A&H isn't bad for some of the funnier or strange articles. It's just the same outrage bait that attracts the spergs.

I don't see an issue with hiding the Off-Topic board, it's more for users anyway. I seriously doubt anyone is coming here for the hot takes in Deep Thoughts.

eh i mean e3 coverage and game awards is pretty fun when that happens
 
Fuck you, all I read on A&H was the impeachment thread. Why not tell them to stop copy pasting every article and stick to archiving it? If people can't read and quote from inside the archive they should go back to lurker tier like me.
 
That's unfortunate. Now I have to log in on my phone in order to browse the random image threads in general discussion whenever I'm up at 4 in the morning, bleary-eyed and unable to sleep. What do you expect me to do now, browse the site at a decent hour like a responsible adult?

As an aside now that I think about it, I've linked friends to some recipes and breakdowns in the Food and Games subforums on occasion. No more than five or six times total, and it's nothing compared to the site's overall SEO, but there's a lot of really handy threads in the off-topic sections that I liked knowing I could show people without them having to sign up to the scary shitposting site to see it. I hope at least some of the subforums will be made public again at some point in the future.

crazy thought, but isn't people generally more interested in "on-topic" discussion (ie. eccentric individuals and communities on the Internet)?

What's the point of inviting people to see "off-topic"?

Our 'Articles and Happenings' board serves a different niche from standard lolcow watching.
 
It’s cool as long as you never remove off topic. That board turned the site from a place to laugh at autismos to a lovely forum full of wonderful people.

Okay, this is unreal.

A&H is literally destroying this website.

And I looked, and behold, a pale horse! And its rider’s name was Death, and Hell followed with him. And they were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by wild beasts of the earth.
