Because the second the name Lars is used in ANY conversation it INSTANTLY becomes a Tech. issue. He oozes tech out of every pore.

Hey TT...I searched back in the old "Split Yay or Nay" thread and found my suggestion....

"Well people posting in the WRONG locations is NOT an excuse to not split. It IS an excellent reason to have a moderator that would MOVE the posts to the appropriate locations. And perhaps repeated offenses could be cause for removal of some of those precious stars under the names that people seem to covet so much."

I still think that's a good idea

Maybe an admin needs to double check all the forum menus. I KNOW that if you are set up for Community = C3 then from the C3 forum menu all you get is:

C3 Gen
C3 For Sale
and C3 Parts

but if you click on C3 gen it opens up C3 tech. I've been in there, and also have posted gen stuff in there, not realizing I'm in tech.

*edit* what I mean is from forum homepage, choose "Theme" as C3 section, that's where the menu is as described above

You're right but I doubt that many here go through the main portal to the forum, most have the forum itself bookmarked.
