Cross posting

[Mark]

As an experiment I'm trying out a new feature on the forums for a trial period.

When you start a new thread as well as posting it in the forum you are in, you can also choose a secondary forum for the thread to appear under. This could be useful if your topic potentially spans the interest of more than one forum.

I'm hoping that this will be used sensibly as if it is absued then the feature will be restricted to moderators only.

You can only choose a second forum when starting a new thread, however moderators are able to cross post any existing thread, please contact a moderator if you would like this done (or undone!)

I haven't been here for a bit to observe actions conducted on this forum, good or bad. Therefore, just so I don't accidently violate the policy here, is there any specific examples that you are able to illustrate ?

BTW - I was wondering about this subject since some drivers/teams/situations I refer to once in a while can be related to other forms of racing activities. Anyways, thanks for bring this up.



Additional note: Thanks guys (Mods) for a job well done (as always) in maintaining this forum.

I don't mind really as long as it does have a connection to both the forums you are posting in.

So say if Lewis Hamilton was doing an interview on Jonathan Ross on Friday night on BBC 2 would that be a good cross post?

Cross post to where? That would just be F1 right?

[Daniel]

Chit chat. A lot of F1 fans wouldn't want to look in the F1 forum

I thought cross posting was when someone wrote ENTIRELY IN CAPITALS LIKE THIS :

Or, similar to cross dressing, writing like a member of the opposite sex.. :

How about threads already posted before this notice, Who made the cross, It's the thread starter, Mods, or Mods upon the request?

Oh my post above because I am not quite diligent to observe back tiredly to threads started long time (a month or so) before. I tend to read posts from now onwards.

Sorry for my ignorance
