Just reading through various threads this afternoon and I noticed that there are a lot of people posting threads, questions and links in all the wrong (Alderaan?) places which not only means you might not get any replies (because it's not being seen by the people who need to read it) but it also pees people off too.
Now, the moderators can move them of course but it's extra work to move, merge and tinker with things and one click on the wrong thing and we've lost your post! (Weasel has fat fingers)
The main problems are ebay listings/links being posted in Vintage chat when they should be posted in the ebay section. Off topic posts being made in Vintage chat when they should be posted down in "off topic" ( :lol: ) and sometimes modern items are being discussed/sold in the vintage sections.
All of the forum sections have descriptions below their name which explain what they are all about so there really is no excuse. If you do make a mistake and start a thread in the wrong place however, then just let us know and we can move it for you.
Another good idea if you want to post something that might already have a dedicated thread (like pics of your artwork for example) is to use the search function and see what you find. The forums been going for 10 years so there are a fair amount of existing threads to read and add to instead of starting new ones.
Thanks guys!
