Default Just wondering

Other people post threads in general chit-chat asking for advice or tips on how to shoot certain things and they get left here. But I post asking a question here where there is lots of traffic and I might get an answer and my thread gets moved way down in to other techniques category where it will probably never get seen. Why is that? It has happened to me more than once yet I can point out at least 4-5 threads in this section right now asking similar questions.

If you feel a thread should be elsewhere, there's a "Report Post" button on the top left of each. Its used for major issues (spam, infractions) but can also be used just to get the moderator's attention to move things, change image sizes, etc.

Sometimes the Mods see it, sometimes they don't,.. Luck of the draw I'm afraid..

Osmosis and SwissJon are both correct. Threads should be started in the proper board of the forum; otherwise, we would just have one big posting board without any structure.
