Two problems
Two problems here that really frustrae me . . . .
1) In the old world, you could set sub groups in your forum list. Now, that appears to be impossoble. For instance, I would like to select the JR support forum, but NOT the general radio/servo forum above it, and your current slection scheme will not allow it.
2) I would like to be able to deseelct the RCUniverse support forum from "My Forums". If I need support, I will go there, otherwise, it is just more useless noise to sort through.
I really like to be able to limit what I see to JUST those topics of interest to me, and that capability appears to have changed for the worse with the upgrade. Any ideas/insignts?

Tim,
The forums have parent child relationships. You can see only the forums you want to see but you must see the parent forums along with it as you noticed (at least for now..this may change in a later release)
Number 2 question: we are working on allowing deselection of the support forums. you aren't the first to ask for this.
your last comment. I don't understand what you mean there. the myforums limits everything to what you are interested in. choose forums, click myforums, click new posts and see only the new posts from your chosen forums.

RE: Two problems
My last comment relates to issue #1. When I select a sub-forum with minimal traffic, like the JR support forum, I get riploads of stuff from the parent forums that I don't want to see. In "My Forums", it shows you stuff cronologically, so I have to wade through everything to see what I want, which is a pain. The old system did not require this, and I personally feel that this is a feature that should be restored, or, barring that, eliminate sub-forums, and make everythihg top-level, with no discussions in the parent, so that the behaviour is the same.
