 and I have been amazed at all of the things
you can do with it. Now if I can just learn to use them. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I have just recently started to try to learn how to draw. Everything before that
I have messed around with has already been drawn or taken from a photo.

If you know of another way to get to the page you posted the link for, tell me
and I will try that maybe by just going to the site first and picking an art
group or artist or something like that. Are you listed there under the name
you use here?

Shan <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Erm... Back to the discussion if it's you or everybody else that is wrong: Is it 1/4 of the world or 3/4 of the wold that drives on the right side of the road?

Übereil[/quote]
1/4 on the left, 3/4 on the right.

Yeah, that was a minor mistake from my side <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />...

Dunno who posted that but a good link, thanks <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

@ Nero
So you did saw me? And you didn't drop by to say hello? I would've invite you over for a marguarita, but since you acted like you didn't know me...


<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/question.gif" alt="" />

love is everywhere........ isn't it? .....usually..... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/stupid.gif" alt="" />

AND.....always remember.......

Actually I was intimidated by the two piece you were wearing and didnt have the nerve to talk <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />

@ Nero
Yes, I'm very sorry, but this "deux-pièce" bikini model was the biggest I could find. I know how scared you are of tiny bikini's <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> Bikinifobiac!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" />

Now Mea is really put out .... not only did she miss out on the Spaghetti Bolognese <plz take note of the spelling as this is correct <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> ) but also missed out on seeing Gal in a Bikini, be it large or Miniscule .... although if it has to be large ... well that brings up a whole new subject <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />

That depends on what you like, Mea <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
Do you like a lady with flesh on the bones, or do you prefer them Elle Mc Pherson wise? Or maybe something in between? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> I usually don't wear them minuscule, it bothers me when I'm swimming or diving <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Ahhh, it wouldn't bother me in the least! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

Oh, i never see a big green Orc in a Bikini. Whether it was large or miniscule.
