Are the forum categories that difficult to understand?

Are the newbies even more stupid than we were when we first joined?

Should 'Issues' be removed from the title as it obviously confusing people as to what issues are meant to be discussed here!

Am I getting intolerant in my old age?

Also: Why is biking news & issues turning into Forum Feedback and Help, mk?

Wink

It's always been the case, I'm afraid; first one on the list; if you look at the sort that posts here, tends to be those that don't like reading one would presume.

I'm no computer wiz so don't knock me.
Would the listings work better if 'New Bikers' topped the list, closely followed by 'Workshop' and with each of them given a slightly larger header?

Actually, I posted it there so people would see it before they posted their bike woes in that forum. But hey ho, it's now relegated to the musty cobwebbed area of forum help, where of course everyone goes Rolling Eyes

The first post in that section:
Important: Rules & Guidelines for posting on BCF


Doesn't seem to help, really, unfortunately.

Herrro.

I actually agree, we might as well put Workshop first and re-title it HELP ME BITCHES. Wink

Might as well title it "Biking News and Problems With Your Derbi or Gilera". Wink

Or how about just re-titling it "Biking News"? The "Issues" might be confuddling the pedbois.
