Hey Outside the Boxers!
First of all, we want to let you all know that Outside The Box (OtB) will always be the place of the forums that will be dedicated to stuff that's pretty much everything else. From everyone's favorite food and drink to yawning and manners to just as mundane as What's the weather like for you, rest assure that OtB will be the place to discuss pretty much everything else!
With Support and Advice (S/A) now firmly established, it is now worth mentioning that topics that are more personal be placed in S/A rather than OtB. What I'm saying is that more personal and serious personal topics should be created in S/A rather than OtB.
Of course, we won't actively punishing for those who are posting threads in OtB when it really should be S/A and vice versa. However, we know that some people may not be comfortable in posting in threads that are more personal for the entire internet to see. Thus, we have a new guideline whether if something belongs OtB, S/A, and Blogs (Check the spoilers below).
If you have any questions about the new guidelines, feel free to contact SoaringDylan, G50, Pikochu , dragon_nataku, MegaPod, Cresselia92 or diamondpearl876 and we'll be happy to help you out!
Happy posting and post Outside the Box!

Sometimes it can be hard to tell whether a topic is better to post in this section, in your blog or Support and Advice.
