If I were to post a tech question in OT it would then be considered off topic for off topic, so would it get locked for being off topic in the off topic forums? After all you are then off the topic for the off topic forum:confused:

well let us take a vote...
to be locked or not to be locked-

for being OT in OT about something on topic?

I'm all confused now:eek:

Uh, I was going to lock this, but after reading it, my brain started to hurt. :confused:

well sometimes the other/correct forums are too slow, and you might have a much better chance of getting a reponse in OT

You are absolutely right! Oh well...

well if you know the nature of the question then it would have a topic...

if it was a tech question then there are the software and hardware forums..




Yeah it should be locked..

it has a place..

Yep, it would be locked. It belongs in the tech forums... all you did is muss it up. That's like asking would it be off topic to ask an offtopic question in the hardware forums :).

But I would be asking an OT(comp related) question in OT so it would be OT, but isn't that what this forum is for?
