Since it is a general forum, we are adding tons of new categories and subcategories every day and would really want to disable these automatic Category Definition posts as we don’t need them. We can’t seem to find a delete option for them, so the only way to do it is to flag, review and delete from there. It just gets annoying when there are over 200 new subcategories every day. Any tips on how to disable these?
