When they have "Moved" next to them, they're called "shadows", it shows people that their thread has been moved to the appropriate room for a number of reasons:

1. Admin are tidying the site up to make it more user friendly.
2. We're trying to get people to use the WHOLE site, to help everyone in the long run.
3. The shadows will be left for a while until people get used to it, so they don't think their posts have just been deleted and subsequently make useless posts asking where the original ones went.
4. Clicking on the links with "moved" next to them, takes you to the room the thread was moved to. We're hoping it'll help people get used to going around the site rather than posting eveything in GD.

Hope this helps

Depends on the topic

technical questions are getting moved from the g.d. room i think thats a silly thing to do as g.d. is the most used room and more people would answer if left in g.d.

User friendly...

Less rooms...

More in general where everybody reads...

Simple init....

Just because its motorsport related...

Its a FUCKING CAR FORUM SO MOST THINGS IN GENERAL WILL BE MOTORSPORT RELATED FFS.....

If this carries on there will be nothing in GD as theres that many rooms every post will be getting moved. I posted last night about getting a quad that then got moved into motorcycle or something which I didnt even know existed, got about 20 views in 24hrs, if it had been left in here im sure id have got a few more replies which is what everyone else knows already. You only have to look at the list of users browsing at the top to see no-one uses the other rooms, bar maybe the muppet room. You can try too hard mods and thats what ruins the place. Getting so much like the RSOC BB of days of old its uncanny

The mods are doing a great job, keep it up fellas.

At this rate, people may actually realise that the most knowledgable people actually frequent and reply in the correct rooms. lol.

Its easier for me to sit in one room and refresh it every now and then
rather than having to keep jumping round 20 rooms.

Just my 2p but as you are no longer admin I guess your the wrong person
to moan at LOL.

PassionFord started because Gizmo took RSOCbb offline in a hissy fit. That was in April 2003 and PF started towards the end of May 2003.

Nothing to do with modding....

Stu see my post about the IT dept on pf knowing not what they're doing regarding IT and performance of an expensive subscription site.

Maybe PF needs a real server that works or an ISP that has BANDWIDTH...

i know exactly what im talking about stu, i know why and when everyone from rsoc started here, i was one of them lol you were before me stu! you were asking people over here! or do i not know what i'm remembering about

gizmo shutting the bbs in a hissy fit is exactly my point. its no different from power hungry jobsworths pointlessly moving stuff imo. someone with a little bit of power trying to show they have it lol
