Now that you've posted it, it may as well be posted. Rules-wise, the public fora are all equivalent to each other, so the only reason to use a particular public forum is to make it easier for other people to find your posts. (There have been a few attempted scams in which people intentionally posted messages to the wrong public forum in the hope that the messages would be missed, but that tends to be self-defeating due to the Streisand Effect.) The general rule is that things go to -official if they're officer reports that help players understand the gamestate; if you want to know what the state of the game is at the moment, you can check through the reports in -official to find the one that describes what you want to know about. Individual voting posts aren't a very helpful form for that, so the Assessor will post a summary of all the votes for the record to -official once the voting period has ended, but the voting posts themselves go to -business. CFJs go to -business; a helpful rule for this is that if you want to take a game action but are doing so voluntarily (rather than because you have a duty to do so), it always goes to -business. (There's an exception for actions that are highly related to, and prompted by, a report; however, even posting those along with the report can be controversial.) -- ais523
