Forum Suggestions

I have a few suggestions for the forums, and I hope they're easy to make happen!

First, I have noticed that there have been a lot of posts going into incorrect forums lately. Food discussions in the jewelry and music forums for starters. For the sake of new crafters and keeping the forums organized, could these threads be moved to where they're more appropriate?

Second, there have been some duplicate threads being posted across multiple forums. One post will show up in General Craft and the very same post will also be in Chit-Chat or something. Each thread will have different responses. Could these be merged?

Third, some threads are being copied when they don't have to be. It's not that huge of an issue--just makes it harder to find older, more relevant threads.

And fourth, there are a lot of threads showing up as having -1 replies, and I have no idea what that's about since they're not actually readable when you click the link to them.

I don't want it to sound like I'm complaining Tongue I just hope to see the forums a bit better organized so every subforum can stay on topic better.

All those sound good... I also miss the "recently posted" section that just lists all recent posts regardless of section (at least I couldn't find it since the design switch"

I think the recently posted section is just on the home page now... at least that's the only place I've seen it. There's also the "Recent Topics" thing to the side of the forums, but it's all the way on the bottom of the side bar.
