I feel that "Bugs" and "Suggestions" need to be renamed to say "Mod Bugs" and "Mod Suggestions" respectively… There has been a more and more increasing number of people posting requests for programs and code in "Suggestions", when they should be in "General" and bugs in their code in "Bugs" when they should be in "Ask a Pro"

Thoughts?

Seems like a good idea…

Thanx… can figure out how to request it though… I think they have removed it :/

I'd assume you would just PM Cloudy.

I PMd Cruor and he sorted it out for me nice 'n fast :)/> (thanks Cruor). it seems the only way to get a custom title is a moderator setting it for you. I have checked the profile section and you cannot change it there so basically just check which moderator is on and ask them

So back to topic, what to any mods or Cloudy think about this suggestion?

I don't see a rename as being necessary, but perhaps an updated description for the two sections would help.

Yeh maybe even that… but I feel something needs to be done to address the issue…

I sometimes feel like people temporarily forget how to read when they decide to ask questions. In their eyes all the forum titles become "POST YOUR QUESTION HERE!11!". I agree with perhaps clarifying the names more or giving them a better description but I'm not sure that such will have any effect.

I do feel that changing the two stated in OP in that way would be best, but it all we get is a description change, then we accept what we get…

So is this still the case? :P/> never seemed to happen.
Granted we don't get many over time, but we did have another person today ask for a program in the suggestions section.

It'd be handy, but it is, of course, up to the administrative team to decide. I haven't heard anything suggesting that they're wanting to change them yet.
