That thread wasn't started in the AOB forum IIRC, it was a normal thread and was
a breach of the forum rules if memory serves correctly. 

Rules are not immutable of course, so I'll perhaps look at changing the rule to
have threads of this topic simply moved over and left open.

All of this is a bit of an experiment really. 

The forums aren't setup as a discussion forum, they're focused very tightly on
specific support requests (partly because this mailing list exists and people
can have the wider discussion here so there's not a huge push for it from folks
over there) so I'll just have to keep testing and adjusting.
