If you split the forum into a bunch of small 'rooms', if I'm any ol' member and I have carbs, I don't go read the FI forum, because I have carbs.
But in the format we have now, some of those carb people might 'stumble' into the FI thread, learn something new, and think "Hey, I'll try that too!"
Also, having the same conversation over and over rehashes ideas, makes people rethink their opinions, share new experiences and new knowledge.
Multiple forums are too segregated and completely obliterate the community feel we have.
Not to mention all of the
bitching that starts with people posting, "This thread belongs in the _______ forum!
" I'm certainly not dealing with that BS.
