What's the point of having different forums?

In the past few weeks people are posting other forum topics on Community Chat and among Friends that can easily be answered on the forums that they belong in. Yes I know we're free to post anywhere but why complain about something to do with the program or host on Among Friends?

 

Mods I realize that you have enough to juggle here but please help us by keeping forum topics in their right place.

 

These ate topics that have come up recently on Community Chat.'

Shipping issues

Health problems

Movies and celebrity news.

Jewelry

 

You Don't Own Me- Leslie Gore
(You don't Know) How Glad I Am- Nancy Wilson

ITA!!!

It's just more of an attention grab. 

 

It needs to be cleaned up.

Heavens knows the mods try very hard to put posts where they belong but some posters aren't cooperative and think theirs is "special".

I notice a lot of Wellness topics are posted in Community Chat. They probably want more answers from a wider range, but I don't like it either. & Q Talk topics, too.

I hope it doesn't end up like the Beauty Banter forum in the previous format. It was ruined by people putting O/T and posting anything they wanted there. Sometimes they said they put their post on BB because it was read by more people.

Exactly what do you think should go in Community Chat?  Just about every single topic in CC could be put moved to a specific forum.  Maybe they need to eliminate CC?

Oh no! They shouldn't do that! Where else would I find out the latest breaking news about who just died, or had a baby or a major disaster, or was abducted by bad people?

 

Oh wait.... the Internet! How novel! Who'd thunk it? Woman Wink

Some people here are notorious for posting OT in a forum just because their "friends" read and post in that forum the most. That is just very selfish  and inconsiderate of everyone else who goes to that forum legitmately to read the subject matter of that forum, and not some OT thread for a certain clique.


 

 

And some are notorious for posting very death, arrest, or negative happening of any type of any "celebrity" they can dredge up from page ten of Yahoo News.

 

Go figure.
