I wish there were more forums on this site

I find there are not nearly as many forums on this site as there are on WP, and I get frustrated because there are things I want to post but I don't know if it's the "right" place to post them. On WP if you post something they feel isn't in the right forum it gets moved to a more appropriate one. Maybe it's because Autism Forums hasn't been around as long as WP or I haven't been on Autism Forums as long and I'm not used to the differences, but I don't really know.

What's the worst that's likely to happen over a misplaced posting?

The mods will just move it.

So...post away and don't fret over such protocol concerns.

This staff also does exactly what WP does with threads on a daily basis, so I don't see the difference.
If it isn't in the correct area when posted, it will get corrected.

If we made too many places to post items, it would be next to impossible to find them because of how far they would get spread out.
 
I wish I had a goose that laid solid gold eggs. Then I would gain about $100,000.00 every morning. Who needs more forums when you got golden eggs.

(This calculation is a few years old. Gold value is a bit less at the moment)

Goose egg ~150 cm3 volume.

Gold ~19.32 g/cm3

Mass of gold in egg = 150 cm3 x 19.32 g/cm3 ~ 2898 g

Current gold price ~$39.43/g

2898 g x $39.43/g ~ $114268
 
I've had a similar concern about it being in the wrong place and decided to just not post it at all, but I was more worried that it didn't belong anywhere and was inappropriate than that it would just be moved. If I wanted to just complain about something because I'm freaking out or something, would that go under off-topic? I'm only guessing that because I just saw someone do that; before that, I had no idea.
