I've made thread prefixes mandatory now. This means when you create a new thread, you need to select which category it is.

If you think there is anything obvious missing from this, let me know and I'll add it.

The main reason for this is to allow people to quickly filter to the conversations they are interested in, using the filter at the top of the forum page. In many cases, this will be to find Albion-related threads and remove the rest of the stuff that they aren't interested in.

I know some will say that there is not always a single category and I agree. Just choose the most obvious based on your opening post. If a thread goes off at a completely different tangent, I will change the prefix as is appropriate.

(Those who object to this change and repeatedly choose the wrong prefix as some sort of protest, will find they lose their ability to start new threads)

Categories: Health, work
Filtering: useful to filter in/out multiple categories, e.g. I'm not interested in politics
However, I'll probably not filter and so showing prefix against each thread on list would be useful because titles often mislead, e.g. 'Murray' could mean that Scottish bloke

Looking forward to seeing how many get incorrectly flagged, or fishing attempts that are deliberately incorrectly flagged :)

"Flounce", "Jamie" and "Jam Viscosity" all seem to have been neglected
