After mulling it over, ...
The bunny only mulls about his mullet
A friend in my middle school had a mullet. He wasn't that big of a thinker. Never mulled over anything except if he should change his hairstyle; he never did.
bro thats me, except i am much of a thinker
So now the bunny can think, therefore he can feel, therefore he can love. But love is an incredibly complex emotion, and love and hate can often be interchangable. A 'tsundere' is a light example in human terms, but how do we know that our love isn't the bunny's hate?
Never! Love is a gut reaction
it is (well not always...)
but i hate kids who are like dATInG
and **** like bro ur 11, calm down
Chapter 2: Willful Support of Destruction
4/10
good reasoning
horrible claim
Chapter 3 (I think): The Welcoming Side of OTF
----------------------------------
Alright, OTF isn't all bad. Obviously there are good sides to it, and I feel the need to balance out the negativity with some positive things I have seen and experienced first-hand. There are many welcoming people in OTF, and they seem to be kind when a new person arrives on OTF.
These are just a few examples of the welcoming nature of the OTF community. In my time as @thethicc0ne, I experienced little to no hitches when interacting with people, and actually made new friends. Considering all the "slop" that's on OTF, some community members, maybe most, are actually nice and aren't representative of the slop that appears in the forums daily. I'd give my rating as @thethicc0ne a solid 9/10, as there was a pretty big hitch, but it's been buried under a large volume of comments. Mostly though, I don't think the forums are indicative of the wellness of the forums. Next chapter coming soon.
5/10
positive but nothing else
That's great that you have an opinion on each chapter, but it would be even better if you could elaborate on why.
SUB-CHAPTER 2: FORUM SHIFTS
This forum is practically out of commission, but I'll try and make something useful before I retire it (probably not permanently). This will be shorter, and if I make another chapter, it'll probably be a longer one to compensate for the lack/shortness of the other chapters.
Begin: This is a problem I see constantly in multiple forums in and out of OTF, but mainly IN OTF. There are multiple instances where a thread gets "hijacked" and changes topics completely, deviating from the original topic. This is such an annoyance as you could be having a good conversation and then someone completely 180s the subject to something entirely different from the original forum. In regular discussions, there should be a gradual change to a topic that correlates to the original, but in most cases the hijackers change the conversation to something beyond the original topic or sub-topics that relate to it. Not a whole lotta ways to fix this problem aside from staying on topic, but for most people that is a difficult task, due to their lack of holding a conversation that flows naturally, or because they saw their friends and wanted to talk to them. Please keep stuff that isn't the topic of the forum in another forum that encapsulates all of the off topic chats (OTFDAN) or just DM the person. It's fairly annoying to the creator when a hijack/change occurs, and if it goes to an extreme, it's practically impossible to bring it back to normal.
Agree completely, also:
You could also just, I dunno, make your own forum for the topic!
True. But most of the time, people just want to talk to one specific person about anything. It gets when others join the conversation and forget what the thread was supposed to be about in the first place.
I couldn't agree more! It's so annoying to see a thread get hijacked, especially if I was actually trying to follow along with the topic. I haven't seen much thread hijacking on my OTF OOC thread, but to be fair, it's a bit harder to hijack that one because it's more broad.

I think every single one of my threads beyond 50 posts got hijacked within half the post count or less. It is quite disappointing, and what a lot of people who do it don't realize is it indirectly tells the op that their post is meaningless, and that they have nothing to say on the topic, resulting in discouraging good posters from, well, making good posts.
thats sad, mine consistently stay on topic
it's dependant on the topic and the interactees
thats sad, mine consistently stay on topic
SUB-SUB Chapter: Bumping
Real quick, if your forum dies and you bump it once or twice and it doesn't gain traction again I would just let the forum go. Continuing to bump it would be like bringing up something nobody wants to interact with and may also lead to forum pollution.
Let's add this one to the slop bucket...
