It seems to me, at least, that a lot of other boards are being merged, most of which are completely separate niche's, but then you literally have two general boards, OT and RT, that you won't merge due to some seven year old kids getting butthurt.
WHY YOU SHOULD DO IT -It makes no sense to have two boards for the exact same thing -It makes no sense to have two boards that have extremely similar communities -Easier to moderate, probably. I know you want to purge OT of its edgy scum, right? -Any good RTer/OTer wouldn't care if you merged the two; only ones that throw a tanrum would be those that have under 2000 post count, thirteen, and think that they're actually an important part of the community -Just do it. Why the hell not?

| If that happens, we might as well all the forums into one super-forum called "Ethnic Conflicts & Genocides" cause the flamewars would be monolithic |

That's the fun part, lol...
But seriously I regular both and I know that would happen barely and only for like the first few days. After that it'll settle down. |

I actually would like RT and OT to be merged.

Literally the only reason why they're separate sub forums is because they have different communities

There are some social borders with forums that shouldn't be crossed. Crossing C&G and LMaD, crossing C&G and OT, and crossing RT and OT. Honestly, the 'under 2000 post count 13 year old' who complains about them merging is no different from the tryhard OBC 11 year old who thinks that it's a good idea to do it in the first place.

this is the primary reason They're the same thing and fight over each other like they're nations, and once they merge and realize that they're the same damn thing they'd stop |

| It makes a lot more sense to merge two boards that function for the same purpose and a very similar community than it does to merge ones that have nothing in common except that they're loosely "entertainment" |

I'd say just merge both into one forum and call it General Discussion again

"And OT and RT are the exact same thing don't give me that crap.
-digit threads out the ass -tryhard trolls -minimods -people who think lollll 69!!! is funny -people that are complete arses to everyone else -uglyfirewizard -crap cliques of teenage girls and their hmu bby <3 bastardization of english"
I love how you undermine everyone in RT and OT like you're better than them. To funny. Regardless, you still don't understand social borders, and those are two that will never come together. Roblox knows why.

"I love how you undermine everyone in RT and OT like you're better than them." what i posted was an accurate description of both boards ask anyone who goes on ot/rt on this thread and they'll agree
"Regardless, you still don't understand social borders, and those are two that will never come together. Roblox knows why."
roblox DOESN'T understand social borders at all don't give me that crap they're pretty much shutting down both GC/WWC and MT, which actually do have distinct communities and is senseless to merge with something like vgf in mt's case
ot and rt are literally the same damn thing they have the same damn kinds of posters some of which i mention they make the same damn threads and the same damn replies

this i understand not wanting it to be called either RT and OT and i think GD is an appropriate compromise |

It would make the merged subforum more active too. RT is just too slow nowadays.

Actually, you have your biased opinion of a 9 year old posting on OT after having one too many twix. Here's what RT and OT are:
RT: "A popular hangout where ROBLOXians talk about various topics." OT: "When no other forum makes sense for your post, Off Topic will help it make even less sense."
Sorry hun, but opinionated suggestions never make it anywhere but the grave.

OHMYGOD DAMN I PISSED MYSELF LAUGHING, LITERALLY ...

"either bait or moron"
i'm hoping this guy is just bad bait, because at this point you have to be astronomically stupid to believe what he just said |
