**Special note about the Gaming Discussion Board**
The board name is Gaming Discussion, not Off-Topic. Talk about gaming, specifically, things that don't already fit better on other boards. Please be considerate! By making a thread you are essentially saying that what you create is important enough to take up space, which is arrogant if it isn't. There might be some forums out there like gamefaqs and neogaf that are operated as a boatload of topics. We are NOT like that. We like to consolidate threads to make it easier for people to go through them, so please search for things and post in the correct places. Our policy is not to delete human posts, so don't worry about that, but even a locked thread creates some clutter.
Here are some examples of what you might want to talk about and what to do:
- politics, religion, or anything else that isn't gaming related: tough luck, try another site.
- saying hi or introducing yourself: "Introduce Yourself" thread (do NOT make a new thread)
- posting a picture of yourself: pictures thread
- asking for someone to do a speedrun of something: request thread, but if you want to put your money where your mouth is, bounty thread
- hey guys look at this gaming vid: video thread
- something that has to do with SDA: SDA Discussion
- getting videos/recording/playing/something to work: Tech Support
- speedrunning for a game in particular: look at the Planning section and figure out if you should post in Newer Consoles, Older Consoles, or PC
Especially in Newer/Older/PC, we highly recommend bumping old threads instead of starting duplicate ones. We also have the ability to give the first post in a thread to someone else, so ask for it if you need it, and realize that creating a new thread to have control of the thread title is a pointless and terrible idea.)
If we lock your thread, it is not because we hate you or have anything against you. Do NOT take it poorly, just shrug it off. It's probably obvious why it was locked, or an explanation was given. If not, please ask a mod about it. Don't make a new thread. If you're wondering why such and such other thread didn't get locked which is worse than yours, either 1) we haven't seen it and maybe you could let us know about it, or 2) it was locked before. When we made the forum switch to smf, all the previously locked threads became unlocked.
