If NWS stuff comes up on the front page it is obviously not in the right section for one instance, or 2, shouldn't be on a car forum....

If there is something I have missed, please u2u me, and I will move it to the right section, or whatever.....

NWS?

If your allowed to use the forum at work how can any posts be NWS?
Surely if its NWS then you should wait to get home before doing NOT WORK STUFF.

if she had her rat out then fair enough, but there's nothing NWS there!
as said, if thats deemed not safe for you at work, well, you should be doing work

also, as a bond girl, she was unlikely to be dressed as a librarian the topic heading should have been enough

don't write OT on a new thread title, you're creating the topic, everything you write is very much ON topic!

Whilst it's nice to see NWS on posts, the actual issue here is that it should have been in Mad House and thus not shown up on the front page. People who work in sensitive places then just need to avoid Mad House and they won't have a problem.

Before Mad House existed this sort of stuff went in Anything Else, now that we have Mad House the misc crap seems to get split between the two even though Anything Else is supposed to be for CAR STUFF ONLY. Maybe the forum should be renamed Anything Else Car Related or similar to avoid confusion so we don't have this issue cropping up every few weeks.

P.S. agree with the above, whether there's any 'naughty bits' showing or not is irrelevant, from the other side of an office it looks like porn either way!

I don't think that it is a question that anyone on here is prude, although it would not offend me it may offend someone else walking by. The issue I think is not what has been posted but actually where on the forum it has been posted.

^^^^ Exactly as Matt and Pete have said, and that is how I explained it to the OP.......

I have had so much stuff that I have had to move of late, I sometimes think that people just don't read the headings of the forums before they post....

As most of you are aware, I have had my hands full following the fire that spread to our unit/workshop a while back.
We have a new one but what with insurance companies/loss adjustors, and having the dreadful job of having to purchase lots of new workshop equipment.... well...... need I say more?....

My request for a 50 hour day instead of the usual 24 hour day, has been flatly refused..

So although I am 'here' (voluntary) at various times of the day, posts in the wrong forum only have my 90% attention.... normal service will be resumed very soon!

Until then, as said before, anything obviously wrong, please u2u me......I will see it, reply to you and sort out

Fozzie

I always thought "mad house" was for off the wall non serious jokes, links etc.

Until it was pointed out, I didn't note that "Anything else" was for car stuff only.

Part of the entertainment value of the site is reading the various post people make about serious, but non car stuff - asking advice etc. Do we need a seperate section for off car topic threads, but that are not "fluff"?

Cheers

You can do it quickly. You can do it cheap. You can do it right. – Pick any two.
