It's a good idea, but like andy said, there are problems with having too many forums:
good: it keeps things organized (if people use them)
good: it makes it theoretically easier to find stuff (if people use them)
good: ok, ran out of good
bad: people don't use them
bad: people are lazy and dont read beyond the first board the come to
bad: there aren;t enough mods right now to move the suggestions back and forth and keep it organized.
bad: people don't use them
OK, so thats....2.5 good vs. 4 bad if my math is correct.
If you can convince me that there is an easy way to get people to use them (hell people have trouble just using the form) and to move stuff around once people prove too lazy to use the sub forums, then I'd be very interested, but until then, it's just more work that I dont think most people would use.
But yes, I agree, in theory it's a great idea. Shame theory and reality are so often so very different.
