I'm not knocking anything you guys have suggested, I just don't think any of this has been a really big problem...nothing unusual at least.

Well, Brooke. There IS NOTHING wrong with the off topic threads. I didn't say that there was something WRONG with them, I just said that there may need... oh never mind
Yes, Brooke you are right, if they are in the General/other forums than it is ok. YES, that is the purpose of all of the other boards.
Also, sometimes people notice something that some people didn't even know was happening. It just deppends on where you are at the time.
A newbie has been attacked right off the bat before. It has been done more than once.
