With all the time spent moving threads this could have happened a long time ago. I will try to work on this too.
Whether or not you keep moving threads the same old questions will keep coming up in the coupe or sedan or whatever section because the previous one with the answers will move to the bottom then the next page and so on until the next new member asks again.
Lets try this and maybe help everyone.
People will continue to post stuff in the wrong section. I may do it from time to time to make sure the right traffic sees it. If you want to give it a short life and move it, go ahead. I have realized this is a loosing battle and will admit whether or not I like it there is some benefit.
Hell make me a mod and I will try to get started on the sticky threads. I'm not just trying to make more work for you.

We'll try it out for a while, and depending on it's effectiveness, I plan on doing the same to the various subsections in the tech area.
When some one posts a question that is addressed in the FAQ, I will do my best to respond with a link to the FAQ, and I will close the thread.

Please don't be dissing any of your fellow members not to mention a Y/L.
This is a discussion. If you don't like the way the discussion is flowing then lurk.
Manners pleeze.

Um yeah, when you said you "catch pretty much everyone". Yeah. Immediately I thought "really? That just blows my theory away!" 
Please. Keep your credit. You need it to buy a sarcasm detector

I'll let the thread simmer for a week, then I'll put it together in a FAQ and sticky it.

It something goes too far afield, I'll recommend that the posters take it elsewhere, or if the topic is too controversial, the item be removed from the FAQ altogether.

And because I had to explain this the first time, I'll assume this will be misunderstood as it pertains to police not catching every speeder.
So exchange "police not catching every speeder" to "mods not catching every OT post".

There are WAY too many sub forums within this site. The way it was prior to moving posts worked far better. The G35 sedan and G35 coupe owners are two entirely different groups of owners and their questions/interests are usually entire different. Splitting things up to sub forums is a good idea, but this site has taken it to the extreme. There doesn't need to be 6 different forums regarding modifications. It can simply be naturally aspirated and forced induction. Same goes for just about every other sub forum. I've never seen a site so micromanaged. Maxima.org has about 25,000 members and is much larger than this site and that site is far easier to use and find the information you need because they use a lot of stickies embedded into far fewer sub forums.
