[QUOTE="jdavis, post: 1178275, member: 8704"] I find it funny there is some resistance to leaving General, once I started hitting other forums I found I hardly ever come back to the jumbled mess that is General (I got to this thread by the link in the thread in Meta :) ). It seems really funny to me that people don't like to post in other forums because nobody would read it there, and people don't go to other forums because nobody post there, sort of a catch 22 isn't it. Combining some of the forums would make some things easier but many of them were split off for a reason to start with. I'd really hate to see forums merged back in with General as it just moves to fast and most people never go back past one or two pages in general, threads that seem to have very long lifespans (like in Plots and Places) may get more replies but they would last hours instead of months and would be hard to ever find or revive. Things in general tend to burn out in a day or so, many in hours and then they disappear into the wasteland that is pages 3+. That could happen to a lesser extint in merging other forums too, the faster one would just drown out the slower one. [/QUOTE]
