What if my post fits the description of multiple categories?
- Look at the main idea of your topic, and use that to answer the questions again.
Example: Your post is titled "Raze 3 Walkthrough". You are thinking, yes it's a flash game, so it should go in the Flash Game section. Then again, it's a walkthrough, so it could also belong to the Walkthrough category. The answer is that it belongs to the Walkthrough Category because the aim of the post is to be a walkthrough for people to use.
How can I know for sure that what I am posting is in the right category?
- You may take a look at the other posts in the Category to see if your post is similar to the others.
- You may ask a moderator/admin in advance.
Just to make sure everyone knows where what belongs where! Have a legendary day!
