Feedback Why are scripting related posts moved from this forum?

The scripting forum is the forum that has the most high skilled and active community in the unity forums

Any thread in the scripting category is swiftly answered by a high skill coder

However, at the slightest hint that the post fits elsewhere, a mod rushes to take the post out and change it to another forum, sending the post to the shadow realm, where no one will ever reply

For example I had a question about scripting, on how to handle overriding methods using inheritance

I made the dumb mistake of mentioning what I was inheriting from (Scroll Rect) - THATS IT, to the gui forums you go

In the end I found the solution, and it was in my opinion related to scripting, it was just using "base." and "#if" "#endif", its something that if it had lingered in the scripting forum I have no doubt would have been swiftly answered by someone

My feedback is that being trigger happy with the forum changing will cause me on future problems to model my questions in a different way such that I do not absolutely mention UI/Mobile/etc at all, as this will just send the threads to the shadow realm, until now that thread still has no replies

If I had danced around my issue I would have gotten an answer, but I asked about my problem accurately and was penalized for doing so

Anyway, this is my feedback, of course I dont expect you to change your modding policies, just my 2 cents

 

Uhm ... wrong forum.
This would be more appropriate for General Discussions.

Maybe you just had bad luck. Maybe UI scripting does belong to the UI forum. Hard to say without seeing the original post. Nevertheless, mods have authority, and they may have their own agenda or just skim over posts and move them if a keyword triggers them to do so.

 

I want to be respectful and Im not challenging your authority to move posts

I will give you that the scroll bar one is more on the gray area, even though I also resolved that issue using scripting only by implementing the interface "IScrollHandler"

I completely understand that there are many people who post on incorrect forums, just sharing my experience, its not my intent to criticize how you operate

 

fair enough, i thought that everything that is handled by script would count as scripting (for example all things that are not solved just by changing components in the inspector), thats my ignorance

 

good weekend to you aswell, I never intended to say that it was out of malice or bad intentions, it must be hard to mod with so many people posting all the time, thanks
