Poll: Should AnandTech get rid of the Off Topic forum?

Page 7 - Seeking answers? Join the AnandTech community: where nearly half-a-million members share solutions and discuss the latest tech.
No, for all of the reasons previously posted. I used to check Hard Forums and Sharky Extreme daily. Now, I never go there. Why? Mainly because they changed for forums.
 
It they get rid of it, some of the idiots will spill over into other legit areas.

P&N was created as a haven.

S/W is bad enough with all the games (hint, hint)

Easier if you can corral them into one area and place a cyclone fence around them.

To much work chasing them all over the place.

Also, need some entertainment once in a while.

Probably not but I've noticed that since he did the quality of threads in OT has improved significantly!

Without off topic Anandtech would die.

I beleve for a majority of us, after we stop being pimple poppers we lose interest in computers. I know I outgrew my geekness at about 16, and the only reason I still come here is to ask the occasional Tech Support question, and to browse ATOT.

ATOT would lose alot of advertising if say, half the amount of people came.

I know, but I thought I would point it out for the 228 people who want it gone.

I think if OT was gone, I would only visit AT once a day. 😉

Hey, why not? 🙂

Also if OT did get shut down, I'd be forced to change my home page to somthing else & never visit Anandtech again!
