What are child forums?

[KRSplat]

In search, there is an option to include child forums under the box used to select what forums you are searching. What are these child forums?

[Radium]

Those are the forums you leave your children in when entering some dangerous place like the Misc forum. They have a nice playpen and toys in them, along with a kind old caretaker who gives the kids cookies.

I don't think anyone here has children.

They are subforums. The new VB supports the option to have forums within forums. "Child forums" is simply a more elegant way of saying that. The option is useless on the JCF, though; there are no child forums.
