Which better describes this thread (the one we are in right now)?

General discussion about the Bitcoin ecosystem that doesn't fit better elsewhere. News, the Bitcoin community, innovations, the general environment, etc. Discussion of specific Bitcoin-related services usually belongs in other sections.

or

Discussion about the Bitcoin Forum

You are one of the worst offenders when it comes to placing threads in the wrong forum. Not only are you bad at it, but then you bitch about it when threads are place in their proper location! This thread belongs in "Meta".

John K. ran an escrow service. The thread asking about him was specifically about his escrow service.

Let's review.

Hmm...? Should I place a thread asking about John K.'s escrow service in "Bitcoin Discussion"?

NO!

I don't give a shit about John K. or his escrow service so why would I want to have to see posts about that in "Bitcoin Discussion" which is for "General discussion about the Bitcoin ecosystem that doesn't fit better elsewhere"?

Sheesh.

Edit: Imagine that, this thread has been moved to "Meta". Shocker!

The last sentence is the key.

He ran an escrow service, so service discussion. This isn't hard.
