Why?

avatar

Why was the offtopic forum deleted? it didn’t have to be this way, Reed didn’t have to delete it to change servers, it’s not like if it was an obstacle or something. I’m just sad that that this forum, which has been useful for bringing the community of drawception together, is now gone. What will new comers that can’t use discord or reddit do to communicate with the community aside from art, games or issues with the site? what will the future of drawception hold if Reed keeps removing things that this community, HIS community, loves and cares about?

But that’s just me, there might be something that I don’t get or missing

One word, Kevin, one word:

Shitposting

But think of threads like the “weird dreams you had” thread or something the “how old are you guys” thread, did they really had to get deleted? Do they really deserve to be on the games forum? think about it

avatar

As Reed would say: garbage thread.

avatar

or comfy general
or what song is stuck inside your head
or things you love
or things you hate
or accomplishment thread
or vent
or real world news
or shoutouts
or unpopular opinions
or weird facts about yourself

some discussions just can't be done on discord and require threads

Find another forum to post on or something. Reed won't let it happen here.

name one then smartass

If Off topic is gone then Reed should implement a chatroom.

You do know that there was the “user face reveal thread” too, right? Now you guys will never see my face once I get to level 50 or 100

avatar

Nobody will ever get to level 100

Reed essentially nuked an entire city to kill a cockroach

@Penguinfami

I'm pretty sure I heard someone say that there was a general chatroom before offtopic.

It was deleted for the same reason to my knowledge.

As long as he doesn't get rid of Forum Games..

The off topic created a whole community and lead players to meet other players. How are we to do that in the other threads?? It was a wonderful place and it's removal is just stupid. The people who actually use the off topic didn't have a problem with the occasional shitpost, so why should it matter. It contained the shotposting, which will, without a doubt, seep into other threads now

Theoretically the DC Discord is supposed to replace offtopic. Of course some if not most of the people in offtopic/the talk thread can't access Discord, or are too shy to post in it anyways.

reed yeeted us and he's not gonna bring back off topic no matter how much we whine.

that doesn't mean i'll stop whining, i just won't waste too much time whining

and you guys shouldn't either. You all are essentially typing out the same paragraphs and essays over and over again.

we put up a good fight, but everything that can be said has been, it's time to say goodbye.

f

guys i really do think that offtopic should've stayed but reed has seen your posts and he still deleted it anyway. saying "bring it back" won't bring it back as much as I hate to admit it.

I don't have a discord and don't want to have to make a whole new account to talk to the people from this site. It's seems especially tiresome considering there was already a place to do so over here

avatar

If you can access the forums you can access discord. There's a browser version at discordapp.com, and all you need to make an account is an email (which you need to have to make a DC account in the first place.) The only time you can't access Discord is if you exclusively communicate while on a network where discord is blocked.

or if you only have a phone.

v I mean, to access to browser ver.

There is an app
