The 'About our website' section is becomming impossible to visit, because of all the moved (wrongly posted) topics.

It looks like a lot of people (mostly newbies) post their questions in the first section they see. ;)
Please guys, post in the right places so we Mods can do what we're best at: being lazy! :D

Surely this is a tip.

Shouldn't a mod move it.

Yes but if a mod moves it there will be a space.

Defeats the purpose really.

You need to reword the forum description.


About our website and this Forum
Feel free to talk about anything and everything in this board. As long as it is related to our website or this forum.

Imagine the newbie. Has just joined. Probably wants to talk about a kazaalite problem ( which is why they joined ).
The first forum they see is About our website and this Forum.

Looking down they read

Feel free to talk about anything and everything in this board.
"Haha", says the newbie. "This is where I need to post my question / complaint about kazaalite".

The occasional newbie might even read the second line.
As long as it is related to our website or this forum
Newbie pauses for a second. "This website / forum is about kazaalite." he murmurs.
" Therefore this is where I need to post my question / complaint about kazaalite".

:rolleyes:

*for the record I had telepathically told everyone that i also thought the forum description was weird and it should be changed. whether you recieved my telepathic message or not is your problem and i am not liable for any brain damage that may have been caused*

How about:

'About this Discussion board'
'Talk here about things that concern this forum.'

Just a suggestion.

How about "Talk about anything in here APART from this website and forum".

Thats when you'll get the people posting in here about this webstite lol.

Do people join because hey have the need to ask a quick question? If so they would/could have done that as a guest.
Becoming member is that they want to be a part of this community. Is it so hard to check what forums there are.. Think three seconds and you see there is a part that that's called Kazaa related...
I think bells must be riging then.

People need to take just 5 minutes to see how we made it. What sort of questions, tips and debates are on in musicworld, movie world or... What is discussed in kazaa related.

If you wanna take part in here it's not much asked to read a bit before you post. Just my opinion.

You only joined on March 19, it can&#39;t have been you&#33; :D
Anyway, I wasn&#39;t Mod back then, so it&#39;s not my fault. :lol:
