Default Make the Lounge "untechnical" (not unethical)
i see more and more people posting questions here regarding hacking, vbulletin, or simple internet questions...

and i see that we already have a lot of forums dedicated to these questions...

HERE: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/forumdisplay.php?f=92

as the forum description is clear already:
Quote:
This forum intends to host any kind of chat except vbulletin and hacking issues!
i would suggest to add:
Quote:
any question related to the internet, hacks, codes, etc are to be deleted or moved
...

we need a place where none of these subjects are posted, so we can really focus on more important topics, like football, cars and girls... (ok, for the young at heart!)

I think if someone wants to discuss ADSL modems or the latest xBox it should be okay. The Lounge is kind of an off-topic forum in a way.

yes for the xbox, this is not internet related... but for the hosting, etc, i think we need to have a larger General Coding/Questions forum, where all technicals are discussed in a focussed way... having a forum dedicated to hosting questions, or ftp etc... a real forum for the internet in general...

what comes when a pack of guys go to the bar and talk about hockey/football? ... when someone ask if his laundry machine need to be fixed, i don't think the guys continue the discussion.. they look at him and laugh and continue hockey focussing! .... bad image, i know... i'm not a visual guy!

Sit back in your lazy-boy recliner and chat away. This forum intends to host any kind of chat except vbulletin and hacking issues!
Any serious vBulletin or hacking discussion, I agree, should be moved out of here - However just because a thread mentions vBulletin doesn't mean it should be bashed for it...

I think we should keep the Lounge pretty much how it is now; Threads that don't belong get moved...

Do we really need a vote on this.

Don't you have something useful to do nexialys ?

The lounge should be for any general chat, we have enough rules already.
