    I want a single forum for video game discussion. I don't want to visit three different sections just to talk about some games. What's the point of splitting it into sections, as if we have a incredibly active community that is actively discussing so many gaming topics at once that it doesn't all fit into one page. It's stupid and not needed at all, it's also pointlessly confusing. Can anyone justify why we have this piece of **** in place to begin with?

      There was a time I'd disagree, but now I'd agree that it's kind of pointless. The only forum that actually gets an activity is Console Gaming.

        In the end does it even matter?

          To be honest, I'm indifferent either way. I agree that streamlining it by combining them all into one big game discussion forum would work, but I also am fine with it as it is. Either way goes for me.

              To be honest, I don't think it's a huge problem but it can be annoying switching between the different sections.

                We already changed it from a single section into three subsections, and everyone seems to have been fine with it so far. Plus, the mods already went to the trouble of moveing the threads, so why undo it? And I don't see what's so confusing about t. If the topic was about a game made on a console, then it'll be under the consoles section. If it was made on a handheld, then it'll be on a handheld system. If it's about a series that's on more than one system, it wont be under any of the subforums. Simple as that.

                If you're haveing trouble finding stuff, then ue the serach function at the bottom of the page. That's what it's there for.

                      Yeah, it sucks balls, but I've gotten results most of the time. Hopefully IPB wil fix that in an update.

                          It's not that big a deal. If the Console section is the only active section, will it really matter if they are all merged? How will that help, it'll just be more cluttered.

                              I'd agree with you, but that might scare potential new members away.

                                    Do not question the will of Nemphtis, just merge the topics. I don't expect you to agree or disagree with my holy words, simply carry out my commands. It will literally take Max about fifteen seconds to merge all three sections into one. I'm sorry that you lazy ass moderators will lose all your hard work, but hey that's life so get over it and continue slurping that Nintendo penis. Come my children, let us now troll in the name of Nemphtis.

                                      Personally, I'm not sure that I see a reason to make a change at this point in the forum's life. But I will take it under consideration for the next forum revision.
