How Can You Be On-Topic If You're On A Off-Topic Thread?

[JaysInc]

The whole basis of an Off-Topic thread is to post content not relating to the website itself. So it only makes sense that whatever being posted in a thread that's off-topic should be, off-topic.

But wouldn't that mean that it's also On-Topic?

So the better question would be, can you be off-topic on an off-topic thread?

If the thread is asking if I should get a random game, and the discussion shifts to talking about dogs, you've gone off topic in an Off Topic Thread.

If you're discussing something that isn't related to the topic of the thread, then it is considered off topic.  Threads in the Off Topic section are "off topic" in that they are in no way related to Warframe, unlike the rest of the forums.

 

So, it is possible to be off topic in an Off Topic thread.

Threads in the off-topic section are supposed to be unrelated to the game. Replies to such topics still have to be on the topic of the thread itself or they are just as much spam as they'd be in any other section.

Off-topic threads still have a topic that is being discussed. You can still derail it. Like so:

 

If the thread is asking if I should get a random game, and the discussion shifts to talking about dogs, you've gone off topic in an Off Topic Thread.
