Alright, I know this discussion happened before but I can't find the thread, and I am not trying to start another debate on this... However I am wondering about the policy of posting things on the general board. Is the general board really a "Arts, musics, philosophy etc." board or is a board of stuff that doesn't fit in the other categories? Because he didn't want to put it there, obviously. Quoted from the Music Video's thread Also, sorry if you misinterpreted this. I wasn't trying to complain about the placement, but I was wondering if there was any special reason behind Ali's direct request on the bottom of the post.

He most likely requested it because the general board is the most popular board. And because the forum is kind of slow lately it has a higher chance of being seen when on the general board.

We should put this policy into official rule then.

making official rules just serves to clutter the validity of any specific cases argument. I personally think it should be ignored, and if it really matters, its a moderators obligation to move it. If he moves it, he moves it. Otherwise he respects the wishes and judgement of the poster. I dont think its that important in the long run.

I just feel that if people post against the cateogrizaiton of the pages in the future, this issue might come up in the future if it isn't "allowed" officially. It is counterintiutive for threads to go to the general section when they fit a more specific one. Inevitably, people will be confused.

again... if too many people do it, then the mods move it. I dont think people will get that pissed if their thread is moved.

We can remod but there are about five people visiting the forum. But whatever if you guys all agree we can do it.
