Is it normal I can post a forum topic in the category "none"? When a user do this, his message appear nowhere since it's in no category!

Make sure the forums' vocabulary is set to be 'required'. The 'none' option will disappear.

That's it! Thanks a lot. It wasn't set to "required" because I didn't understand what it would do. You shoud add this information to the page about forum creation : http://drupal.org/node/1151

Yeah thanks! I had the same question, and this was the only place I was able to find the answer, and only after searching on Google.

Also, I had totally misunderstood what the "required" option meant. The way it's currently worded:

If enabled, every node must have at least one term in this vocabulary.

I thought it meant that checking the box would require *every* node (of any vocabulary type) to contain a term from the "Discussion Topics" vocabulary, not that every "Discussion Topics" node required a term from the "Discussion Topics" vocabulary.

Perhaps change the description to:

If enabled, every node in this vocabulary must have at least one term.

I think that is more clear.
