People not looking at Stickies first.
I posted my greeting here because I saw that as the trend, and actually did not see the OT forum.
Maybe put the Greeting area at the Top?
The way I have my Forums set up is that a new user recieves a Welcome email after they register which this site does. However under the greeting is a line "Please come and introduce your self here" with the URL.
There is also an auto PM sent to New users asking them to introduce them selves in a specific url..... Some people do not read any emails after their verification email.
My understanding is this:
A thread "I just got a New Camaro...here are some pictures" would go in General Camaro Area.
A thread "I love Bacon" would go in OffTopic.
A thread with pictures of a 2013 Z-28 would go in the spyshots area.
I apologize if I have breached any protocols.

It's cool dude. No one's gonna be mad at ya
If you don't know where to post your new topic, then just post it wherever you think it goes. If you were wrong then the mods will take care of it. Thats what they're here for.
And even when they do move a thread don't get upset. It's nothing personal and they aren't silently scolding you for posting in the wrong section. They're just doing their job to try and keep this site as organized as possible. Besides, even when it is moved it still shows up in the original section you posted in.
No worries
