That’s a shame! We need a bit more forum channels IMO

Didn’t quite know of that but it’s kinda common for forums to have a general chat spot, ridiculous there isn’t one already on here

well thats not really what a forum is for but i agree there should be an “off topic” category

Yeah I agree that there needs to be a general discussion channel on the forum. Also your topic is suppose to be in forum help > forum features, not development discussion because you are requesting for a feature to be made on the forum which belongs in the forum features channel.
You can just change the category by clicking on the topic title name and then click on development discussion and scroll all the way to the forum help > forum features.

Well, general as in stuff that doesn’t perhaps fit the few given categories, not necessarily a general chat hub but that could be solid as well I guess. The DevForum is more intended for dev talk I just feel like there’s certain stuff that doesn’t really fit a current-given category.

Yeah, I didn’t even know of a forum feature category until just a bit ago tbh, not a good look for the forum. Really, this should just be a category, appreciate you letting me know!

Plus one more thing, you should remove the first topic that you were talking about creating a general category on the forum because you can get the second topic taken down for being similar to your first topic. And whats the point of the first topic if this has been made?

yes bro there needs to be an off topic category EVEN if it’s restricted to only things that are about development
being able to ask a coding question in a centralized area where most people online are active beats scripting support by miles

Good point, since I had been informed of the forum features, I should delete previous, thank you. 
EDIT: Well, preferably it’d be nice if had feature to merge the 2 together, I’ll keep that other one up and if they want to take either down, so be it

Lots of discussion that doesn’t particularly “fit” the current given categories would benefit from such. Ridiculous that certain stuff requires regular role and I’m not even sure how to gain regular role even after being on the forum for a while and such.

What particular things would you make in said category? If there isn’t a place to post something here, it probably doesn’t belong here in the first place.

The Forum is for development discussion. It doesn’t make sense for there to be off topic threads. That is what the GCs are for.

Additionally, I will link my response from the previous topic giving more reasons as to why it is no longer in use:
counter argument: scripting support smells

If people aren’t active in scripting support, then people won’t be active in another thread for scripting support.
Try a development guilded.
Should this be added?

I personally think it would be an awesome addition, probably won’t get added however as it’ll probably cost more money in Roblox’s eyes to have more posts not fully related to development
I can’t really think of one reason that we need an off topic section on a forum for development.
Yeah, probably don’t need it, but seems like it would be an addition that I would use frequently
This is false, even asking for scripting advice in a troll #development-discussion topic was better than scripting support IMO
