I am suggesting that you change the slogan of The Flood -- "If it doesn't fit anywhere else, it goes here."

This is going to sound stupid, but this is misleading. What about spam? What about threads that go against forum rules? They don't fit anywhere on this site, not even the flood. I do not have any suggestions in line as to what to change this to, but I do not believe that slogan is fitting for this site. (Please correct me if I am wrong.)

Thank you for reading.

Well.. what they mean is "If it doesn't go in any of the other specifically designated forums, it goes here." Obviously they're not talking about spam because that's against the rules. So I don't see a problem with it.

Obviously they are not talking about spam, that's simple logic, but it is still unclear in the slogan. Something like this is supposed to (in my opinion) be 100% accurate.

If they were to put "If it doesn't go in any of the other specifically designated forums, it goes here" as the slogan for The Flood, it would sound rather awkward (in my opinion). Everyone should know that spam is against the rules, and pointing to the forum slogan should never be used as an excuse.

...When did I say that it had to be similar to that? I am saying that I believe that The Flood needs a new line, one that is more accurate, or it doesn't even have to be accurate, it can be just some one liner, I personally don't care, but if it's a line like that it should have 100% accuracy IMO.

The slogan hasn't even caused any problems to this point, so why would it be a problem? The Flood is the off-topic forum, so the slogan describes it as such. I'm pretty sure that most, if not all will know not to misinterpret "If it doesn't fit anywhere else, it goes here" as an invitation to start breaking rules (which, by the way, are quite visible as a sticky).

The old slogan was "Say your stupid things here." Compared with the newer slogan, the old one was more misleading. However, I can only remember a minuscule amount of times that somebody would mention the slogan as their reasoning for posting spam or somesuch. I hardly think the issue needs to be addressed. Until I actually see people using it as their excuse for being an idiot, I'm gonna say that it should be left as is.

As long as they don't use 'The Flood - Random', I'm happy.
I'm warning you Bungie, don't. You'd regret it.
Seriously.
DON'T.
