We are in the process of de-cluttering the forums, we have allot of forums that have grown in the past...

There are so many rooms it can be a distraction for new members and probably a nightmare to navigate.

I will post soon a whole list of what has moved and where...

But starting with the general sections we have done the following.

Moved: Exams, adult, into the LIFESTYLE forums.

We have created a new prefix called Sensible Topic (this will replace posting in a sensible room), which means that all posts that have the prefix "Sensible Topic" follow the same rules as the sensible forum did (no thread spoiling etc).

Thank you.

If you are decluttering the forums, why do you have a rule that you must post 5 times before you can upload a file? I am now having to post 5 times before i can upload, causing 5 really unwanted posts before i can upload?

Do you mean upload or download?
If you read the rules. you will see you need 5 USEFUL posts...1 like and a 24hour wait.

Admin/mods will decide if the posts are useful or not...if they are not they will be removed...so you see your posts wont clutter up the forum if they are removed :)
It also gives the mods something to do when the mrs is watching eastenders and they cant have the tv remote ;).
The rules are there for a reason, its to encourage new users to stay around, enjoy the forum...give something back to the community instead of just taking a download never to be seen again.

Long standing members put there own time and effort into making the forum what it is...so should new members too.

If you cant wait or dont want to abide by the forum rules and you cant find your download elsewhere...then i suggest paying for a premium membership

The irony being that complaining about it just brings them to the attention of staff... 🙃
