Every week myself and other mods move a bunch of threads from here, or delete them. 90% of the new threads in here should be in General Discussion.
To summarise:
If it's off topic discussion, it goes in General Discussion. If you don't have GD acccess yet (100 posts) then you will have to wait until you *do* have access.
If it's a funny joke or youtube video about geeks/computers/whatever, it goes in General Discussion's humour thread. Posting it as it's own thread in GD is likely to result in it getting locked there anyway.
Requests for a favour or such go in GD as well. If it's a major initiative or something relevant to EVERYONE or a LARGE GROUP of people here then it might fly in O/Community.
If in doubt put it in GD and it will get moved if necessary. Better yet, contact a mod.
I am now going to delete any junk I find in O/Community. No warnings, no thread moves.
To reiterate:
This forum is NOT a General Discussion forum for those who do not have GD access to post off topic stuff here. It is not a platform for advertising. It is not a place for chat. It, above all, is not a place to dump threads if you aren't sure where to put them. Please please please contact a Mod if you need clarification.
