We need to keep this place under control, ok?

I get it, it's about SMG4 and his crazy videos. However we do need to take some careful consideration into how we handle things here.

Case in point, I'm thinking of making a new rule here.

Too many people (and you know who you are) have been making senseless banter on topics that haven't needed it. Not only that, but months and weeks after topics are finished. Sometimes I see in my email and notifs replies from threads I dumped communicating on weeks before. What is it of? Random, unrelated crud.

It is not productive and it doesn't help the wiki. Our forum is split up into several sections, all for different purposes. Their purposes are mentioned clearly. What should be on the Fun and Games board shouldn't blast over into the Q&A section.

What I'm proposing is if a subject matter is over, or if the topic is extremely old to the point we can see the month date marker, propose warnings to those that go extremely off-topic. There are your message walls, blogs, the chatroom and the fun-and-games to go crazy on. That's really plenty to work with to continue the random fixation. I've participated in the F&G forum because I've been trying to help promote it because here's the sentence promoting the dang place:

"This board is for off-topic conversation -- a place to hang out with your SuperMarioGlitchy4 Wiki friends."

Then if it goes crazy possibly those warnings can turn into the sequential bans?

This place seriously needs to get into order. I'm not banning randomness altogether. Just keep it under control. There are specified places that we can use it. We might as well make the most of those while we can.

So what do you think? Seriously, I'm gonna need consensus before we add it to our rules, which I'm gonna ask Zog to help continue. You are an admin as well, you should also know what's best.
