Off Topic Forum

[Xzen]

I don't think it's a good idea. It's one thing when an unofficial fansite does it to keep their boards flourishing, and another when it's hosted by the official company. Also, they'd be making their jobs less easy.

For instance, I noticed today there were a couple of locked threads about bin laden. Why would SE want to bring political opinions on their official Final Fantasy XIV forums?

Edit: Silly speed-posters

Those threads are locked because they are not FFXIV related. If they were in off topic they could just be left to themselves.
