This thread: Is this the most unflattering product photo or what? - In My Humble Opinion - Straight Dope Message Board was moved to “Marketplace” because, as the PM I received said, “Just wanted to let you know that I’ve moved your thread about the CafePress T-shirt to our Marketplace forum. That’s the place for discussing and touting one’s merchandise.”
I’m not discussing or touting my merchandise in that thread. I was very specifically careful to not mention my products nor link to them in any way. The thread is about whether a product preview at a certain website is ugly enough to turn off potential buyers or not–it has nothing to do with anything I’m selling. I believe the forum change was wrong.
