Generally speaking, the OT forum is for non-heli related questions, to share a laugh, to share a tip, to seek advice, but not for mindless chatter.

This keeps the cr@p away from the other forums which are for Heli-related topics.

Please don't try and compare sites, as everyone has their favourites, and Stuart has built a great site that co-exists with the other sites too.

Each forum/community operates in a slightly different way, and those differences should be retained.

ie. There are micro-heli communities, 3d-flying communities, scale-heli communities, regional-communites

Those communities co-exist with RCHeliAddict and also within RcHeliAddict.

Agree with kiwipilot - but it appears if you post on off topic forum it comes up on the Main Discussion at the moment - or have I got it wrong ???

Dave the block on the front page lists ALL new topics regardless of where its posted.

Now, what I can look into is filtering out the "Off Topics", so that it will only show that that are as we may call True Rc Heli related.

I personally think that's a bit of a shame as its a bit like censorship, free choice and free decisions I prefer.

yeah stu leave things as they are, let other forums do the big brother thing

I like things just as they are - my comment was just that - i didn't know that all post showed on the home page.
Why apparently have different forums if they really aren't separate.

i could not work that one out either,but i think it should remain as it is,that way the last post on a specified thread is always available at a glance. :)
