Thumbs up What thread topic goes where? A short guide!

You may have noticed a number of threads have been moved to other parts of D & G.

We've all got a bit lazy and getting subjects in innaproppriate forums.

Bear with us we have often have the same problem as you guys in deciding
What thread topic goes where.


Well it's spring and the traditional time for a clean up.

What can you do to help us keep your house clean and tidy.

1. Take the time to read the Ten Thingies again and reset your "mental" posting defaults. You know what we mean.

2. D & G Reporting Points;

is not a dumping groound for every passing thought, we want to keep it clear for reporting and comment on new stuff and breaking rumour and news.. "Ansett, what made it a great airline" though germain and interesting does not qualify for there and perhaps should have gone straight to D & G Questions.

The other important point about that is that it keeps you moving around amongst the other Forums and you'll find things there you never imagined, although that is not the prime objective.

HM of you have had a cruise through the othe non D & G Forums, it's a wonderland of information views and new ideas out there. You might also find that the moderating here has been done with a fairly light rein.

3. D & G Aircrew Notices;

Fairly self explanatory, we think most professional pilots understand what to put there and where to go.

4. D & G General Aviation;

Is exactly what it says, a Forum to discuss issues specific to General Aviation.
It is NOT intended as means to separate the biggies from the littlies, but save both ends and the middle for having to trawl through endless posts to find, interesting as they may be, that they are not relevant to them.
Most people are still using dial up at home and on the move, that is time wasted, frustrating and expensive.

5. D & G Questions;

Basically anything that either has a WHY directly in it or the implication of.

I say again;

but at least have a bit of a think before you rush into print.

As always your comments are welcome, but as usual we do reserve the right to make the rules.
