This is the section for general chit-chat, but there is some rules and guidelines for it. First off, the rules:
1) No Spamming or Off-Topic posting. Spamming is when you post three times or more in a row (within minutes of each post), or rapidly post on a TON of threads, or chit chat back and forth with another person on a thread rapidly. Also, threads that have no point I would consider spam, like a thread that just says "purple elephants".
Off-topic posting is when you stray from a thread's topic. Please refrain from doing so.
2) No Swearing. General rule here is if your grandmother would be ashamed to hear it, don't use it. Words not allowed are (not a complete list, but you get the idea):
S-word
F-word
C-word (this is a contraversial one, but it makes it easier if you just don't say it)
Any racial or sexual slur
Also, keep in mind that substituting words like this - f***ing - are not allowed either, and will still be counted as swearing.
3) One or two word posts. These are not allowed either. The majority of these are "I agree" or "lol!" posts. Most of them are usually deleted. So please, make an effort to post at least a sentence!
Thread Subjects:
Take a look around Stuff and Bother to get the general idea of threads that go in here. They are mostly favorite things threads, general silly stuff, jokes, sometimes a serious discussion thread, etc.
As this is Stuff and Bother, LOTR threads are not allowed in here. Please post any LOTR-related threads in either the Book section, Hall of Fire, Annals, or Bag End. LOTR game threads go in Bag End, not here.
Political-related threads go in The Guild of Politics under Guilds, and not in Stuff and Bother.
"Hi I'm new" threads go in New Members.
Threads NOT allowed on TTF:
One or three word post games
The Person Above You game
Threads we already have:
Favorite Music (lots of these)
Favorite Books (in Related Topics)
Favorite Movies
Favorite Quotes
Forum Photo Album (in Member Announcements)
Birthday Thread (in Member Announcements)
Computer Game forum (sticky at the top of Stuff and Bother)
Movie Quotes Game
Song Quotes Game
Middle-earth Name Game (in Bag End)
Caption Contest (in Bag End)
Things LOTR Characters would never say (in Bag End)
How to tell you're a LOTR fan/obbessed with LOTR (in Bag End)
LOTR Game Shows
And just cause I see a lot, Signatures must be FIVE LINES OR UNDER!
Any questions, feel free to PM me!
