Forums: Select subforum when posting new topic.
So it's come about several times that after actually writing something I've realized that it probably belongs in a different subforum than the one I originally intended it for. So I have to pull up a new window in that sub-forum and c/p my post & topic over. Just thought a function like this would find general posting will end up where it belongs more often because though I take the time to correct myself it seems some may be lazier than others. Each subforum might produce a description next to the selection so that newer players might find deciding where their post belongs easier.

I don't see the changing as being a problem, sounds like it would be awkward and bloated.
As for the subforums having descriptions... they already do?

Re: its plausible
It's really the other way around. I'm a lot less organized and efficient 'sober' than stoned. I'm much too quick to keep up with myself half the time. I'll be sure to take care of this ASAP.Jackard wrote: ahh

Re: Forums: Select subforum when posting new topic.
well putting the subforum description in would be pretty trivial, not sure about the dropdown, it's been a while since i looked at any phpbb code
