Welcome to the new version of the Introduction Thread. This first post of this thread now features more information and will be updated at least weekly. Please check back often to re-introduce yourself with our weekly questions! (see Section 3)

Section 2 - What Belongs on Off Topic Board?

Off Topic Board is for subject discussions that do not fit on other boards on Fan Forum. We encourage the creation of discussion threads, no matter how random. However, if the subject matter is not suitable for this board, it may be merged, closed or moved to other boards on Fan Forum. Please do not feel discouraged to start new threads because of this reason. We understand that sometimes, it is difficult to determine which board your thread should belong to or if your topic should belong on an existing thread. As long as your topic doesn't conflict with Fan Forum rules, we'll find a place for it.

Posters should also be aware that no new game threads are allowed unless approved by the moderators of this board.

Previously, some game threads and continuous threads have already been cut from this board. Please do not start them again. To see which threads you should not start again, see our announcement for threads closure:

Threads Closure Announcement

If you have any doubts or questions, you are welcome to contact one of the moderators of this board by private message (PM).

Section 3 - Re-Introduce Yourself Weekly!

Each week, we'd like to invite you to re-introduce yourselves by answering our weekly questionnaire. Every week, we will edit the date in the thread title to let everyone know the questionnaire has been changed, so you can venture in and make a new post answering the newest questionnaire. Our questionnaire may appear in the form of questions with a certain theme (like the game thread we used to have - The Friday Five), or just a bunch of random questions (like the game thread The Hot Seat). The questionnaire consists of your basic info and 5 new questions each week. Simply copy the questionnaire below and answer them in your post. Have fun and check out others' answers too!



Questionnaire of the Week

This week's theme - Hairstyles

Section 4 - Thread Guide

There are a selected number of threads on this board that are popular and continuous. We have decided to include the link to the latest thread for each one of these topics so that posters can locate them here if they are having trouble tracking it down on the board. Please be advised that we will not be making a guide with links to every thread on this board, which means game threads, bunny threads (Getting to 10,000 Posts...), and any new topic threads are not part of this guide. The only game thread included in this guide is Hangman because the nature of the game is different from other game threads and posters will likely try to track it down to see the current puzzle.

In the future, if a topic thread not currently listed here has the potential or demand to be included in this guide, we would consider adding it here. If you see that a link here is outdated, please post on this thread or PM a mod to let us know. Thanks.
