Posting in Respective Parts of the Forum

Over the past several months, I have wondered why certain threads get moved and some don’t. For example, some Incoming threads for other watches that are posted on the Rolex General Discussion are moved to the respective discussion forum; while other posts that involve other watches in the Rolex General Discussion forum under the “What Are You Wearing Today” threads are allowed.

Please keep in mind, my inquiry is not to offend anyone, but simply to receive some clarity on this matter. Should posts related to a specific brand such as AP or Omega, not be posted in the AP or Omega General Discussion Forum? This would include members posting different watches in the WRUW thread in the Rolex General Discussion.

I'm not offended in the least, but I am curious as to why it matters? Is it a perceived lack of consistency by the Mods (who are only human BTW) or favoritism? Or do you think you're not quite understanding the rules?

Yup, though the WRUW thing can be forgiven, providing it starts with a Rolex.

The WRUW threads clearly incorporate watches from many different and varied brands......therefore the idea that this thread should be moved for every different brand posted is clearly an impossible task. As such, I have absolutely no issue with this very general thread being posted in the main Rolex General Forum.......

There is only one answer: Dissent moderators and I hate to see them unemployed, therefore I post here and there.
