I've started some thread moves lately and in order to make life easier on all of us I want to clarify what
Off Topic
means.
Some have asked for help with a competitor product, or posted serious threads about competitor business moves or practices. These are definitely topical and go under
Devices/Competitors
.
Today someone asked why the N86 got an update but not the N900. A perfect fit for
Devices/Nokia N900
.
These are just a couple of examples but hopefully the idea comes across. Think about the goal of your post and where it might find the best audience, especially if you're seeking assistance.
Off Topic
is the appropriate place for philosophy, social subjects, jokes, odd/interesting news and activities that don't fit under more specific business or technical sections-- including anything poking fun at competitors. So consider the context of your initial post and find the best fit for it. We will all benefit.
Thanks!
And speaking of Thanks: that feature is not implemented here. Along similar lines, posts here do not contribute to your post count.
EDIT: and feel free to ask questions in this thread!
