i'd like to make a suggestion if i may, i think this forum has got some great information in it but it seems like a labyrinth to browse.

there are so many forums sub divided into every possible permutation of this and that, its too much. IMHO.

if i want to read a thread and i know the topic exactly i will do a search. when i don't know what to read but have a general idea i will browse and might see an interesting sounding topic, then i will go and read it.

but when there are so many sub forums, browsing feels more of a chore.

the other thing, the index page is like the table of contents of the forum. i use it for starting the browse. its also the main entry point of the forum.

I like the forum descriptions in that they are entertaining and descriptive but they are too long and clutter up the space. maybe reduce them to one line or don't use it if they are self explanatory.

readers would get more navigation options on their screen, making it easier to find some forum they are after.



rant over.
