"I do not appreciate when on very rare occasion people choose a topic button that they clearly know is incorrect to force an off topic post to a forum that it does not belong."
Hey Robert,
As a party who is loosely guilty of the aforementioned offense (i.e.- the 2011 Holiday Party thread was posted in Super and not Imperial, though I did make it clear that it was a one-time post so that ALL members could see it), I would like to humbly ask that some reconsideration of forum divisions be entertained. A party like ours would be expected to be in a more general forum like Super (other appliances and all things about the home), and not a seemingly pigeon-holed forum like Imperial where the division is washers, dryers and dishwashers more than 20 years old.
Super has seemed to me to be a more general catch-all forum that may or may not include posts about appliances. Certainly not for things that may be controversial (which is why you gave us DL), but for things that may not fit into appliance-specific forums. Yes, we currently have ATTT for this, but it's a members only forum.
I guess the question is, since it's Automatic Washer dot Org, should all posts concerning appliances and their use (i.e.- recipes) be in the current pink, blue and yellow forums, and anything else be in the pay-to-see green and brown? That's the way it appears to be now, and of course that's fine. But, and I ask gently, I've heard the group referred to so many times as a family that I would respectfully ask that a non-appliance-related forum be made available to the general membership so that things like general get-togethers can be announced to the entire group. This could be as simple as reviewing and changing the attributes of the Super forum.
Again, thanks for everything you've gone to great lengths to make available to us, and continued success!
Chuck
