• We’re currently investigating an issue related to the forum theme and styling that is impacting page layout and visual formatting. The problem has been identified, and we are actively working on a resolution. There is no impact to user data or functionality, this is strictly a front-end display issue. We’ll post an update once the fix has been deployed. Thanks for your patience while we get this sorted.

I think this thread need to be locked...

If the mods are in a modding mood, take out the guy who started the thread too. I think any post that starts with 'I know this doesn't really belong in this section of the forum, but since this place gets the most views/posts' should result in a perm vacation 😉

Maybe.

The OP was trying to be helpful at least. The other guy was just being beligerant.
I would say take it easy on the OP, since he's new. He might not be aware of the Software forum (which doesn't get nearly as many views as GH or OT), and for someone looking for only computer-related stuff, they might be scared away from the madness in OT pretty easily. 😉

But for being stupid, beligerant, and a general jackmaledonkey, concerning the poster that the OP of this thread referred to, I say:

BAN HIM :thumbsdown:
 
Whether he's new or not shouldn't matter. It's not like the software forum is invisible to members until they have a certain post count. From post number ONE, they should know where to post what kinds of posts.

I would have assumed that and not said anything if it weren't for the "'I know this doesn't really belong in this section of the forum".... He knows better, but doesn't care. Just like the jo's that post in OT because 'it's busier here'

I would say the homophobic stuff is much more serious than posting in the wrong forum. Just move the thread and give the poor guy a warning.
 
Actually, I recall Jason saying the Hot Deals forum gets the most traffic by far, more even than OT 😀 Of course, that was before P&N, so who knows...

I'm guilty of having posted a virus alert in GH myself, back when the MyDoom epidemic broke out (I even had the nerve to request a sticky! :Q). Hopefully the statute of limitations has run out by now 😀
