This month we've had a lot of random (but all good) threads - such as what Star Wars character are you, what Friends character are you, what animal fits your personality, even one about shoe size, so here's the next one........
tattoos
Have you got any tattoos or are you completely against them?
Each to their own - I don't necessarily mind if someone has tattoos or not - it's their body - - but I have to admit it would personally be put me off if it was someone who went OTT and had them all over their face.
I have 13 tattoos in total - some are quite small and a lot of them are hidden most of the time (as I don't go out in a vest top and shorts everyday), apart from my bracelet ones.

@chiara might as well scrap this guideline then
2. Search first: Use the search function before posting a question. It is very likely that you will find the answer to your question from previously posted threads.
2.1. If you still can’t find what you’re after, don’t be afraid to post a question. Asking questions is as much a part of contributing to the community as answering them.
Just my oppinion

Isn't that guideline for other threads and not the off-topic thread?

community giudelines apply to whole board not selective parts unless it is written in them http://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Welcome-News/Community-Guidelines/m-p/487846#U487846

Adam, that clearly refers to on topic content ie if I wanted to know how to unlock my phone, I'd search the forum first, see if there is already an answer which means I wouldn't need to post at all. This is to avoild that the same questions are repeated over and over.
Here we're talking about off topic which is generally used for light-hearted conversation. Imagine if we were to pick up and resurrect threads that have been dead for 2 years...
It's a pretty standard practice, nothing to do with bending the rules.

I think maybe the guidelines should be amended then if they do not apply to all of the threads.
Anyways, back to the topic........

@chiara I beg to differ no where is off topic excluded in the guidelines.
Good evening I am off to consider things.

@Adam Try to search "tattoo" - you'll get a good idea of what I'm talking about.
Asking a question is different from starting a conversation.

So lets have two threads about the same thing? That makes perfect sense. ITS NOT A NEW TOPIC!
I have commented on older threads in the past and I have been told off by other members for opening up old threads - so I can't win either way
