Click on 'Search forum' and do a search. The search information caption should say "generaltalk/after report and child forums"

The term 'child' refers to the subforums in that forum. So the top forum is the parent and any subforum is a child. Same as folders and subfolders on your computer.
Are you just trolling?

My best guess would be it may have something to do with the children of WL ? Impact and experiences and / or advice about... LMAO ok i really cant think of anything that makes real sense why. Though one thing does come to mind as a programmer, it may be a planned descendant model of the forum structure that might have been build for some feature. Its child design based on this forum? I once named a temporary object "gay_shit_01 during design phase and actually had forgot to re name it and it made it through to the release version. Months later the company that i had made it for sent an official complaint to my boss lol. It may be developer lingo that got through QA.

Otherwise, dafuq !?!?

But of course it is exactly that.

Every relational data model has a parent/child structure.
Syd99 (Parent)
- Sydney - General talk (Child to Syd99 - Parent to anything under it)
- All posts under General Talk (Child to General talk)

Nothing what so ever to do with children.

Thanks for clearing that up! I have no background or knowledge of data models. I know parent folders but never ran into a 'child' reference before.

Guy with 1 post calls me a troll. Laugh out loud.
