Default RE: how about LESS forums?

Nick,

We have a MyForums feature here in SETTINGS area that you can use to set to view ONLY the forums you want to see. Then when you click the MYforums button it will show you only those on the homepage, jump list and when you get new posts in that mode only new posts from your forums.

Balancing too many or too few forums is THE most challenging part of running a community site. We try to do our best to not over or under segregate things. I'm sure at times we have under/over shot this in various areas and we do readjust when mistakes are clearly apparent.

Your suggestion to combine electric with our regular ones is very interesting and we have thought about this. It may be something we do but it is a major move and not reversible unless I can think of a programming hack to combine forum views where say electric gliders can be its own forum BUT also the posts from there are seen in the regular glider forum.

LMK your thoughts
