    I started a thread on Jan 3rd in "Content Creation" forum looking for forum posters and even yesterday we had a little debate but when I logged in now I saw an infraction in my CP saying the thread's in the wrong forum. So I went like "what the hell?" and checked my thread and it was in the "Freebies" forum.

    Now can anyone tell me what's going on? I don't have enough rights to move my thread and I don't know why would any of the mods move it to an unappropriate section but something must happened because my thread was in the "Content Creation" forum for 6 days and now it's in the "Freebies".

    Care to explain?

    How do I know who's the mod around here? I thought starting a thread here will do the job.

    It's a grey area really. Forum posting is unarguably content creation, but GFC announced a month or so ago that low money deals were to go in Freebies. If it was me I would have given you a yellow warning and a note of explanation. Discretion it's called.

    The admin really need to rename the freebies forum and/or make it a bit more clear that PAID services go in there. IMHO, content creation threads for money should go in content creation, unless it's just someone asking for posters.

    While I can respect the reasoning behind the changes taking place and the issues with iTrader, but honestly, the board names are misleading, and it'll take more then just a sticky thread to make things right. Maybe warnings should be given out rather then infractions till it's obvious that it's the wrong section...

    As stated above

    Anything $5.00 or Lower Belongs in the Freebies Forum

    Infractions are warnings. One would need ten of these in a rather short period of time before suffering any consequences.

    People really need to learn to READ THE STICKIES before creating threads. ALL OF THEM!

    The stickies are not there for fun! :rolleyes:
