New sub forum wanted and some more ideas.

Actually, we let people post a thread where ever it makes sense even if its not the best place and it has been like this for a year or so.

For example if you want to talk about cars, you can do so in the general forum or in the vehicles forum. Different forums usually have a different audience.

If however a certain forum is filled with threads that would be better off in another forum, they are then moved there.

So I can post about habbo in the discuss anything forum and you wont move it? Well you said I can "discuss anything" there, so I want to discuss habbo

Anything which is not related to Habbo yeah.

I still think MADs comment is contradicting "Discuss Anything"'s forum desc:

Come here to discuss anything not covered by other forums.

Why make a vehicle forum and allow people to post about vehicles somewhere else :S Doesn't the forum rule say "Post in the right forum"?

Bit stupid imo.

I agree to a certain point though Discus Anything is the main forum where you can discuss all area's of outside habbo though there's certain forums for topics which will attract ONLY people who want to know, unlike Discuss Anything where anyone replies.

I do have to agree. they may as well remove the vehicle forum etc if people dont use them? people only post in the discuss anything for a better response but if the threads were moved to the correct forums i would expect them to become much more active.

Obviously there is leniancy in the rule, but there has to be a limit somewhere.

The rule was changed quite a while ago:

C18. Post in the correct forum - Make sure that the subject of your thread matches the subject of the forum that you are posting in.

I think It was decided that it really didn't warrant all the paperwork to chase up the members and - in fact If I remember rightly it is Sierk's view that it is not up to members to check that they have exactly the right 'forum; as long as they in an area that seems to cover it and a mod can move it. You don't get warned or infracted for it.
I don't think think applies to the trading section though. The Habbo section can be a pain with multiple threads covering the same subject especially if its busy so the mods there have to be on the ball when its busy to merge the threads which is the simplest and tidiest way of doing it.

Thats the thing, the mods dont move it.
