Is anyone else having this issue - the link to this forum is not availbale for me from the main page, and board index.
yeap. maybe that is the intention until the change on the 28? 
Kind of confusing thorught…
Have you tried clicking on the Cubase 7 forum link? (Pretend you don’t see that locked symbol) The locked symbol just means you can’t post threads DIRECTLY in the C7 forum. You can post in the Sub-forums within C7 forum (i.e. General, Misc., Issues, FR, etc.)

Ok, got it now.
Board index‹ Cubase ‹ English ‹ Cubase 7 | Cubase Artist 7 ‹ General
Please use the other Cubase 7 sub-forums for new threads.
What Cubase 7 sub-forums?
The ones above General…
So, if you are having performance issues, or if you need to know how to route something, or if you have a bug report… that all goes in ‘Miscellaneous’? That’s odd…
Or General…
No
This one will be locked on June 28th!
Feel free to use it until then. Today is 4 June. After that, use Miscellaneous. Aren’t General and Miscellaneous pretty much the same thing?
I originally asked if that all goes in ‘Miscellaneous’ - which I find odd. I never said I thought there was a difference between General and Miscellaneous.
Oddly enough 
Its all a bit screwy really…
I don’t think so. I think bug reports go to :
Cubase ‹ English ‹ Cubase 7 | Cubase Artist 7 ‹ Collected Issues ‹ Issue Reports
IMO this C7 forum structure is a big mess.
Aren’t General and Miscellaneous pretty much the same thing?
According to a few online dictionaries…yes they are.
Because Steinberg had originally set up the General forum as something that would be viewed upon entering the Cubase 7 Forum, the general (or is that miscellaneous?) public could view those posts immediately upon landing in the Cubase 7 forum.
It has been my opinion that the Miscellaneous sub-forum was set up as place to dump the umm…more editorial posts from immediate view without the appearance of any heavy-handed censorship.
I like to think of the Miscellaneous sub-forum as Darwins Waiting Room.
