Vote. Discuss. No off-topic posts, or they will be deleted.
Mods can add options or ideas as they seem fit. Wanted to get this up so we could hear opinions from other users.

I'm with the saint. We've gotta move those game threads to a subforum if nothing else.

I voted for: 'Have one single thread for randomness. All other topics should have some central theme; Subforum for games.'
Because, there are topic which are let’s say stupid because they are for flaming and joking around with jokes that are not funny.
As for the games, if they are moved people might get annoyed.

People are getting annoyed by the games taking over the entire section, too.

it's not fine the way it is.
move the games.
dont delete MCC.
even if you made one topic for randomness, i almost garantee people will still spam other topics with off topic randomness so why bother?

I voted to have one topic for randomness, for the sole purpose as one should be enough. Personally, I'm tired of sifting through trash threads every time I log on, and guess what's in them? Absolutely nothing.
I say sticky the random thread (Call it MCC even?) and have everything else be light discussions that are too lax for off-topic.
And of course, move those games to a subforum. That way people looking for games can instantly find them, and vice-versa for the topics.

Why move the games to a sub-forum at all? Delete the bastards

Some people like their little game threads.
Some games are okay. The older ones.

Unsticky all the threads except the what do you look like thread. Move the games to a Gaming Subforum. The other idea really isn't necessary and will be far too annoying to moderate. You will get jerks like myself giving you a hard time, creating threads called 'muffin' for instance. which at first seems completely random, as it is, but if i say muffins are the central theme then thats justified to go in the apparently non random thread. this idea will work for a lot more than just muffins so id really just take one change at a time to see how it goes. First change! - Game subforum.
andI can't believe you guys were considering getting rid of MCC in ur precious mod discussions. the reason MCC was created was because there was too much random bullshit/pointless stuff in off topic. And if MCC is destroyed it will all just find its way back to offtopic.

That's not all that happens in our elite mod discussion. We usually throw parties and get completely wasted, while losing track of days at a time, no recollection whatsoever of what happened.
It is true that one person could damper the whole idea with creating threads out of spite. 'Course the reaction would be the same as what would happen if you did that in any other part of the forum: The topic would be deleted. One thread for MCC would probably get too many posts to moderate effectively. Still, there needs to be something done to stop this flood of ignorance.
Muffins would be a legitimate topic, despite how absurd it is. As long as it stays remotely on topic, you sir, have created a light discussion thread

Shhhhh! They're supposed to think we do serious business.
But yes, sounds good, Slash.
Banana walnut muffins are my favorite.
