A suggestion

snoot had this idea last night and I think its worth a post. What if we took S&P, Mysticism and the Paranormal, and Mental and Physical Well-Being, and made them all sub-forums for a forum called Mind, Body, and Spirit or something like that.
This would serve to clean up the Main Index a little bit...of course the potential downside is that it would create a new forum that might not get many posts at all because of the more specific subforums.
On the plus side however, it would give a place for S&P and M&P to dispute each other which I feel could be healthy.
I don't know, its just a suggestion.

It would be great if there could be subforums of subforums, like maybe 10 levels deep.
So you could have a main forum called Art Then a subforum called Music Then subforums under that like Classical, Rock, Disco, etc. Then subforums under those like Baroque, Romantic, AvantGarde, etc.
Probably too much of a hassle to implement, I suppose.

Still a good idea

Yeah, why limit it to 10 levels though, let's make it 20!

Well I mean that is absurd.
But you have the ability to use subforums, why not take advantage of it?

A very stupid idea indeed, I agree. 90% of forums will become ghost towns.

Exactly. This is why forums with little activity need to be merged into other, similar forums.

I would just like to take a moment to thank the administration for responding to this idea.
Oh wait, nobody has.
Thanks anyway guys.

What that you say Doobs? The Annonator swooped by here a moment ago!
I feel that more grouping of forums tends to dilute the subject matter as people are too lazy to highly categorize their discussions and just give up, or continue posting in the parent forums anyway. I'm into the whole organization factor of it, but agree that it runs the risk of spawning ghost towns.
In so far as the "Mind Body & Spirit" grouping is concerned, I'd rather see that as a parent category rather than parent forum, alongside the existing "Mushrooms, Mycology and Psychedelics", "Community", "Feedback and Administration" categories.

I guess that kind of kills the idea of users making their own forums without admin intervention.

why not stick chemistry in pharmacology in other drugs discussion? That would be a discussion of other drugs.

Well not exactly. You might want to discuss psilocybin extraction in Chem/pharm, which is clearly not an "other drug".

Because not all chemistry discussion is related to drugs.
