General Discussion, why do we need it?

We start threads on here about stuff, a lot of people view the thread and post to it, then it gets moved to the General Discussion section, to die?

What good is the General Discussion section? Who checks it out once the thread is moved from here? I don't go there ..

Not just saying this because of my thread being moved. I see stuff on here then come back to here at a later time and it's gone.

I agree, I think we should advise the mods to stop moving them I find it unproductive.

I have some stray cats roaming around my shop. I wonder if I should start a thread about it in the Lightning section...j/k

Besides doesn't Raoul post there? Maybe they made that section just for him. I have'nt seen him post in the Lightning section lately.

Thumbs up Re: General Discussion, why do we need it?

I agree. The General Discussion Forum should go.
I have posted there about 3,000 times and with other posters have racked up about 125,000 posts.

If it was gone, me and my toothless friends could post in the Lightning Forum instead.

This post is not Lightning related and should be moved to General discussion

I am guilty of posting most of my posts here.. even the no Lightning related posts. I feel that because I have a Lightning then everything I post is L related

OH, I see.. since you don't look at other forums on this board, that means nobody should read the other forums?

lets see... this is F150online.com, NOT lightning.com

there are several different kinds of 97 and up F150's that are discussed on this board.
the general discussion forum is for stuff that is not related to any of the other forums on this board.

you should check out general discussion, there's some good stuff in there from time to time..

Doug, do you deal with this all the time in the L forum? I can't even believe that someone would ask something like this... not to sound 'Holier than thou' but, how absurd is this topic?

I've lost valuable time from my life reading this... wait a minute, I've lost many more valuable moments down in General Discussions...

Ahh, what the hell, I think I'm going to go down there and be 'unproductive'...

Good lord... LOL

btw, GREAT reply clonetek.
