Hey Rumpleforeskin: What Do You Like and/or Dislike About This Board?

I wasn't going to say anything...but then I figured if I don't then you'll never know eh?

The ONLY thing I dislike about this board is the sometimes pedantic moving of posts to other forums. A while ago I posted a thread in the main forum looking for a particular type of content. I posted it there because I wasn't just looking for content providers to come out of the woodwork and spam me, I was also looking for recommendations from people I trust.

Sadly it was moved to the 'I'm looking for...' forum. Appropriate? Probably. Useful? Not at all. Not only did I not get even a reply from a spamming content provider, but considering that most people don't read that forum unless they have something to offer (ie. sell) or are extremely bored, I ended up with no answers at all.

I find it difficult to believe that not one member of this board knew where I could get what I was looking for...but those that most likely could, never saw me ask the question before it got moved.

To me, that devalues the enormous business knowledge available on this board. It's there...I want to be able to take advantage of it damnit!
