Cut the number of forums down

the best way of improving the website is just kill the 'over-forumitis", junk all of them down to just

General
Dinghies
Multihulls
Keelbooats

and scrap the rest - why the hell do you need a 'how old is your boat' forum. Sure then you can have great threads like the "photos" one running for ages.

if people want to comment on this issues of the day - e.g. current standings in the holland regatta, amazing photies fom the lark inlands, then where do people post?  - dighy development  - well it's not that exactly.

if you check the boards website you'll notice they have about 7 or so, focusing on General, Kit, Techmique, Locations, Weather, Sessions and Vans - less forums = more activity in each one, and people more likely to read more threads. If someone is interested in "insure issues" then just start a new thread/topic in the general forum surely.

Sort it out Mark when you have 5 mintes please. I can't imagine anyone else actually likes it as it is.

I like it just how it is! well said calum!

After you have clicked on "Forums" try clicking on "Active topics". Then you will only get the latest postings.

Anyways, welcome to the Forum. Give it about one week, then you should have sussed it all out by then

Top tip Laser 4000 - don't use phrases like 'Sort it out Mark' when you want something done here. I've just had a very hard week and don't need comments like that. Try wording like 'How about looking into a change?'

I do think we need a general re-think on the forum headings though. Also I will be linking threads to articles and other sections soon to give the site a more 'community' feel. Much easier on the new server.

Other than that, welcome to the forum!

I'm sticking up for Mark on this one! The forum is fine, although maybe slightly cluttered, but overall very good!
