site feedback name change?

masque · March 16th, 2006

I was thinking about all the misplaced or otherwise irrelevant topics that keep getting put into the Site Feedback and questions forum. I'm thinking that part of this problem is that the word questions is pretty apparant. It might be that this particular word draws new users looking for a quick BIOS or PS2 fix.

I suppose it comes down to whether its easier/more desireable to change the name, or whether its easier to lock down or move each misplaced thread.

Thought I'd share.

yeah, i guess people think it's a forum for 1. site feedback and 2. questions (any old questions). not realizing that it's for the feedback and questions of and relating to this site.

i dont know if a name change will stop it, after all there are people posting for PCSX2 help in the PSX section, ePSXe help under "Game Discussion", etc etc. but i do see your point.
