Too many forums!!!

This is the downfall with most boards: too many seperate forums
We dont need a forum for every single little thing, its ok to have a few specific topics in a general forum

It makes the frontpage look cluttered and you miss more threads because theyre dispersed amongst lots of forums

My 2 cents

I think the forum is nicely seperated, I have been able to get quite a lot of information from it and it hasn't been difficult for me, what specifically do you mean?

Just use the 'New Posts' button at the top to keep up to date like the rest of us. No more problem.

Awe dude! I've gone to this board at least a dozen time's a day for last year or so, I've always just looked at the first page and the new post there, I never knew about the "New Post" button! Man, is my face red!

I believe the forum is well organized. I can go to whatever section I need and find
my answers. This is a technical forum, with technical topics. Not someplace to
just go and bull****.

I thinkt he topics are about right. some forums are a mess. Although i rarely venture into the software section - that scares me and the GPS as that is least of my worries at the moment. Fabrication, Off topic and show off you project are my favourites!

I agree as well. having all the extra topics makes it even easier to search as well, because you can search all the subforums instead of searching the whole board.

I think it's fine the way it is. There is so much info here that if you didn't split it up into the forums we have you would never find anything.

How about having an Alt-OS section under software? That would get rid of the two MAC and Linux sections.

Don't listen to what he says.

Or you could have a forum for OS's and then a sub section in there or each of the OS, Windows, Linux, Mac.
