Don,

Maybe moving the topic to the bottom of the list would help, after "Chris-Craft Today". I don't think it would hurt, and it may actually make more sense there anyway. At the very least, maybe rename it something like "Using Boat Buzz" or "Issues Regarding Boat Buzz".

Bobby,

excellent suggestions.

I think what is happening is newer members see the "support" and think it's support for anything boat related.

I believe the original intent of the topic heading Boat Buzz Support was for technical question about the forum.

Yes, that's what it appears to be for, but as you said, people see "Boat" and "Support" and go right there with their boat-related questions. I think it even makes more sense now to be at the bottom, since it's only meant for technical questions or issues with the website itself.

Glad my input could help.

For sure!!

I can ask Matt to help with that. I've got no clue how to change it.

Talk to Matt Smith, if there is one thing he does really well it is header photos.

Don,

Maybe changing the title to "Using Boat Buzz" would eliminate the confusion, looks like people are still posting boat questions there. Maybe he found it via a search and just went into that area, but I still think changing the title would go a long way toward what you are trying to achieve.
