Any reason my (car related post) has been moved to the focus section? Yes I put focus in the title but I put it in general CAR related discussion so more people would see it.

Thanks

If you look at the description for the General car related discussion it states this

"To discuss anything that is related to cars and automotive technology that doesnt naturally fit into another forum catagory."

Therefore your specific question about a Focus was moved to the Focus section where it should have been put originally.

If every thread was posted in the GD sections what would be the point of the model specific sections plus the thread would have disappeared almost immediately onto page 2 and beyond.

I and the other Mods move them when we see them.

Feel free to report the threads youre referring to and the Mod team will see that they get moved to the correct section.

if everything went into one area then the turnover of the page would be huge, i can understand your questioning about it and also why it was moved. at least in the car specific forum someone might think oh yeah that could be ...
where as in gd it could just goto page 2 with no replies and then have to bump it back up, that moves another thread off into page 2 then the poster bumps that,
if everyone did that then it would be chaos and people would complain about how threads need constant btt to be seen.
