Because if you create a forum for every little interest that users think they want, you end up with 300 forums, each with only one or two threads. It's a great way to kill off a board.

Pets are part of life. They're also a general topic. So you have two forums right there you can post your pet questions in. General and Living.

I'll flip the question around on you. Why so much resistance to posting pet topics in the general/living forums? When you get right down to it, what real difference does it make HOW the TFP categorizes something? It'll still show up in new posts when you write something about pets, even if you write it in the Motors forum. People will see it, and will probably reply.

It's quite easy really. If there isn't a specific forum dedicated to your topic, stick it in General.
