It is better to just post in the section that best suits your question.
Because if it is not, your post will be moved, and will be mentioned on your thread anyway.
It is better to just take a second before posting to decide where the post should be in
the first place.
This makes it a lot easier on us moderators and makes the whole forum database better organized.
