The "Official" "What is an official thread?" thread.

[Juzbee]

Just curious. I see threads that say "official this thread" and "official that thread"... Wondering, what makes a thread "official"?

Official threads anyone can enter. Unofficial threads you need to know the secret knock to get in.

Don't be telling new people that! LOL Now we will have the "Official secret knock thread " For Gods sake don't tell them the difference between Official This and Official That threads or I will ban you for a minute and a half.

if you make the thread before anyone else, that makes it official.if you choose to name it 'official'.
if you make a thread that already exists you risk having that thread locked.
since the name of this thread is official threads, I guess it makes it the mother of all threads lmao

In all seriousness though there are a couple types of Official threads.

Those that have the OS logo before then are started by "employees of OS. The red names you see post. Then you have threads that are started by Mods or long time members of OS and these are usually tagged with Official. The only guideline really is to try an limit the thread count and keep OS organized a little bit.

Is this the official thread about official threads?

Only if you know the secret knock apparently.

I feel like we should be discussing Umpire Uniforms in here.
