    But i didn't see much change by this...

    The newbies still make mistakes in posting in right section, probably because they are confused where to post it...

    At least they have had a warning. Maybe they won't complain as much when they get an infraction.

    Will definetly help me, a lot of the times i have a lot of tabs open and i mistakenly make a new thread in the wrong one ;)

    OFC this will only make a difference until we get used to it, once we get used to it well check that box without even noticing :p At which point Shawn will have to change that to a visual confirmation box that we have to fill in, lol

    That should only be there for people with less than a certian number of posts, like 100. I'm guessing it's the n00bies, er I mean newbies that make most of da threads that get posted on da wrong board!!! :D:D

    I like this new feature although it might mislead some

    they might think that their posting rights have been disabled !!!

    Uhm you gotta be really stupid to think that... its not like the notice DOES NOT stand out :/

    But since some people ARE stupid, it could be a good idea that shawn placed the notice in a RED box, if they miss it then they are color blind or just really really dumb :p

    i wasn't reffering to myself, geek :p

    but still there is a fact that DP might be the first forum to some and first vBulletin to others ;)
