OK, I'm a bit confused here. I could just as easily say "well, I'm not
interested in houses at all, so they should post only to .town since there's
a town newsgroup." Or apply the sentiment to anything I'm not interested in.
So why would it be ok for someone to post, say, a house MOC and its entire
subsequent thread in .build, but not a mecha? Sure, mecha has its own
category, but houses could be posted to .town, couldn't they?
Where's the distinction here?
