    advice on anything. something like digital spy's advice forum. where anyone can go to post for advice. sometimes certain forums here don't have as much traffic as others do, and advice & discussion forums usually have a high level of traffic.

    I'm really struggling to understand exactly what you mean . .

    You post a topic or a question or suggestion and we'll tell you where to start a thread . . .

    There are LOADS of advice threads on this website!

    For example, you received plenty of advice when you asked for advice as to whether or not it would be cool to start a relationship with what appeared to be a vulnerable teenager when you are almost 30.

    now you say it, i suppose they are. however, it would be nice to have a forum dedicated to general life advice where people could post for advice about anything & everything.

    The Marriage, Relationships and Families Board is pretty general, and covers life advice, etc.

    But, as others have said, there is pretty much a board or thread that covers everything.

    Failing that, ask your question on here, then! :)

    Although it's generally considered unwise to post a benefits advice query in discussion time, unless you're feeling particularly robust.
    Choose your subforum with care.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Considering how many threads the OP has started on different boards, I think they know their way around the forum.

    Maybe we need a board where everyone agrees with the OP and they hear what they want to hear thus going away happy.
    Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed. ;)

    If you quote me, don't forget the capital 'M'
