Is The "Test" Forum Section For Introductions?

5 replies
I've noticed many people in the test forum, introducing themselves as if it's the designated place to do that. Am I missing something or has the test area been designated as an area to say, Hi I am new to this forum?

I've also noticed LOTS of spammy posts there, that are super obvious.

    I also new, I searched for the Introduction section but I didn't find it. So I didn't introduce myself till I found a thread about it in the general talk section.

      Honestly, I have no idea where and if there is a section to introduce yourself?

    The test forum is just what the name implies. It's an area to test how a post will look before you put it on the section you plan to post it. Many people use it to format their WSO or other paid offers so that everything is formatted correctly and all links and images are in place.

      Thats what I thought also........

      But people are using it to introduce themselves and for spam posts.

      I dont think you need to test an introduction of yourself, lol!

    There is an "off topic" forum you can use for introductions.
