Why post O/T outside this forum?

ajdown, 5 November, 2010 at 15:50 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 8

Curious why so many threads in the 'planning' forum end up starting with O/T and are about things nothing to do with weddings.

More to the point, why don't the moderators move them out of there and over here instead where they belong?

    I think people assume they will get more of a response over on WP - which is true actually. Of course, if people started posting OTs on here, we would get more traffic and that problem would be solved.

    Sometimes it's annoying that they always post their O/T posts on WP but I kinda like the small group we have on here.

    Sometimes i find it irritating to hop from board to board to check my responses and as others have said a lot of people just feel comfortable with the folks they already 'know'

    I used to post OT threads on WP but only because I didn't know this part of the forum existed!

    Maybe this part of the forum should be higher up the listing when we log in. Admin? I suspect most people post in WP and don't take much notice of the rest. Might be wrong - I am occasionally (but don't tell OH)!!

    AJ - i post OT on the wedding planning part a good bit.

    Simply because no one over this part has every heard of me and I don't tend to get the same level of respone. I've only posted topics outside the WP part twice - once about a mobile phone asking for comment/review on here and once about my nephew's illness on Baby talk and neither were responded to. So I figure, WP is where I belong! haha

    I think this is a good idea.
