I have been saying this forever. We have got to clamp down non gaming related shit in the 4 gaming forums. Thats includes sales AS A FORUM ALREADY EXIST FOR THAT. This site is a mess from top to bottom. Alot of things can be done to make sure there is a place for everything not just some cluster fuck.

You cant change people unless you go to the extreme and ban them. The most you can do in this situation is have a moderator who will be responsible to transfer/move topics to the correct forum.

There's other sections for other stuff but they should make a Electronics Discussion forum for stuff like TVs imo unless they are ok with seeing those topics in General.

"You cant change people unless you go to the extreme and ban them."
I agree, and think a ban it too extreme. It's too bad that the mods cannot revoke a user's ability to create new threads, or simply lock them out from creating new threads for a period of time.

"The most you can do in this situation is have a moderator who will be responsible to transfer/move topics to the correct forum."
Locking the thread, with a message stating why it was locked would be more effective than moving topics, I think. It forces the user to learn from their mistake.
