Rename the Help and Feedback Forum

Recommended Posts

I think that just like the LensWork Forum, the Help and Feedback forum

needs to be renamed to reflect that nature of this board. Currently

in the Unified view there are at least three messages under the Help

and Feedback rubrick that have nothing to do with photo.net as a web

site and have everything to do with which equipment to buy or how to

print negatives.

 

Perhaps a renaming to "photo.net Web Site Help and Feedback"? Or

"Help and Feedback for Administration of photo.net"? Those are

probably too long but you get my point (I hope).

 

I know it's probably being anal-retentive to ask this, but LensWork

went though the same issues and renamed. I don't think they've had

nearly as many unrelated messages since the change.

I will also add that I view the posts to "Help and Feedback" as honest mistake by those that are new to photo.net. The real problem is more that non-web site related questions won't be answered. I'd be willing to bet there are far fewer people reading "Help and Feedback" than read the general, unarchived forum, leading to a disservice to those that ask the question.

Well, I don't know. When you go to post a question in that forum it says:<p>

"This forum is for questions, suggestions, criticisms, complaints, or just comments on the photo.net site itself, its user interface, and its mechanics.

 

"It [this] is not a general Help forum. If your question relates to photography, camera equipment, etc, please place it in another forum. If your question relates to photo.net itself, this is the right place." <p>

You can't be any more specific than that. OK, what the heck, rename it to <u>Photo.net Help and Feedback</u> but I don't think it will help the brain dead who don't bother to read instructions.
