A spot for John’s grievances OT

Post ‘em here buddy

My only real grievance is that we still don't have an agree button, despite one being promised to us before Christmas of 2021.

Sir, it is not Festivus yet. The thread for the airing of John’s grievances cannot be posted until the correct season. 

ColbyLang

We got a waaayyyyssss to go before we get to Festivus. Hope John is keeping a list

If you feel the urge to post something about your uncle @JohnInCarolina this is a safe space

My other grievance would be OT threads that are posted to the main board (such as this one), even when "OT" is added to the title.  We have an OT section of the forum and that is where all OT content should be posted, or eventually relocated by one of the many mods here who read all of the threads every day and always act expeditiously.

Nice deflection brother, are you perhaps running for office?

Is John the only one allowed to post grievances on this thread? 'coz I got one... Anonymous "dislikes" are for pussies.

It’s been going downhill ever since they made flags anonymous.

I'm pissed that most of the cooking posts get lumped into some "master" thread. There's no doubt that John started that sh!t.

Not a deflection at all, that is a legit grievance.  I think the forum would function a lot better were all of the OT stuff moved or found in the OT area, so that the main board would consist only of threads by new people or unique/interesting threads, with the occasional lump thread thrown in for good measure.

Imagine if all of the "what are you <insert activity> right now?" threads were moved to the OT area.  My opinion is that this would improve the way the forum works pretty significantly.

I have a grievance - this is a ripoff of the OG egg forum which is now dead.

This isn't siding with the Buffalo, because the Buffalo does not (currently) actively move OT threads to the OT area.  He lets them stay on the main board, or he sinks them or deletes them.  I am asking for something different from what the Buffalo currently does.

alaskanassasin

Ok but you did just drag a turd sandwich out of the appropriate OT section and slap it down on the main board

fishlessman

i see what you are saying. somehow the buffalo thinks members are adult enough to simply put them where they actually belong.......big difference, maybe the buffalos greatest grievance

You guys are confused, as usual.

I'm not talking about individual posts.  I'm talking about entire threads.

Regardless, I put that "turd" into an OT thread, which in my opinion does not belong on the main board.

But there are 5 OT threads on the main page and hardly any on the OT page

those are ON TOPIC-OT threads in the off topic forum

I just now realized an OT forum exists that doesn't show up on the main page.

Ok so your rules are very confusing.  We are allowed to have off-topic discussions on the main board but not start off topic threads? Also does the off-topic discussion have to go on a off-topic thread?

What’s the best fish to sous vide?

The viewership of the pure OT section of the forum is quite lean compared with the main board.  Thus if you want to provide some non BGE but useful information the accepted approach is to label it OT and place on the main board.  
I'm sure the lack of viewers on the true OT section is a John grievance but I could be missing the mark all the way around.
